Monument to the martyrs of the 40th army in the liberation of Hainan
In March 2008, 360000 yuan was invested to build the monument to the martyrs of the 40th army in the liberation of Hainan campaign, which was completed and unveiled in May. The monument is designed by Shenyang Lu Xun Academy of fine arts. The design concept is composed of wooden boats, flags, waves and steps. The monument is in the shape of a ship, with the bow raised on the front and fluttering flags on both sides. The overall idea is that the officers and soldiers crossing the sea bravely move forward under the guidance of the war flag.
The pedestal and flag surface of the monument overlap in three layers, which means that the warriors have forcibly landed three times; The martyr's name is engraved on the flag, which means that the flag is dyed red with blood; The whole stele is composed of seven steles, which means "seven firsts" created by the 40th army; The monument faces the mainland, which means that the martyrs look at their hometown from afar and return with their souls on board.
The monument of the 40th army echoes with the hot-blooded monument from afar, which is not only an interpretation of the hot-blooded monument, but also an interpretation of the campaign to liberate Hainan, making the whole park more shocking
