The reporter learned yesterday that the newly-built “Memorial Hall” ashes storage building in the City funeral home was partially opened. The building was newly built by the municipal government with 69 million yuan. A total of 70,000 ashes can be added and 7 memorial halls can be set up to hold memorial ceremonies. On the first floor that has been opened, more than 16000 cinerary caskets transferred from the old building are currently placed free of charge. The second floor, which has not yet been opened, will be designed as a relatively high-grade Ashes position and a family centralized Ashes position. At present, the exterior greening project of the building has entered the final finishing stage.
