Lonely Planet review for Monument to the Martyrs of the Railway Protection Movement

Plopped in the middle of the People's Park's bonsai and perennials is the Monument to the Martyrs of the Railway Protection Movement (1911). This obelisk memorialises an uprising of the people against corrupt officers pocketing cash intended for railway construction. People's Park was a private officer's garden, so it was a fitting place to put the structure.
