The Memorial Hall of the Victims In Nanjing Massacre By Japanese Invaders
Ladies and gentlemen, on the way to The Memorial Hall of the Victims In
Nanjing Massacre By Japanese Invaders, I‟d like to tell you something
about its historical background.On Sept 18th, 1931, Japanese started a well-prepared war of aggression to China, Japanese troops occupied three provinces of northeast China within five months.A key moment came on July 7th, 1937.The Japanese troops were carrying out training exercises near Wanping , a strategically important town outside Beijing.Theydeclared that one of their soldiers was missing and assumed that the Chinese army might have captured him and so demanded a search for him in Wanping town, but the Chinese side refused and said they would do the searching themselves.Taking this as an excuse, the Japanese army attacked the Chinese army and the Chinese army fought back.The battle took place at a bridge leading to the town.This is called Lugou Bridge or Marco Polo Bridge Incident, which marked the beginning of a full-scale invasion of China by the Japanese.After Beijing fell, they occupied Shanghai on November 12th, then marched toward Nanjing, the capital of the Republic of China, General Tang Shengzhi led the national revolutionary army to defend the city but ended in failure.This is known as the “Defending Battle of Nanjing”.On Dec 13, 1937, the Japanese army occupied Nanjing and during the following six weeks they started a bloody massacre in the city.About 300,000 innocent civilians and unarmed Chinese soldiers were brutally slaughtered in mass or by individual beheadings in the killing races.Some were buried or burned alive.More than 20,000 women were raped and many of them were then killed.The memorial hall stands on the site of the massacre at Jiangdong Gate during the Nanjing Massacre.It was built in 1985, and was expanded first from 1994 to 1995, and then from 2005 to 2007.The new memorial hall was completed and opened to the public on December 13, 2007, which was the 70th anniversary of the Nanjing Massacre.The memorial consists of four parts, namely the assembly ground , the exhibition hall, the site of the massacre and the Peace Park.The new hall is shaped like the bow of a ship that rises high above the ground, representing „the Ship of Peace‟.Its profile looks like a broken saber.Seen from above, it resembles a sword turned into a plowshare.The new hall was designed by architect He Jingtang from South China University of Technology while the old one by architect Qi Kang from Southeast University.Both designs are distinctive in style and innovation.Now you can see a group of copper sculptures, the one that stands more than ten meters high in the east is named A Ruined Family, which shows a heartbroken mother holding her dead child killed in the Nanjing Massacre.This sculpture in front of us is named The Cry of the Spirits.The whole sculpture conveys a sense of the power of justice and the resistance of the Chinese nation.Here is the Assembly Square.Citizens of Nanjing assemble here on December 13 every year to mourn over the victims and pray for peace.At the other end is the bow of „the Ship of Peace‟ composed of steps.The wall in the distance is called the Wall of Calamity.Carved on the black granite are the words „Victims 300,000‟ in 12 languages including Chinese, English, Japanese, German, Portuguese, Greek, Dutch and others.To the east of the Wall of Calamity is a cross-shaped monument that bears the Arabian numbers 1937.12.13-1938.1, indicating the six weeks of Nanjing Massacre.The rubble stones under it indicate that the memorial hall was built above the Mass Grave of theMassacre.Here is another sculpture in the shape of a bell frame, which signifies „the 300,000 fallen people‟.Three black triangular prisms and five brownish red circles form the number 300,000, and three black horizontal beams in the middle give the shape of the Chinese character for „people‟.Hung on the frame is the Bell of Peace, which was donated by the overseas Chinese in Japan.Carved on the bell are pictures and words about the Nanjing Massacre.Its Chinese name Bell of Peace was written by Qi Gong, Honorary Chairman of the Chinese Association of Calligraphers.The bell is sounded on December 13 every year.Now we come to the Exhibition Hall of Historical Records.On the first floor is A Human Holocaust: Historical Facts of the Nanjing Massacre and on the second floor is The Victory in 1945.Please go on to visit the hall.In order to maintain solemnity inside the hall, tour guides are not allowed to speak loudly, so please read the English introductions by yourselves
This section is about John Rabe, a German businessman who helped Chinese civilians by setting up Nanking Safety Zone.This respectable gentleman is known as “Schinder in China”.The rows of folders keep the records of the victims.Now we come to the statue complex.This is the “Footprints of the Witnesses of History”.It is 40 meters long and 1.6meters wide.The footprints come from 222 survivors of the Massacre.On the back of the statues of the survivors, there is a long poem on the bronze wall called “Wild Snow”.Written by Chinese military poet Mr.Wang Jiuxin, the poem narrates and accuses the crimes committed by the Japanese invaders.This is the bronze statue of the American Chinese Zhang Chunru or Iris Chang as her English name.She is the writer of the famous book “the Rape of Nanking, the Forgotten Holocaust of World War II”.Here is the inscription in Chinese “Nanjing Massacre Memorial” carved on the front stone wall with Deng Xiaoping‟s handwriting.Now you can see 17 stone tablets standing on both sides of the alley in the yard.They represent the victim monuments in other parts of Nanjing.Three groups of large-sized sculptures are embedded in the south wall.They are the reproduction of the whole process before and after Nanjing Massacre in accordance of historical photos.Next is the 4-meter-high marble statue “the Call of a Mother”.Here is the granite stone wall with the name list of the victims, also called the “Crying Wall”.It is 43 meters long and 3.5 meters in height.Now we come to the “Display Hall of Victims‟ Remains”, next to it is the “Mass Grave”.Here are the Basso-relievo depicting the scenes of the Massacre, the Memorial Square and the Meditation Hall, etc.Now we arrive at the platform in the Peace Park.In the middle of the Peace Park is a 160-meter-long water pond, resembling a mirror of history.And on the right is the Wall of Victory.The whole embossment is 140 meters long, which represents the joy of Chinese people for winning the victory in the anti-Japanese war.This is the white marble sculpture “Peace”.A mother holding her child with a dove flying free.The sculpture is 30 meters high with the moral to remember the 300, 000 slaughtered compatriots in Nanjing Massacre.Nanjing Massacre is not only the misfortune of the Chinese people but also of the world.It was an unscrupulous trampling of human civilization.People from China and other parts of the world visit the place and express their grievances as well their wishes for the world peace.Experiences of the past, if not forgotten, are a guide for the future.The memorial hall presents not only to the Chinese but also to successive generations of the Japanese that only an acceptance and understanding of the past wrongs can create a better future for the mankind.Thanks for listening!

第三篇:侵华日军南京大屠杀遇难同胞纪念馆
侵华日军南京大屠杀遇难同胞纪念馆观后感
2011年11月5日,我怀着沉重的心情立足于侵华日军南京大屠杀遇难同胞纪念馆前。
此刻我脑袋里不断的呈现着这几个字:血色的1937、血色的南京。1937年12月13日这个
日子不仅是南京人的痛苦回忆,更是全中国人的痛苦回忆…..纪念馆外广场上,一座高耸的“家破人亡”雕像,其中的母亲仰面朝天悲痛。她双手环
托的孩子已经先她而去,此刻她的手心已经没有了温度,而却是充满了孩子冰冷血液的寒冷;她的心里没有温度,而却是充满了愤恨的恼怒与麻木。在进入纪念馆的途中,竖立着不同的雕像,主题是“逃跑”:失去了双亲的孤儿们在禽兽的杀声里、在尸横遍野的巷道里、在已
经麻木了的惊吓与恐惧里寻找着自己渺茫的希望、年幼无知的孩子在母亲冰冷的身体旁痴痴的望着母亲期待着她的怀抱,而却不知母亲此刻已经带着痛苦离开;踏着炮火儿子搀扶着母
亲一步步向着前方走去,抛却了死亡的威吓……这一幕幕真实而逼真的刻画冥冥中放佛把我们带到了那个炮火连天痛苦的时刻当中,感触颇深极为震惊,历史不能忘却。
进入馆区,双脚踏在白色的鹅卵石上,鹅卵石的下方埋藏着那些被屠杀的人们,每走一
步我们放佛是在他们的身体与鲜血中前进,我们感受到了他们的悲痛。在往里行进,“遇难
者300000”豁然出现在我们的视野里,这样的数字向我们说明着什么,日本帝国的残暴、日本帝国的无耻、日本帝国的血腥、中华民族的懦弱。
进入展区,首厅里是一个“12秒”之说,在厅堂正面的墙上,悬镶着汉白玉花环,每隔
12秒,就会有一个遇难者的相片伴着钟声出现在花环中,然后随着钟声的再次响起而退去。
走进主展区,里面陈列了当年日军屠杀现场照片,历史档案资料,中外人士当年对这次
历史惨案所写的纪实、报道和出版的专著、图书、报刊,至今尚健在的1000多位幸存者的名册、证言、证词和实物;当年屠杀南京军民的日军军官和士兵的日记、供词;崇善堂、红
卍字会、红十字会等慈善团体掩埋尸体的照片、统计表、臂章证词以及远东国际军事法庭和
中国军事法庭对南京大屠杀主犯松井石根、谷寿夫审判的照片、判决书等。这些档案记录着
日本人的罪行,记录着我们中国人不能忘却的国耻。
主展区中有一块区域,展列着被活埋的中国人的尸骨。看到这些尸骨,我放佛看到了他
们渴望被拯救的眼神,看到了他们绝望的表情,看到了日本人可恶的嘴脸,举起双刀的残忍的表情。
行至尾厅,另一个震撼人心的“12秒”:每隔12秒,就会有一滴水从高空落下,侧面墙上贴着遇难者遗像的灯,水声低落后就有一个遗像消逝,一位遇难者遗像的等熄灭,代表一个生命的消逝,接着另一个生命。生命是珍贵的,每个人只有一次,我们每个人都应该珍惜生命。
步出展馆,我的心情是错综复杂的。凝视着“和平雕塑”,我在心底呐喊我们需要和平,这声呐喊不仅仅是为那些死去的人更是为了我们活着的人。虽然日本侵华的战争已离我们远
去,但是这个世界仍旧是不平稳的,这个世界尚处在拥有战争的时局当中。
血色的1937、血色的南京、血色的中国,仇恨可以忘却,但是国耻却要长记于心。
第四篇:侵华日军南京大屠杀遇难同胞纪念馆参观记
前事不忘 后事之师——侵华日军南京大屠杀遇难同胞纪念馆参观记
湖北省宜都市杨守敬小学 杨艳丽
到南京,侵华日军南京大屠杀遇难同胞纪念馆是很值得一去的地方。
到达后,只见纪念馆的外观是灰白色调方正的建筑,上书“侵华日军南京大屠杀遇难同胞纪念馆”,我的心顿时沉重起来。炎炎烈日下,等待进馆的人群排着长队。借此等待的时间,我看见右侧是一组黑色雕塑,表现了侵华日军的暴行——幼小的孩子被惨杀,年迈的老人仰天痛哭;年轻的妻子遭受蹂躏,丈夫却无力保护;敌机狂轰滥炸之下,儿子牵着颤巍巍的老母逃难,何处是乐土,何处是生路?
进入悼念广场,一条两边布满鹅卵石的不宽的路伸向史料陈列馆。迎面映入眼帘的是一块高大突兀的石壁,“遇难者300000”,用中英日三国文字镌刻,斗大的字,让每个进入的中国人一眼就看得见,让每一个进入的日本人一眼就看得见,让每一个进入的不同种族、肤色的人一眼都看得见1 30万!其实这还是保守的统计,实际在大屠杀中遇难的人数远不止这个数字。
史料陈列馆呈平顶半地下墓室形,看着不高。进去后先要经过一处厅堂,幽暗的灯光就像发自地狱,我的心情越发沉重了。
首先以实景展示的是日军攻破南京的经过。1937年1 2月,日军从上海进逼南京城,国军浴血抵抗,但未能有效阻击其多路进攻。12月13日,在一片混乱中日军攻入城内,长达六周的大屠杀拉开序幕,人类史上最惨绝人寰的悲剧无情上演!战役中牺牲的国军将士可歌可泣的事迹令人动容,他们的照片高悬壁上,他们的名字光耀山河,与日月同辉!(观后感 www.xiexiebang.com)需要记住的还有一个名字——松井石根,正是他下令日军可以在城内烧杀淫掠,为所欲为(此人在战后接受审判,作为乙级战犯在南京被执行死刑,没有逃脱历史的惩罚)。
当然最令人愤慨的是侵华日军罄竹难书的罪行,馆内以照片、实物、影像、名人信札、侵华日军回忆录等详实确凿的史料证据展现出来。遍布六朝古都大街小巷的日军官兵就是恶魔、野兽,难以想象的罪恶在那漫长的六周里每分每秒都在发生,昔日的金陵胜地沦为炼狱,成群的手无寸铁的百姓被驱赶到长江边,遭遇机枪疯狂扫射,鲜血染红江面。为节省子弹,日军干脆逼迫人们走向“万人坑”——活埋。每12秒就有一个宝贵的生命消失,1 2秒,1 2秒!惨无人道的杀人游戏是野兽取乐的消遣,一颗中国男子的头颅被搁在路边木栅上,死去的面容上满布凄苦悲伤,嘴里被塞进半支香烟!这颗头颅还被当做皮球踢来踢去,围观者发出鬼哭狼嚎般的狂笑,他们不是人!中国人的命就这么不值钱吗?!我感到满身的热血在沸腾,满腔的怒火在燃烧!
在经历了1 20分钟沉痛与悲愤的心灵旅程后,我走到出口。墙壁上镌刻着醒目的大字——“前事不忘,后事之师”,“铭记历史,忘记仇恨”。
中日两国,本为一衣带水的邻邦,远在隋唐时期,日本曾数次派遣使者来到中国学习先进经验。到了近代,日本积极效法欧美国家,实行明治维新,一跃而为亚洲强国,徒弟超过了师傅,转而狼子野心大暴露,妄想吞灭幅员辽阔的华夏九州。
以史为鉴,可知兴替。回顾南京大屠杀惨剧,可上溯至1 840年古老的国门被侵略者坚船利炮打开为发端的百年磨难史与屈辱史,我们获得的教训与经验何其沉痛与深刻。
是的,历史不能忘记,要刻骨铭心地记住!我们应该时时警醒,刻刻反思,将这股力量化为振兴民族与国家的动力!
第五篇:南京大屠杀遇难同胞纪念馆观后感
《南京大屠杀遇难同胞纪念馆观后感》
适逢抗日战争胜利70周年,我和同学于7月8日参观了侵华日军南京大屠杀遇难同胞纪念馆,在庆祝胜利和缅怀在抗日战争中牺牲的同胞时,更不能忘记历史惨痛的教训,以史为镜。
那天小雨连绵,前来参观的市民和游客络绎不绝,从他们的身上,我看见了愤慨和历史责任。我们的心情无比沉重,尤其是在庄严肃穆的灰色围墙下。首先映入我们眼帘的是被扭曲的人物雕塑,他们是战争的不幸者,更是这段历史的见证人。他们的无声哭泣,控告侵华日军的禽兽行径,暗示后人勿忘国耻。
随着馆区入口处参观者队列的缓缓移动,我们进入了纪念馆,在眼前的是一片由石子铺成的广场,象征着白骨,让当年的情形就不自觉的在你的脑海里浮现,任何一个人也会为此场景而震撼的。顺着小道,我们和行人一同进入了位于地下部分的纪念馆。
拾级而下,我们看到被炮火轰击过的城墙,投影在墙上的视频画面让整个人仿佛置身于战争中。我看到了不幸的市民和丑恶残忍的侵华日军,还有禽兽们留下的痕迹。进入地下后,首先是一个巨大的遇难同胞的灵堂,地面上的盏灯象征着不幸罹难的人们。我们默哀与沉思,来到了让人愤怒和悲伤的万人坑边上。里面的白骨清晰可见,数量之巨大让人魏然起敬,场面之惨烈让人义愤填膺,侵华日军的禽兽行径由此可见。我想此时参观者的无声胜有声。
我们已经来到国际友人约翰•拉贝先生的展区。
在南京,在毫无人性的日军的魔爪下,存在着这样一群国际友人,他们为南京难民提供避难区,为他们提供食品与医疗,而在其中最突出的一位便是拉贝先生,他用自己的厂区挽救了数以万计的中国人,中国人不能忘记他的贡献。
最后我们走过尾厅,头顶的和平鸽一直从过去飞向未来。我们渴望和平,热爱和平,不惜以一切代价维护和平。这是我们的态度。作为当代中国大学生要清楚的意识到落后就要挨打的道理,因此我们必须努力提高自身,更加刻苦的学习文化知识,以报效祖国为己任,让中国自强于世界民族之林。这是献给抗日战争胜利70周年最好的礼物。
