Korean War Martyrs’ Cemetery in Shenyang

Korean War Martyrs’ Cemetery in Shenyang, Military cemetery in Huanggu District, Shenyang, China

The Korean War Martyrs' Cemetery in Shenyang, covering 120,000 square meters east of Beiling Park, contains a 40,000-square-meter burial area divided into east, west, and north sections with 124 graves of heroes and model soldiers, including Huang Jiguang, Yang Gensi, and Qiu Shaoyun. A memorial hall on the east side displays portraits and personal effects, and a 6-meter marble monument stands inside the main gate.

The Northeast Military Region began building the cemetery in early 1951 and completed it that August. In October 1962 a marble monument over six metres tall was added inside the gate, inscribed by Dong Biwu on the front and with a seven-character poem by Guo Moruo on the back. Since 2014 the remains of Chinese People's Volunteer Army soldiers repatriated from South Korea have been interred here.

The cemetery is the resting place of 124 decorated heroes, including special-class heroes Huang Jiguang and Yang Gensi and first-class heroes Qiu Shaoyun, Sun Zhanyuan and Yang Liandi. Since 2014 it has also received the remains of Chinese People's Volunteer Army soldiers repatriated from South Korea, transferred in annual ceremonies.

The cemetery lies east of Beiling Park in Huanggu District, Shenyang, and covers 120,000 square metres, with the grave area of 40,000 square metres divided into east, west and north sections. The marble monument stands just inside the main gate, so it is reached first on entering. The memorial hall is on the eastern side of the grounds.

The cemetery also receives the remains of Chinese People's Volunteers recovered in South Korea. After a 2013 agreement between China and South Korea, exhumation began on 19 December 2013, and the first transfer took place in 2014, with further transfers in subsequent years.
