Description

The Monument to the People`s Heroes Chinese: 人民英雄纪念碑; pinyin: Rénmín Yīngxióng Jìniànbēi is a ten-story obelisk that was erected as a national monument of China to the martyrs of revolutionary struggle during the 19th and 20th centuries. It is located in the southern part of Tiananmen Square in Beijing, in front of the Mausoleum of Mao Zedong. The obelisk monument was built in accordance with a resolution of the First Plenary Session of the Chinese People`s Political Consultative Conference adopted on November 30, 1949, with construction lasting from August 1952 to May 1958. The architect of the monument was Liang Sicheng, with some elements designed by his wife, Lin Huiyin. The civil engineer, Chen Zhide 陈志德 was also instrumental in realizing the final product.[1]The monument has also served as the center of large-scale mourning activities that later developed into protest and unrest, such as the deaths of Premier Zhou Enlai which developed into the Tiananmen Square protests of 1976 and Hu Yaobang which later developed into the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, which was claimed as an anti-government movement by the Communist Party at that time.
