Photographer’s Note

The Mausoleum of Dr Sun Yat-sen is one of the places we visited in Guangzhou. I liked the bright colors of teh building and of the flowers in front.

"As a famous commemorative structure of Chinese revolution built in 1931, Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum was designed by the well-known architect of modern China Lu Yanzhi, who was also the designer of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum in Nanjing. The building complex is composed of the arch over the gateway, the auditorium and the stoteyed buildings on its east side and west side. The auditorium is octagonal in the shape of the palace hall."
