Chongqing People's Liberation Monument, War memorial in Yuzhong District, China.

The white stone monument rises 27.5 meters high with an octagonal base at the intersection of Minzu Road, Minquan Road, and Zourong Road.

Constructed in 1946 to commemorate China's victory in World War II, the structure replaced a wooden memorial known as the Spiritual Fortress from 1940.

The monument contains historical displays, signed remnants from war heroes, and commemorative inscriptions representing different Chinese provinces behind its walls.

Visitors can climb 140 spiral steps to reach the observation deck, with the monument remaining open throughout the day without entrance fees.

A Rolex clock adorns the upper section of the monument, while white neon lights illuminate its roof during nighttime hours.
