Organized by local women's federations, family story-sharing activities were held in tandem in cities and places which were renowned for rich revolutionary heritage activity and are of great significance in Party history. They include Shanghai and Jiaxing City, in East China's Zhejiang Province, where the first CPC National Congress was held in 1921; Jinggangshan, or the Jinggang Mountains, in East China's Jiangxi Province, renowned as the "cradle of the Chinese revolution;" Zunyi City, in Southwest China's Guizhou Province, where the Zunyi Meeting, regarded as a crucial turning point of the Long March, was held; Yan'an City in Northwest China's Shaanxi Province, then headquarters of the CPC and the center of the Communist revolution from 1935 to 1948; and Xibaipo Village in North China's Hebei Province, where the leadership of the CPC was garrisoned from May 1948 till early 1949, drawing up the blueprint for a new country. The final leg will be held in Beijing, where the CPC emerged victoriously.
During these activities, the participants, including descendants of revolutionary martyrs, representatives of role model families and guides from revolutionary memorial halls, shared touching stories of revolutionary martyrs and how they inherit and pass on the revolutionary spirit.
