The top of the monument
Until 1955, opinions on the form of the monument top have not been unified. Finally, it was suggested that since the form of the monument top is not uniform, the treasure top should not be used. Didn't Dr. Sun Yat-sen say that "the revolution has not been successful, and comrades still need to work hard"? Then let future generations improve the shape of the top of the monument!
"In this way, Baoding was not installed at the top of the monument, leaving a platform about two meters square to see today's Monument to the People's Heroes." Xie Changhe said: "Now it seems that the shape of the Monument to the People's Heroes is an unfinished masterpiece!"
