===Tomb=== [[File:Hu Yaobang's Former Residence 037.jpg|thumb|right|[[Hu Yaobang's Former Residence]]]] After Hu's funeral, his body was [[Cremation|cremated]], and his ashes were buried in [[Babaoshan Revolutionary Cemetery|Babaoshan]]. Hu's wife, Li Zhao, was unhappy with the location of Hu's grave, and successfully petitioned the government to move Hu's remains to a more suitable site. Eventually Hu's remains were moved to a large mausoleum in [[Gongqingcheng]] (a county-level city under the jurisdiction of [[Jiujiang]]), a city that Hu had helped found in 1955. Hu's mausoleum is arguably the most impressive tomb of any senior CCP leader.<ref>Lee 310, 314</ref> Li Zhao collected money for the construction of Hu's tomb from both private and public sources; and, with the help of her son, they selected an appropriate location in Gongqingcheng. The tomb was constructed in the shape of a pyramid, on the top of a hill. On 5 December 1990, Hu's ashes were flown to Gongqingcheng, carried by his son, [[Hu Deping]]. The ceremony was attended by [[Wen Jiabao]], numerous Jiangxi public officials, and 2,000 members of the Communist Youth League. Gongqingcheng's factories and schools were closed for the day, allowing 7,000 local citizens to attend. At the ceremony, Li Zhao made a speech expressing her gratitude towards the government and for the people who attended.<ref>Lee 309</ref>
