Includes 144 cremation memorial commemorations.
By inscription, the memorial commemorates Chinese casualties, mainly seamen, of both World Wars who were either buried at sea or whose graves on land could not be found. Commemorates casualties buried in China, other than Hong Kong.
Commemorates casualties who have no known grave.
The number of graves or grave markers in a cemetery may be different from the number of burials, as more than one burial may be in a grave or commemorated on a grave marker.
