Yingqian Revolutionary Martyrs' Cemetery
Yingqian Revolutionary Martyrs' Cemetery is a cultural tourism attraction and a classic red tourism site.
Yingqian Revolutionary Martyrs' Cemetery is located on Zhuling, the center of Yingqian Town. The cemetery faces south and looks north, symbolizing the Long March northward to resist Japan and the loyalty toward Beijing. The monument is cast from coarse aggregate cement, with the seven large characters "Revolutionary Martyrs Memorial Tower" engraved on the front, and on the back, an inscription by Marshal Peng Dehuai: "The blood of the martyrs nurtured the flowers of the revolution." The four sides of the tower base are inlaid with four pieces of terrazzo steles. The one on the true north side is inscribed with a preface. The east, south, and west steles bear the names of the martyrs who heroically sacrificed their lives during the Yingqian Uprising. There is a pavilion in front of and behind the memorial tower. From the front pavilion facing due north, a new "Martyr Zhu Zhongran Tomb" has been built. Zhu Zhongran was a high-ranking official from Yingqian who died during the Soviet era. The rear pavilion houses a stele inscribed with "Immortality". On both sides of the memorial tower stand propaganda slogans carved by the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army at that time. To the east are three revolutionary tombs: the tomb of the famous General He Jiachan; the tomb of General Huang Zhentang, with the inscription personally written by a Marshal; and the tomb of Liu Guohui, a veteran Red Army soldier who endured the Long March.
