Martyrs' Monument in Rubu Village

The Martyrs' Monument in Rubu Village is a classic red tourism attraction.

The Martyrs' Monument in Rubu Village is located at the western slope of Dadingshan Mountain in Rubu Village, Yetan Town, Dongyuan County.

In 1940, Ouyang Yuan and Cai Zipei, members of the Communist Party Committee of Heyuan County, worked as teachers at Zuanshou School and established the monument to commemorate local soldiers who died in the War of Resistance against Japan. It later collapsed. In 2005, when Yetan Town was constructing a revolutionary martyrs' memorial monument, they also rebuilt the Anti-Japanese War Martyrs' Monument at the original site. The two monuments stand side by side, built with a mixture of cement and sandstone. The main body consists of three tiers, shaped like a square tower, approximately 5 meters high with a base of 2.5 meters on each side. The second tier features an inscribed plaque engraved with the names of the martyrs, while the third tier has black-painted characters on the eastern side reading “Monument to Anti-Japanese War Martyrs” and “Eternal Glory to Revolutionary Martyrs.”
