Introduction

Located south of Zhonghuamen in Nanjing, the hill cluster composed of three peaks covered in pine and cypress trees is a highly-regarded red tourism scenic area. The entire area is divided into six different sections, including the Martyrs Cemetery District, the Scenic Sites and Historical Sites District, the Yuhua Stone Culture District, the Yuhua Tea Culture District, the Amusement and Activity District, and the Ecological Forest District. In the Memorial Hall of Revolutionary Martyrs and the Martyrs' Deeds Exhibition Hall, visitors can appreciate many valuable relics such as books, manuscripts, clothing, and writing tools of soldiers during wartime. The park offers beautiful scenery, making it not only a popular tourist destination but also an ideal place for Nanjing citizens to find leisure and entertainment. Every September, the Yuhua Stone Arts Festival is held here, while a large azalea exhibition takes place from March to June. It is also a great place to view plum blossoms and magnolia flowers.
