ROUSED BY THE RED SPIRIT

As this year marks the 100th anniversary of the Communist Party of China's founding, two sacred places for Party members, Zunyi in Guizhou province and Jinggangshan in Jiangxi province, have become more popular among tourists. In Zunyi, a historic meeting was held that led to the ultimate success of the Chinese revolution, while Jinggangshan is the heartland of the CPC's early revolutionary activities. China Daily photographer Feng Yongbin visited both places and recorded people's passion for the red historical sites.
