Ye Jianying Memorial Park
叶剑英纪念园
A memorial park in Huxing Village, Yangan Town, the hometown of Marshal Ye Jianying, including his former residence, a memorial hall and a bronze statue square.
Ye Jianying Memorial Park is located in Yangan Town, Meixian District. It consists of Marshal Ye Jianying's former residence, a memorial hall, a bronze statue square and the Huxing Mountain Garden. The residence is a Hakka 'suotou house' (lock-head house) built in the Qing Dynasty, where Ye Jianying was born in 1897. The memorial hall uses artifacts and photographs to present his life and revolutionary career. Admission is free, but visitors must bring their ID card. The park may be closed on Mondays (check on site). It is about 35 kilometers from downtown Meizhou and about 6 kilometers from Yannanfei Tea Field, so the two are well suited to a single day's visit.
