What travelers say:

Guangzhou Huanghuagang Park, also known as Huanghuagang 72 Martyrs' Cemetery, is the first batch of key cultural relics protection units in the country, and there are 90 martyrs in the park who are listed on the National Martyrs' List. The elegant garden landscape and solemn memorial buildings are contrasted, and 11 ancient trees witness the park's century-old history. On April 27, 1911 (March 29, lunar calendar), the revolutionaries led by Sun Yat-sen launched an uprising in Guangzhou, known as the "March 29 Uprising". After the fierce battle in Guangzhou, the uprising failed because of the invincibility of the crowd. Afterwards, Mr. Pan Dawei collected 72 martyrs' remains and was buried in Honghuagang. Mr. Pan Dawei believes that Huanghuafeng is bone-bone, and has a proud snow frost style, and the spirit of 72 martyrs complement each other, so he changed the name of "Red Granite" to "Huanghuagang" and extended it to this day, "Huanghuagang 72 martyrs tomb" so far. Although the Huanghuagang uprising failed, it became the fire that sparked the Wuchang uprising, opening the prelude to the high tide of the Xinhai Revolution. Mr. Sun Yat-sen commented that the uprising was "stunning the world, crying ghosts, and the battle of the Wuchang revolution and life". Since the completion of the 72 martyrs' tombs in Huanghuagang, the descendants came to worship the sacrifice, held large-scale public sacrifices all year round, and Mr. Sun Yat-sen also visited the tomb in 1912 to remember the martyrs, and wrote five sacrifices in previous public sacrifices. After 1949, the provincial and municipal associations organized large-scale public sacrifices on March 29 every year to remember the British and the British, and have been passed on for a hundred years.
