Historical evolution

Initial construction

According to the records of Licheng County, in 1904, the Jiaoji railway was completed. Zhou Fu, governor of Shandong Province, and Yuan Shikai, governor of Zhili, Minister of Beiyang, played the role of allowing the imperial court to open commercial ports in Jinan, Zhoucun and Weixian. There were customs, departments, bureaus, vegetable markets and parks in Shangbu county. In the planning of Jinan commercial port, it is determined to set up a park within 8 hectares between jingsan road and Jingsi Road, Weisi road and xiaoweiliu road. At that time, it was the first park set up in Shangbu District in China, which was called "Shangbu Park".

the Republic of China era

During the period of the Republic of China, the park was a place for all walks of life and the early party organizations of Shandong Province to engage in revolutionary activities. According to historical records: on October 20, 1920, the founding meeting of "Lixin society" (the party's peripheral organization) initiated by Wang Jingmei was held in the park's "sizhaoting", which laid a solid foundation for the party's construction in Shandong; on September 8, 1924, the anti imperialist alliance, led by Wang Jingmei and other 13 organizations, including the hairdressing and printing trade union federation, held a meeting of 10000 people in the park The Congress fully exposed the crimes of imperialist aggression against China and called for the abolition of unequal treaties, pushing the anti imperialist Patriotic Movement in Jinan to a new climax.

On May 30, 1925, Lu Bojun led the workers of Xincheng ordnance factory, railway Jinpu Dachang and Lufeng yarn factory to gather in the park to support the May 30 massacre in Shanghai. On June 15, five groups, including Jinan General Chamber of Commerce, commercial port chamber of Commerce, commercial trade union and banking trade union, set up a business Shanghai case support Committee in the park's "four photo Pavilion", and all commercial port firms also set up a business Shanghai case support Committee on June 25 During the strike, the words "compatriots died miserably and were closed for mourning" were pasted on the front door. On June 29, a memorial meeting was held in the park to commemorate the people who died in the May 30th massacre. More than 100 groups and more than 200000 people attended the meeting. On March 12, 1925, Dr. Sun Yat Sen, the great revolutionary pioneer, passed away. The people of Jinan were all sad. On April 4, a memorial meeting was held in the park. The Preparatory Committee of the meeting and the National Party members escorted Dr. Sun Yat Sen For example, in the park, elegiac couplets presented by various organs, organizations, schools and business houses were hung all over the park. On the elegiac couplets, it was written: "all the five continents look forward to the revolutionaries who have moved mountains and reclaimed the sea together, and the whole nation mourns the people who have done their best to open the way for the country". At the meeting, more than 100000 pieces of propaganda materials were distributed to praise Dr. Sun Yat Sen's great achievements. In memory of this great revolutionist, the "Shangbu Park" was renamed "Zhongshan Park".

the period of the war of Resistance Against Japan

Before the Anti Japanese War, the park was managed in an orderly way. The municipal government office had detailed and strict management measures for visiting the park, operating stalls, taking care of public property and entertaining guests, and appointed the administrator as the park manager to handle all public affairs of the park. After the Japanese army occupied Jinan, they built radio stations, built shrines, built turrets and dug trenches in the park. As a result, the area of the park was sharply reduced, the scenery was degraded, and the old view was not restored, showing a withering scene. Jinan was liberated in September 1948, and the park was under the management of the Construction Bureau. From 1949 to 1953, the park was transferred to the Municipal Bureau of culture and education as the cultural propaganda position of Jinan City. During this period, the city library, reading room and skating rink were newly built, and cinemas were rebuilt to provide places for Jinan people to visit, entertain and study after work. Therefore, Zhongshan Park was renamed people's Park.

Renovation and reconstruction

In August 1953, the park was returned to the Construction Bureau, and the municipal garden management office was responsible for the management of the park. After years of renovation, the park was officially managed in June 1958. In 1981, with the spring breeze of reform and opening up blowing all over China, the landscape industry developed rapidly. The municipal Party committee and the municipal government attached great importance to the construction of the park and allocated special funds to carry out the comprehensive reconstruction of the park. Within two years, in view of the superior location and narrow area of the park, the principle of plant landscaping was adopted, and the method of seeing the big from the small was combined with the traditional Chinese gardening art And strive to set up more scenic spots in the limited space, so as to achieve the ornamental effect of flowers in four seasons and scenery rising step by step.

After reconstruction, Zhongshan Park is the only comprehensive park integrating sightseeing, rest, entertainment, accommodation and catering. On November 12, 1986, on the occasion of the 120th anniversary of the birth of Dr. Sun Yat Sen, the name of "Zhongshan Park" was restored. In the past century, it has played an immeasurable role in urban greening, beautification and tourism.
