Xi'an revolution park generally refers to the revolution park

Xi'an revolutionary park is located in the north of the east section of Xiwu Road, Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province. It is a provincial cultural relics protection unit, "party history education base" and "Xi'an youth patriotism education base". The revolutionary Park was founded in March 1927 to commemorate the death of the soldiers and civilians in Xi'an by the Shaanxi national army on the eve of the northern expedition.

The revolutionary Park covers an area of more than 150 mu, with martyrs' temples and revolutionary pavilions for the public to remember. In April 1926, the Northern Warlord Liu Zhenhua led 100000 troops from western Henan to enter Guanzhong and besieged Xi'an. Under the leadership of national army generals Li Yunlong (Li Huchen), Yang Hucheng and Wei Dingyi, the army and people of Xi'an fought back and held the city for eight months. After Feng Yuxiang rescued the city, the army and people of Xi'an fought together, forming a situation of internal and external attack. They defeated Liu Zhenhua and the rest of the army in one fell swoop It was only in November 1926 that the siege was broken. In December 1926, at the initiative of Feng Yuxiang, people from all walks of life in Xi'an piled up a large tomb in the East and the West. A pavilion was built between the two tombs, named "revolutionary Pavilion", and 150 surrounding areas were built into parks, named "revolutionary Park".

There are mainly revolution Pavilion, Zhonglie temple, Donglie temple, xilie temple, Dongxi tombs, bronze statue of General Yang Hucheng built in 1997, white marble statue of Comrade Liu Zhidan standing in 2005 and other revolutionary memorial buildings in the park. In 1983, the revolutionary pavilion was listed as a key cultural relic under municipal protection. In October 2019, the State Council approved and announced the eighth batch of national key cultural relics protection units.

Historical evolution

In the spring of 1926, on the eve of the northern expedition, Liu Zhenhua, the bandit leader, with the support of Zhang zuolin and others, gathered a force known as "100000 men" in an attempt to capture Xi'an and expand the territory of the Northern Warlords. Liu Zhenhua besieged the city for eight months, set fire to 100000 mu of wheat fields outside the city, forced the soldiers to dig a three kilometer ditch around the city, and forced the whole city to surrender. General Yang Hucheng and Li Yunlong (Li Huchen) of the National Army led the whole city to stick to Xi'an. After that, general Feng Yuxiang entered Shaanxi and smashed Liu Zhenhua's plot. At that time, it was called "two tigers guarding Chang'an". During the period of guarding the city, about 50000 people died, accounting for a quarter of the city's population at that time.

In February 1927, in order to commemorate the death of the army and the people in Xi'an, Feng Yuxiang led a public memorial ceremony to build a "revolutionary Park", built tombs, built martyrs' temples and revolutionary pavilions for the public to remember. After the liberation of Xi'an, the people's government allocated funds to renovate the park and planted 10000 trees. In 1952, to commemorate the martyrs Wang Taiji and Wang Taicheng, a martyr pavilion was built in the southeast corner of the park, in which there is a monument. Building flower beds, pavilions, opened up a lotus pond. The fountain in front of the revolutionary pavilion has Taihu stone. It is said that it is a relic of the Xingqing palace of the Tang Dynasty. It has its own scenery in the garden. There is a spacious exhibition room in the east of the garden, with paintings and calligraphy on display. The "chess house" in Southwest China is a place for chess lovers. In the north is a man-made lake, on which a curved bridge and a pavilion are built, known as the "pavilion in the center of the lake". There are rockeries in the northwest, stone caves, Maoting and so on. Southwest is a newly opened amusement park with electric carriage, aerial cable car and other amusement facilities.

origin

In the spring of 1926, on the eve of the northern expedition, Liu Zhenhua, the bandit leader, gathered a force called "100000 men" in an attempt to capture Xi'an and expand the territory of the Northern Warlords. Liu Zhenhua besieged the city for eight months, set fire to more than 6600 hectares of wheat fields outside the city, and forced the soldiers to dig a 3 km long ditch around the city in an attempt to force the whole city to surrender. Yang Hucheng and Li Yunlong (Li Huchen), the generals of the national army, led the whole city to stick to Xi'an, which was called "two tigers guarding Chang'an". After that, general Feng Yuxiang entered Shaanxi and smashed Liu Zhenhua's plot. During the period of guarding the city, more than 50000 people died in Xi'an, accounting for a quarter of the city's population at that time.

In February 1927, in memory of the soldiers and civilians who died during the siege of Xi'an, Feng Yuxiang led the public to make a public sacrifice, build a revolutionary Park, build a grave on the ground, build a martyr's temple and a revolutionary Pavilion for the public to remember. The revolutionary Pavilion is an antique building with octagonal cornices and three drops of water. On the couplet, there is a couplet inscribed by General Yang Hucheng: "life is eternal, death is eternal; achievements are full of the three Qin Dynasty, resentment is full of the three Qin Dynasty."

When the revolutionary Park was first built, it reached Shangde road in the East, Beixin street in the west, Xiqi road in the north and Dongxin Street in the south. When Chongli Road (now Xiwu Road) was opened up in 1928, the revolutionary Park was divided into North and south parts. In the south, the revolutionary Park Stadium (later changed to Xi'an People's Stadium) was built, and the park was reduced to the north half, which was eroded again in the late Republic of China. After the founding of the people's Republic of China, the revolutionary park has become an important place for Xi'an citizens' leisure and entertainment.
