Commemorating the heroes

The defenders' strength was deliberately exaggerated to boost morale and mislead the enemy, which earned them the enduring title of "800 Heroes".

Today, part of the warehouse has been transformed into a memorial hall that draws many visitors. The building's west wall, deliberately restored with eight artillery holes and more than 400 bullet marks, serves as a powerful reminder of the fierce combat that once raged there.

Inside the memorial hall, the exhibition areas display artifacts, sculptures and modern technology to re-create the atmosphere of the battlefield.

"We chose to establish the memorial in the original building and restored the old warehouse, including the west wall. Through numerous reconstructed scenes, including wax figures of the soldiers, we aim to present the entire battle as a memorial to the heroism of these brave defenders," Ma explains.
