Background of the cemetery

After his death at 2:30 a.m. on October 17, 1967, the ashes were placed in Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery. On May 29, 1980, 13 years after Puyi's death, the party and government held a memorial service for Puyi. On January 26, 1995, Puyi's ashes were buried in the Hualong Royal Cemetery near the Chongling Mausoleum (Guangxu Mausoleum) of the Western Qing Dynasty.

As a matter of fact, the Western Mausoleum of the Qing Dynasty was also the burial place of Puyi. Puyi was buried in this cemetery, which was carefully arranged by his fifth wife, Li Shuxian, and also presided over by his wife, Li Shuxian. Thirty years after Puyi's death, Ms. Li Shuxian died on June 9, 1997.

The Royal Cemetery of Hualong is the first memorial park style modern cemetery in Ji'an, which is located in Chinese mainland. Due to the unique position of the cemetery in advocating the new cemetery culture, the Ministry of civil affairs of the people's Republic of China attaches great importance to it. Mr. Cui Naifu, the former Minister of civil affairs, visited the cemetery several times and personally presented the name of "Hualong Royal Cemetery". Because of its unique characteristics, the cemetery has been approved by national ministries and commissions, and is listed as the first one on the home page of the civil affairs government information network "China social welfare network".

geographical environment

Hualong royal mausoleum is located in the world cultural heritage Qingxiling cultural relics protection area. Xiling site has unique geological and geographical advantages, making it far away from all kinds of natural disasters for hundreds of years. The cemetery and the Chongling Mausoleum of Emperor Guangxu, the last imperial mausoleum in Chinese history, come down in one continuous line and are close to each other. The cemetery of the last emperor, AI xinjueluo Puyi, is located in the cemetery. The Huabiao in front of the monument echoes the corner of Chongling palace. The unique geographical environment of the mausoleum has been recognized by all walks of life at home and abroad. Mr. Chen Lifu, who lives on Taiwan Island, also wrote an inscription: "Hualong fairy world a". There are also the tombs of Pu Yi's first wife, Guo Buluo Wanrong, the last empress, and Tan Yuling, the "auspicious and noble man" he really loved.

Based on humanism, Hualong Royal Cemetery believes that every ordinary individual life is the precious choice of the universe and should be treated and respected. And for every hard-working life of the dead dedicated to a comfortable place to sleep. Confucius said that "the people are rich and courteous". The compatriots who are lucky to live in the peaceful and prosperous times of contemporary China should do their best to respect and love our parents and relatives, let them walk with dignity and show their filial piety.

Hualong people highly value the philanthropic spirit of great compassion of Buddhism, and think that to respect other people's parents and relatives is like to respect one's own parents and relatives. It is because of this consensus that Hualong colleagues can always adhere to the principle of "respecting guests as friends and treating the dead as relatives" in the daily management and protection of cemeteries, as well as in the reception and service. If the love and dedication of Hualong people can make the deceased walk with dignity and peace, and let the living fulfill their filial wishes, our work concept will sublimate into a kind of good spirit.
