The museum, which opened to the public in January 2021, is built around the history of Ninghua during the revolutionary period. It presents the county as one of the important birthplaces of the Long March spirit.

"Rather than exaggerating the stories, the museum seeks to showcase what happened as accurately as possible," Lin said. Its educational programs also extend into schools, government offices, and businesses.

The museum has received nearly 1.5 million visits since opening, with an average of about 250,000 visitors a year. Research and study groups have become an important part of its audience, and the number of such groups this year has risen by about 30 percent from previous years.
