An exhibition of documents and artifacts commemorating the 160th anniversary of the birth of Sun Yat-sen, one of the nation's revered revolutionary forefathers, opened at the Memorial Museum of Generalissimo Sun Yat-sen Mansion in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, on Wednesday.
The exhibition features more than 100 rare artifacts and historical documents, systematically representing more than a century of activities commemorating Sun Yat-sen and clarifying his historical significance and background.
The exhibition will run until March 12, 2027.
Two valuable items were added to the museum's collection: a four-volume pocket edition of The Complete Works of Sun Yat-sen revised in 1928, which was donated by Guangzhou resident Fang Lishen; and a bronze bust of Sun Yat-sen cast in the United States in the 1980s.
The exhibition is one of the key events in a series commemorating the revolutionary icon's birth in Guangdong.
"By bringing together over a hundred valuable documents and artifacts, the exhibition vividly showcases Sun Yat-sen's arduous revolutionary journey, his immortal historical achievements and his enduring spiritual legacy from a new perspective," said Huang Bin, a member of the standing committee of the Guangdong Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.
