Delegation visits Sun Yat-sen's tomb

A delegation of about 100 people on Sunday visited the tomb of Sun Yat-sen in Nanjing to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the birth of the forerunner of China's democratic revolution. Members of the delegation, which included Sun's relatives and delegates from all over the world, left flowers and bowed three times before Sun's statue. They also walked around the tomb to pay homage to Sun and his contribution to China's national independence, social progress and the welfare of its people.
