Hundred Regiments Offensive Memorial Hall
百团大战纪念馆
A Hundred Regiments Offensive memorial hall and monument built on the battle site of Shinao Mountain (Lion's Brain Mountain), with views over Yangquan's urban area.
In 1940 the Eighth Route Army launched the Hundred Regiments Offensive, and Shinao Mountain (Lion's Brain Mountain) was an important battlefield in the raids on the Zhengtai Railway. The memorial hall and the towering Hundred Regiments Offensive Monument stand on the mountaintop. Inside the hall, relics, photographs and sound, light and electronic scenes recreate the course of the battle. Outside, trails through the Shinao Mountain Forest Park offer panoramic views over the city. Entry is free but requires advance booking, and the hall is generally closed on Mondays. It takes about 20 minutes to drive up from the city, and a visit takes about 2 hours.
