Patriotic Education Exhibition Area

You are now entering our museum's Red Patriotic Education Exhibition Area. "The hard-won happiness we enjoy today stems from this great era and the heroic sacrifices of countless revolutionary martyrs!" This is the heartfelt expectation Director Zhang Jingxuan holds for every museum docent and visitor.

Centered on the evolution of the national anthem, this exhibition traces the journey from a single melody to the birth of a significant era. At 3:00 PM on October 1, 1949, during the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China, Chairman Mao solemnly declared to the world from the Tiananmen Rooftop in Beijing: "The People's Republic of China and the Central People's Government are hereby established!" Instantly, the square erupted in thunderous cheers and fervent enthusiasm.

Amid the stirring strains of "The March of the Volunteers," Chairman Mao pressed a button, and the first vibrant five-starred red flag of New China slowly rose. The entire crowd stood in solemn silence, paying respects to the national flag. Across the square, fifty-four ceremonial cannons fired twenty-eight salutes, symbolizing the glorious twenty-eight-year journey of arduous struggle led by the Communist Party of China.

Experience the legendary power of the national anthem at the patriotic education exhibition area! Clear and passionate love, solely for our China!
