Yuhuatai Memorial Park 🇨🇳 Nanjing
雨花台烈士陵园 is a Memorial Park and Tourist site in Yuhuatai. To enter the park you will need to register or sign in. (I'd suggest taking a passport, but may not be needed)
The park is home to the statue of nine figures who represent and commemorate the lives of the of the communists killed, executed and buried here. The monument (pic2) and Memorial hall each hold there place on the site too, with the memorial hall holding artworks and cultural relics.
The site has an unusual feeling and it isn't a spot for a fun walk. It's an opportunity to read, to learn and to try and consider the actions of the past.
雨花台烈士陵园 would be the Chinese to search in Didi or map app.

Nanjing - Yuhuatai Scenic Area
“Yuhuatai’s history dates back to the Liang dynasty. Legends tells of a monk named Yun Guangzhou who preached a sermon so moving that the heavens rained flowers , hence the name Rain Flower Pavilion.“
📍This scenic spot is located in Nanjing’s Yuhua district. I believe the closest subway station is Zhonghuamen (中华们). You can then take a bus ride from there.
🥢Food and drinks: I saw one little shop near the entrance of the park selling drinks and ice cream. I didn’t see anything else while visiting the park so definitely make sure you bring some water and a little snack with you.
I was there for about 1.5 hours.
