The Li Dazhao Martyr Cemetery is located in the Wan'an Cemetery in the Haidian District, which preserves the original appearance of the public burial site of the martyr Li Dazhao in 1933 and the tombstone of the martyr Li Dazhao buried together at that time. It is an important base for commemorating and remembering the martyr Li Dazhao and conducting revolutionary traditional education and patriotic education.

In 1984, the Li Dazhao Martyrs' Cemetery was announced as the third batch of Beijing municipal cultural relics protection units. The Li Dazhao Martyrs' Cemetery has a themed exhibition entitled "Immortal Merits - Exhibition of Li Dazhao's Life and Deeds", which shows Li Dazhao's glorious life closely linked with the history of the spread of Marxism in China, the history of the founding of the Communist Party of China, and the history of seeking happiness for the Chinese people led by the Communist Party of China.
