A temple to the PLA

In October, 1949, soldiers from the PLA‘s 28th Army who landed on Quemoy were wiped out by ROC forces. A young girl who had previously been rescued by the army made clay figures to commemorate the 27 soldiers she knew, and in 1993 built this temple in Chongwu, Fujian.

The temple founder, Zeng Hen, is now 67.

The temple was completed in 1996. The following year, local residents erected a memorial to the 27 soldiers, followed by a memorial hall.
