===Memorials===

Memorials to Deng have been low profile compared to other leaders, in keeping with Deng's image of pragmatism. Rather than being embalmed, as was Mao, he was cremated and his ashes were scattered at sea. There are some public displays, however. A bronze statue was erected on 14 November 2000, at the grand plaza of [[Lianhuashan Park|Lianhua Mountain Park]] in [[Shenzhen]]. This statue is dedicated to Deng's role as a planner and contributor to the development of the Shenzhen Special Economic Zone. The statue is {{Convert|6|m|ft|0}} high, with an additional 3.68-meter base, and shows Deng striding forward confidently. Many CCP high level leaders visit the statue. In addition, in coastal areas and on the island province of [[Hainan]], Deng appeared on roadside billboards with messages emphasizing economic reform or his policy of [[one country, two systems]].

A bronze statue to commemorate Deng's 100th birthday was dedicated 13 August 2004 in the city of [[Guang'an]], Deng's hometown, in southwest China's [[Sichuan]]. Deng is dressed casually, sitting on a chair and smiling. The Chinese characters on the pedestal were written by Jiang Zemin, then General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party and Chairman of the Central Military Commission.<ref>{{Cite web |title=China Daily article "Deng Xiaoping statue unveiled" |url=http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/english/doc/2004-08/14/content_365434.htm |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090503063737/http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/english/doc/2004-08/14/content_365434.htm |archive-date=3 May 2009 |access-date=13 March 2010 |website=China Daily}}</ref>

[[Deng Xiaoping's Former Residence]] in his hometown of Paifang Village in [[Sichuan]] has been preserved as an historical museum.

In [[Bishkek]], capital of [[Kyrgyzstan]], there is a six-lane boulevard, {{Convert|25|m|ft|0}} wide and {{Convert|3.5|km|mi|0}} long, the Deng Xiaoping Prospekt, which was dedicated on 18 June 1997. A two-meter high red granite monument stands at the east end of this route. The epigraph is written in Chinese, Russian and [[Kyrgyz language|Kyrgyz]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Turkistan-Newsletter Volume: 97-1:13, 20&nbsp;June 1997 |url=http://www.euronet.nl/users/sota/TN97113.htm |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071004062636/http://www.euronet.nl/users/sota/TN97113.htm |archive-date=4 October 2007 |access-date=2 December 2010}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=In Its Own Neighborhood, China Emerges as a Leader |last1=Pomfret |first1=John |agency=Washington Post |date=18 October 2001 |url=http://taiwansecurity.org/WP/2001/WP-101801-1.htm |url-status=dead |website=Taiwan Security Research |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20020126221126/http://taiwansecurity.org/WP/2001/WP-101801-1.htm |archive-date=26 January 2002 |access-date=18 August 2013}}</ref>
