In the population area at the main entrance of the park, there stands the tall Hainan Liberation Monument. The monument was built in April 1954 to commemorate the martyrs who died for their long-term adherence to the revolutionary struggle in Qiongdao and their heroic crossing the sea. The stele courtyard is square, surrounded by stone fences and four steps, covering an area of 400 square meters. The monument is 14.5 meters high, with eight characters on the front: "Revolutionary martyrs are immortal". There is a copper plate embedded in the stone tablet below, which is inscribed with Comrade Zhu De's personal inscription: "Comrades who persisted in the revolutionary struggle in Qiongdao for a long time and died bravely crossing the sea! You are the best sons and daughters of the Chinese nation, and your's heroic actions have played an indelible role in liberating Qiongdao and China. The merits of martyrs are immortal! "
After the establishment of Hainan Province, in order to meet the needs of economic construction in special economic zones, Haikou Municipal People's Government has continuously enriched the construction and facilities of People's Park, making it newer every year. Visitors inside and outside the island can not only appreciate the southern customs, but also walk into a tropical botanical garden.
Because it is located in the center of Haikou, near the East Lake, Haifu Road, Airport Road and Longhua Road can all be reached, and the traffic is very convenient. Around the park is a lively park road, which is the place where Haikou holds the flower market and fish market for the New Year. Various animal exhibitions, performances and gardening activities are held irregularly in the park. It has beautiful scenery and complete leisure facilities. It is an excellent place for tourists to do morning exercises and take a walk at dusk.
The East Lake and West Lake in Haikou People's Park are the only large-scale artificial water bodies in Haikou city center, and the water quality of the lakes has been seriously polluted for a long time. The environmental improvement project of "one park and two lakes" started on May 2, 20061,and the internationally advanced gravity water treatment system was adopted to purify the lake water. Following the principle of water self-purification, the West Lake water is transported to the East Lake through underground pipelines after being treated by purification equipment, and then flows from the East Lake to the West Lake, forming a virtuous circle of the whole water body, and the water quality can meet the third-class surface water quality standards. The total investment of "One Park, Two Lakes" music fountain and water treatment project reached16 million yuan. In addition to the large-scale water treatment project, it also includes the large-scale musical fountain waterscape project of East and West Lake. When the fountain opened during the Spring Festival, Haikou people were lucky enough to witness this spectacle.
"One Park and Two Lakes" is the collective name of Haikou People's Park, East Lake and West Lake. Located in downtown Haikou, it is the only large-scale park and large-scale water landscape in downtown Haikou, and is known as the "green lung of the city" of Haikou. It is the center of business, leisure and tourism, and also the embodiment of urban culture and historical characteristics. Therefore, Haikou Municipal Government attaches great importance to the comprehensive environmental improvement plan of "one park and two lakes". However, environmental planning can not be separated from water, and there must be a culture of water when there is water, which is the lofty pursuit of mankind. The waterscape fountain project of "one park and two lakes" is carried out under this background. It coincides with the 80th anniversary of Haikou, and the waterscape fountain project is also a precious gift for Haikou's 80th anniversary celebration. Waterscape is also the development of urban modernization, which is of great significance to show history, humanities, enrich citizens' entertainment facilities and enhance Haikou's image. deep
The waterscape design of "One Park, Two Lakes" music fountain takes the East Lake music fountain as the main body, and celebrates the 80th anniversary of Haikou, showing the breath of revitalizing Haikou. In order to express this theme, combined with the artistic combination of environment and water, and based on the performance elements of "science and technology, humanities and ecology", Haikou's beautiful coastal characteristics and vitality are reflected through the innovation, combination and application of water-based science and technology. Based on the principle of "adapting to local conditions and using local materials", the fountain water also uses East Lake water. The East Lake Music Fountain is108m long, 7.8m wide and 80m high, marking the 80th anniversary of Haikou.
The whole fountain project uses LED light source for energy-saving lighting, equipped with two 360-degree omni-directional rotating colorful spotlights. The theme music of the fountain is "Please come to the ends of the earth", "Danzhou tune" and other unique music tracks. When the calm water surface of East Lake rises and falls with the melody of music, more than 870 computer-controlled underwater nozzles spray silver water columns from different directions and angles, changing into various forms of waterscape fountains, which are colorful and dazzling.
