Anti-SARS Commemorative Card: Created by famous sculptors Pan He, Tang Daxi, Liang Mingcheng, sculptor Yu Chang and Zhong Zhiyuan, Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts and Sculpture Academy are responsible for this project.

When we stood in front of the "anti-SARS memorial card", our thoughts quickly returned to the spring of 2003. An unprecedented and sudden disaster befalls this city, testing this city and testing everyone in this city. In this 200-day struggle against Africa, the heroes in front of us, such as Deng Lianxian and Chen, have given their precious lives for the sake of national security, people's interests and people's lives. Among them, there are many unsung heroes who fought in the front line and gave their precious lives. It is they who wrote a new national hymn with their lives, who enriched the national spirit with their lives, and who also innovated the "anti-African spirit" with their lives. This is a selfless and fearless spirit, which embodies the great spirit of the Chinese nation, the great spirit that the good sons and daughters of the party are not afraid to sacrifice themselves to realize the interests of the people, and the "Guangzhou people spirit" that is willing to contribute.

This is an embossed wall. On both sides of the wall are the heads of Ye Xin and Deng Lianxian, representing heroes. The odd relief on the wall is the abbreviation of a head nurse's diary. Different pictures reflect the battle scenes without smoke. Every picture here is very vivid. Their pursuit of perfection reminds us of a great spirit and extensive motivation. Today, when we visit this "anti-SARS commemorative card", we are warning everyone alive that we should learn from their spirit, carry forward the spirit of the Chinese nation, defend the interests of the country and people with our lives, and make contributions to social prosperity, civilization and progress.

(8) Forest bath

Forest bath: The air pollution in most modern cities is very serious. For people who have lived in the city for a long time, the forest bathing place has become the closest tourist destination. Inhaling "negative ions and oxygen" in the morning can not only bring people a happy mood, but also be proved by medical experts to have a significant health care effect. People will feel comfortable when the concentration of negative air ions reaches more than 700 /cm3. When the concentration is above 1000/cm3, it has health care function and can effectively treat asthma, chronic bronchitis, coronary heart disease, hypertension and other diseases.

Made of red sandstone unique to Lingnan, the stigma is shaped like a sheep's head, and the column body is engraved with various "sheep" fonts from ancient times to the present, with a total of 128 sheep characters, which also records the vicissitudes of Guangzhou (Yangcheng) in this period; For example, the word "RMB" on the stone pillar represents the use of coins at that time. Because there is no unified coin, farmers have to take a sheep to the market for items of the same value, so this kind of "RMB" sheep still uses RMB. It means that Guangzhou (Yangcheng) keeps pace with the times and is pragmatic and innovative in today's wave of reform and opening up. The solid cylinder stands like a monument of Yangcheng on the land of South Guangdong.

Yunxi: Located at the rear of the east side of the sculpture exhibition hall, it flows down from the mountain stream and merges into a clear stream, which happily flows through clusters of grass and stones, hence the name Yunxi.
