A delegation of about 100 people on Monday visited the tomb of Sun Yat-sen in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, to commemorate the 152nd 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.
Born in 1866, Sun was the founder of the Kuomintang Party, and is a revered revolutionary leader who played a pivotal role in overthrowing imperial rule in China.
