Lushun Russian Military Cemetery, Military cemetery in Lüshunkou District, China.

Lushun Russian Military Cemetery covers 48,000 square metres at Sanliqiao in Lüshunkou, the largest foreign cemetery in mainland China. Its west part holds over 20,000 Russian soldiers of 1898–1904 and the Russo-Japanese War; the east part has 1,323 graves of 2,030 Soviet soldiers and family members. A 15-metre granite Red Army memorial tower stands at the centre, with a 39.9-metre tower and 5-metre bronze soldier beside the gate.

The cemetery was founded in 1898, when the Russian Empire took Lushun and began burying soldiers who died between 1898 and 1904 and in the Russo-Japanese War. In June 1908 Japan erected the "Monument to the Russian Officers and Soldiers Fallen at Lushun" here. In August 1945 the Soviets expanded the grounds, adding 1,323 graves holding 2,030 people, and in 1955 built the central memorial tower before withdrawing.

The cemetery is known locally as the Soviet Martyrs Cemetery, though it holds tsarist-era Russian graves as well. A 1908 monument to fallen Russian soldiers, the Lushun Zhenmo Lu Bing Jiangzu Zhi Bei, stands in the western section. Since 2005, Chinese researcher Zhang Daxian and Russian Aleksandr Kovali Sasha have worked to identify every grave, publishing a name-and-epitaph list in 2011.

You can walk through the grounds during daylight hours and explore all sections at your own pace without special arrangements. Wearing respectful clothing and maintaining quiet behavior helps preserve the solemn nature of the site.

The cemetery holds 202 Soviet airmen killed in the Korean War, buried in a large square formation in front of the central Red Army memorial tower; the size of each headstone follows the rank of the man beneath it.
