Wuxiang festival retraces heroic tales of resistance
Young people inspired by 'Taihang spirit' of sacrifice and selfless dedication
Tian emphasized that studying the history of the Eighth Route Army is essential for summarizing historical experiences and promoting the spirit of the resistance. This year, the museum plans to collaborate with the Museum of the War of Chinese People's Resistance Against Japanese Aggression to host a temporary exhibition and organize an academic seminar to commemorate the 80th anniversary in Wuxiang.
In recent years, the county has been working toward becoming a nationally renowned Red tourism destination, actively creating a national 5A-level scenic area centered around the Eighth Route Army cultural tourism zone.
They aim to establish a cultural tourism industry ecosystem that leads with Red tourism and fosters diverse coexistence, striving to surpass 3 million annual visitors and achieve a direct tourism revenue of 3 billion yuan ($420 million) by 2035.
"As young people in the new era, we should integrate our personal ideals into national development, much like the heroes of the resistance," said Guan Lixia.
