2025 Dandong: From Andong to Dandong through the history of the Korean War

Visiting the Korean War Memorial Hall in Dandong was the most profound experience of my entire trip to Northeast China. The moment I stepped into the exhibition hall, it felt like traveling through time, witnessing the era when Chinese sons and daughters fought valiantly to defend their homeland. From old photographs of troops departing, letters from the frontlines, to realistic recreations of battlefield scenes, every detail commands deep respect. This is not just a museum; it’s a vivid educational lesson. Especially when I stood before the Wall of Martyrs, gazing at those young faces, a wave of reverence and reflection surged within me: it is their sacrifices that have brought us the peace and stability we enjoy today. As a young person, I can better understand the value behind stability and security. This steadfastness and protection instill a sense of reassurance and make me cherish everything I have even more. Whether you are a history enthusiast, interested in national defense topics, or simply a traveler seeking to understand the spirit of the Chinese nation, a visit to the Korean War Memorial Hall is absolutely worthwhile.
