Yingxiong Mountain & Jinan Campaign Memorial
英雄山
A martyrs' cemetery and urban hill in Shizhong District, with a revolutionary martyrs' monument on the summit and the Jinan Campaign Memorial and an antiques market at the foot.
Yingxiong Mountain was originally called Sili Mountain. It was renamed because it is the burial place of martyrs, including those who died in the Jinan Campaign. The Revolutionary Martyrs Monument on the summit is one of Jinan's landmarks, and climbing to the top offers views of the city and Qianfo Mountain. The Jinan Campaign Memorial at the foot of the mountain uses artifacts, sand tables and reenactments to recount the 1948 battle that liberated Jinan. Admission is free, and the memorial is usually closed on Mondays. On the north side of the mountain is the Yingxiong Mountain Culture Market, a well-known market for antiques, calligraphy and painting, busiest on weekend mornings. It is accessible by bus and suits a half-day visit.
Opening hours
Mountain open all day; memorial hall about 09:00–16:30, closed Mondays
