Event Information | The Youth Volunteer Groups of the Three Museums Jointly Organize a Memorial Ceremony on the Theme “Remembering Revolutionary Martyrs and Promoting the Spirit of Heroes”

From the heroic martyrs of the revolution to the vanguard of liberation, and now to the People’s Army that stands ready to face peril, they have always been the most beloved among us. The countless martyrs who devoted themselves to the nation are those we should cherish most in our hearts.

Today is the August 1st Army Day, marking the 95th anniversary of the founding of the Chinese People’s Liberation Army. At 8:00 a.m., young volunteers from the Tang Xianzu Memorial Hall, the Municipal Museum, and the Wang Anshi Memorial Hall in Fuzhou City gathered at the Fuzhou Revolutionary Martyrs’ Cemetery to carry out a memorial ceremony themed “Remembering the Revolutionary Martyrs and Promoting the Heroic Spirit.”

Under the guidance of the staff, volunteers carried out the public memorial ceremony in an orderly manner, laying wreaths and observing a moment of silence in tribute to the martyrs. They then paid their respects in turn at the Martyrs’ Monument, the martyrs’ graves, and the Wall of Names, offering flowers beneath the wall as a final gesture of homage, before visiting the Memorial Hall of Revolutionary Martyrs.

The solemn memorial park commemorates the touching deeds of our heroes, and in this era of peace, it carries the cherished aspirations of those who came before. The pines and cypresses stand silently, steadfast and unyielding—just as many revolutionary martyrs left behind not a single word, yet gave their lives with heroic resolve. Yet we firmly believe that they have all beheld a future bathed in radiant light. In their brief lives, they forged immeasurable value; they burned brightly with the passion of youth, becoming beacons in dark times, illuminating the path toward an age of peace. Volunteers have pledged to always hold gratitude in their hearts, to remember how hard-won today’s life is, and to strive to create even greater value for society.
