The hometown of 43 generals since the New China was founded, Xinxian county in Henan province is turning its history of revolution into tourism resources.
During the late 1920s and 1930s, the county was the second-largest communist base in China where three major branches of the Red Army grew.
It is also where the Red Army began an air force by capturing its first plane.
