In the solemn atmosphere, people either bow their heads in silence or speak softly, turning their thoughts into endless prayers and blessings.

Various places have organized primary and secondary school students, authorities and cadres to go to martyrs' mausoleums, revolutionary memorial halls and other places to carry out activities to remember the martyrs and revisit history. Through these activities, people more deeply realize the great spirit of the revolutionary martyrs, and further stimulate the patriotic fervor.
