Bai Yihua Martyrs Memorial Hall, Memorial museum and cemetery in Miyun District, China
Bai Yihua Martyrs Memorial Hall is a museum and cemetery in Miyun dedicated to the resistance against Japanese occupation. The exhibition displays documents, photographs, and objects from this period, while the cemetery section contains the graves of those who fought.
The memorial was established to commemorate the resistance between 1937 and 1945, when the region was under Japanese control. These years were marked by struggle and loss for the local population.
The site honors those who fought during the occupation through preserved personal items and uniforms that visitors can view today. The arrangement of graves tells the story of how these individuals were organized and remembered.
Visitors should plan time for both parts of the site: the museum building and the cemetery grounds. Both areas are walkable and well organized, making it easy to navigate without special preparation.
The cemetery follows a layout pattern that reflects the military ranks and units of the fighters, showing how they were structured. This arrangement makes visitors aware of the hierarchies and organizations that mattered at that time.
