Editor's Note:
The mainland TV series Silent Honor, which chronicles the story of Wu Shi and other undercover agents of the Communist Party of China (CPC) on the island of Taiwan, has led to a noticeable increase in citizens spontaneously visiting Wu’s tomb to pay tribute. In recent days, the Unknown Heroes Memorial Square in Beijing’s Xishan National Forest Park and Wu Shi's tomb in the Futian cemetery have drawn large crowds of visitors paying their respects. According to staff, such a high volume of visitors had been previously seen only during the Qingming Festival. (Photos: Cui Meng/GT)
