Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum is located at the foot of Zhongshan Mountain in the east of Nanjing. It was called Jinling Mountain in ancient times and Zhongshan in Chinese. It has been called "one of the four famous mountains in the south of the Yangtze River" since ancient times. Because there is purple shale on the ridge, whenever the sun rises or the setting sun shines obliquely, the purple gas rises and is unpredictable, so it is also called Purple Mountain. Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum was built in 1923. When we came to the square along a tree-lined avenue, the first thing that caught our eye was the tall three-door stone archway with the word "fraternity" inscribed by Dr. Sun Yat-sen, which highlighted Dr. Sun Yat-sen's broad mind and lofty ideals. The tour guide said that buildings such as memorial archways are mainly used to celebrate. The statue of Dr. Sun Yat-sen in the square in front of the stone workshop is heroic, and its swaying posture seems to be giving a speech on the fate of the country. Push it to the steps and then to the tomb gate. Take another 300 steps, and you will reach the highest place of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum before you know it. On the top of the mausoleum door is a green glazed tile, and on the forehead is Dr. Sun Yat-sen's calligraphy "The world is public". There are three memorial archways in the memorial hall, and the lintel is engraved with transverse comments such as "nationality", "civil rights" and "people's livelihood". When you walk in, you will see that both walls of the memorial hall are engraved with a brief introduction about Dr. Sun Yat-sen, which is very eye-catching. Entering the tomb from the side door, I saw a circular tomb in the middle, carved with the image of Dr. Sun Yat-sen's bed. It is said that after Mr. Sun's death in Beijing, the coffin was transported to Nanjing by special car and a ceremony was held at Zijinshan Cemetery on June 1929. To this day, people who come to see Mr. Wang are still in an endless stream. Looking up, it is painted with the tomb of Kuomintang party emblem, which is even more solemn under the illumination of light.
Standing on the platform in front of the mausoleum, you can see that the whole Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum is surrounded by green hills and trees. From a commanding height, you can see the whole Nanjing city. With such a broad vision, people's minds are also broadened. I think Dr. Sun Yat-sen's achievements before his death are unparalleled, which is why future generations will build such a magnificent mausoleum to commemorate him. I can't help but think of the wordless tablet I just saw at Lingmen. That's because Dr. Sun Yat-sen doesn't want to engrave his great achievements on the tablet, and later generations can comment at will. I admire my husband more. My heart is full of changing years in China's modern history, and my admiration arises spontaneously.
