Shanghai Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall, War memorial museum in Baoshan District, China

The Shanghai Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Hall is a 53-metre tower of 12 floors designed by the Tongji University Architectural Design and Research Institute, with a footprint of 5,100 square metres and 3,490 square metres of floor space. It stands inside Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Park, formerly Linjiang Park, on Youyi Road in Baoshan District. East of the entrance, a carved stone relief titled "Songhu Soul" runs in four scenes: National Calamity, Songhu Fury, Flesh and Blood Battle Souls, and Beacon Fire Land.

The memorial focuses on two battles that took place in Shanghai during the 1930s, fought between Chinese and Japanese forces. These events were precursors to the larger conflict that followed.

The memorial serves as a learning center where visitors encounter Chinese resistance through artifacts, photographs, and historical documents from the war years. Personal stories of soldiers and civilians who lived through this period are woven throughout the displays.

The hall stands 53 m tall with 12 floors inside Songhu Anti-Japanese War Memorial Park on Youyi Road, Baoshan District. Exhibits occupy three levels: the entrance is on the second floor, the third floor holds a photo exhibition on rural Shanghai resistance, and the first floor uses sound, light and objects for the "Blood Soaked in Songhu" display. Look for the "Songhu Soul" stone relief east of the entrance.

This is the only memorial in China specifically dedicated to two battles fought in Shanghai against Japanese forces. No other site in the country focuses so directly on these two particular historical events.
