Poetic eulogy to Xiangzhou martyrs composed by Ye Jianying

Buried here are 27 martyrs killed in the 1925 Xiangzhou Military Coup. Their tombstones are surrounded by pine trees and flowers. Also inscribed on the stone tablet is a Memorial to the Jizhi (Lofty Aspirations Unfulfilled) Pavilion by Minister Ye. The gigantic embossment wall shows heroic figures unfolding the revolutionary battles of various time periods in Zhuhai's history.
