So who was the designer who designed Babaoshan National Cemetery? Who was the first person to sleep here? Which martyr was buried under the tombstone 8 1?
1, designer of Babaoshan National Cemetery
As we all know, Babaoshan is located in Xishan, our capital, Beijing. As the burial place of countless revolutionary martyrs and great men in China, the environment here is excellent. As early as the Ming Dynasty, Babaoshan was a good place to provide for the aged. At that time, eunuchs with higher positions would go to Babaoshan to provide for the aged after leaving the palace. At that time, the name was also called zenrinji for protecting the country. It was not until after the founding of the People's Republic of China that it was gradually changed to a cemetery, and the name was determined to be Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery, where countless people who had made great contributions to the construction of new China were buried.
The main architect of Babaoshan Cemetery is Ms. Lin Huiyin. When we mention Lin Huiyin, we often think of her name of "talented woman" and romantic love history. Her poems are widely praised. If you think that she is just a writer, it is wrong. In fact, Lin Huiyin and her husband Liang Sicheng are both well-known people in architecture, and they have a prominent position in the study of ancient architecture in China. Moreover, not only in China, but also abroad, they have made certain achievements in mentioning architecture.
Besides Babaoshan National Cemetery, she also participated in the design of the Monument to the People's Heroes. Lin Huiyin has an extraordinary affection for the ancient architecture in China. When the war broke out, Lin Huiyin and his wife rushed around to protect the ancient buildings in China from being destroyed by the war, and wrote many documents on ancient buildings. After the founding of New China, she also argued for preventing the demolition of ancient city walls and archways, and even expressed her anger and regret by refusing to receive treatment after the failure.
Lin Huiyin has a unique charm. She is intelligent, elegant and knowledgeable, but because she is a woman, everyone often talks about her love life and ignores her own talent and contribution. One of her poems "You are April Day on Earth" is full of beautiful love. If you don't understand it, you will often regard it as a gentle love poem, but in fact it is full of maternal love, which is expressed by Lin Huiyin as a mother.
As an irreplaceable designer in the architectural history of China, Lin Huiyin was buried in her Babaoshan cemetery after her death. She is not a woman who can only talk about the moon, but also can devote her life to her career. Her tombstone is also engraved with her identity as an architect.
2. The First Tomb of Babaoshan
The first undertaker of Babaoshan National Cemetery is no stranger to everyone. He is Ren Bishi, a famous proletarian revolutionary in China. Ren Bishi is in poor health, but he still can't let go of his manual work. He always wants to do more things for the people and the country. No matter during the war or during the period of building the country, he always takes the lead. No matter how hard it is, it seems that he doesn't need to rest. Someone once said that Ren Bishi is "the camel of the people of China".
When he died, countless people cried for it, and his physical condition was not good. Coupled with long-term illness and hard work, Ren Bishi died at the age of 46. People who paid homage to him came from all corners of the country, and wreaths filled his coffin. When he was buried, Ren Bishi was arranged to be buried in Babaoshan Cemetery, which was also the first revolutionary martyr to be buried after the construction of Babaoshan Cemetery.
III. Owner of Tomb 8 1
We said before that Tomb 8 1 is special. Why is it special? Because of his high popularity, He Long, one of the top ten founding marshals in China, lies in Tomb No.81. Marshal He Long began his career of armed struggle since the Revolution of 1911. He first served in the Kuomintang, and later joined the China * * * Production Party under the main influence of Marx, making indelible contributions to the victory of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the construction of new China.
Marshal He Long was upright and indomitable all his life. He always had a deep love for the people and was highly valued by the party and liked by the masses.
However, Marshal He Long, who was deceived by nature, died on June 9, 1969/KLOC-0. After his death, he was not directly buried in Babaoshan Cemetery, which is also the eternal pain in Premier Zhou's heart. It was not until six years after his death that Marshal He Long's ashes were moved back to Babaoshan Cemetery for burial, and his name was left on the tombstone No.81.
