Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum is the mausoleum for our “Father of Modern China” and the “Forerunner of the Revolution” – Sun Yat-sen (孙中山). With a great and inspiring design, this mausoleum was started in 1926 and completed in 1929 with an area of 80, 000 sq. m. (about 20 acres), located at the south slope of the Purple Mountain facing with fertile plain and leaning against a green mountain, close to Xiaoling Mausoleum to the west and Linggu Temple to the east. It is also Sun Yat-sen’s wish to be buried near Purple Mountain.
Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum was listed as “National AAAAA Tourist Attraction” in 2006 and “Architectural Heritage in the 20th Century in China” in 2016.
