CrossAurora:“The main purpose of this trip to Jinggangshan is to conduct a research and investigation for the red culture project competition. Secondly, I learned and played here, felt the cradle of the Chinese revolutionary holy land, looked at the former residence of the celebrity, and remembered the martyrs...
Came to the Torch Square of Jinggangshan South Park, the world's first lighthouse. The Jinggangshan Torch Square is located in the center of Jinggangshan City, the cradle of the Chinese revolution. It was built to commemorate Comrade Mao Zedong's leadership of the Autumn Harvest Uprising and the establishment of the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Base. The core of the square is a 12.27-meter-high stainless steel sculpture, symbolizing the spark of revolution after the 87 Conference in 1927. The base is engraved with the Internationale and the March of the Volunteers in five-line notation, implying the inheritance of the red spirit. What you step on is not only the crisp azalea bushes, but also the revolutionary hot land full of osmanthus in August 1927. Touch the temperature of this square and listen to the thousand-year echo behind the flame!”

穿白衬衣的薄荷星:“Octagonal Art Bookstore
A popular online bookstore that produces blockbusters every minute. No matter how small the bookstore is, it is still a bookstore. It is a pavilion in the Internet age. When you walk into it, you will be attracted by the artistic atmosphere. The bookstore is well-arranged as a whole. The postmodern color of the wall is like the cement wall of childhood. The atmosphere of the bookstore rolls the hustle and bustle of the city into the dust, as if walking into another mysterious world
The name of the store makes people involuntarily recall the octagonal building in the old city. The structure of the store pays attention to the beauty of geometric lines. Tatami is placed on many steps. It is not only the appearance of the decoration, but also leaves enough warmth for book lovers. The paper books in the past have always been classics. Read a book a month when you have time to enrich your life knowledge.”
130***28:“It's OK! It's mainly a large-scale performance! There are a lot of extras, and they are also awesome! On the way back, I met the actors going home, and they didn't even need to change their clothes! Haha,”

蛇牛123:“I originally thought that Ciping in Jinggangshan was just a small mountain village. After a long journey from Ji'an to the mountain, I found that this was not a small mountain village at all, but a very beautiful mountain city, surrounded by mountains, with beautiful scenery, and many tall and majestic modern buildings. It was lively and prosperous. After asking around in Henan, I learned that this was the former seat of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government of Jinggangshan City.”
静栖暮柔-舒舒❤️:“The Jinggangshan Longtan Scenic Area is worth visiting. The five waterfalls viewed from top to bottom each have their own merits. The time spent walking down is also suitable. You can take the cable car when you come back, and you won’t be too tired.”
Opening hours: 08:00-17:30 (admission ends at 17:00)
愉行人:“The Jinggangshan Revolutionary Museum is located in Ciping on Jinggangshan Mountain in Jiangxi Province. It houses more than 3,000 revolutionary historical relics. The historical scenes that ignited the Chinese revolution, such as the Huangyangjie Defense War, the Sanwan Reorganization, and the Jinggangshan Meeting, are vividly reproduced here, making it a good place for patriotic education.”
周游列国:“Jinggangshan Revolutionary Martyrs Cemetery is located on the north mountain of Ciping, which is covered with pine and cypress trees. It was built in the shape of a Buddha and covers an area of more than 400 mu. Construction began in 1987 and it was completed and opened to the public in October of the same year. The cemetery consists of four revolutionary cultural landscapes: the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Martyrs Memorial Hall, the Jinggangshan Stele Forest, the Jinggangshan Sculpture Park, and the Jinggangshan Revolutionary Martyrs Monument.”
旅游达人000001:“The panoramic picture is very shocking. Several important historical events in the Jinggangshan struggle are explained in detail. There are also audio-visual demonstrations and explanations. However, it is best to come here in the off-season when there are not many people. In the peak season, you really can't see anything. Figure 1 is the statue of Chairman Mao at the gate, Figure 2 is the famous Zhu-Mao meeting in Longshi, Figure 3 is the first battle of Jinggangshan, the Longyuan Campaign, Figure 4 is the Huangyangjie Defense War, Figure 5 is the life scene of Chairman Mao and the Central Committee in Ciping, and Figure 6 is the scene of evacuating Jinggangshan to the new base in western Jiangxi. I will tell you about it briefly, but only by being there can you have that feeling, that era of continuous artillery fire.”
梦中芭蕉雨:“The place where the Huangyangjie Defense War started has the old trenches, cannon barrels, monuments, and the mountain road where Chairman Mao and Zhu De carried grain. The story of "Zhu De's Shoulder Pole" in the primary school Chinese textbook took place here.”
睡恣@M丶:“They are continuous and blooming in full bloom. They are resistant to barrenness and drought, and bloom silently in the depths of the quiet mountains. They grow on cliffs, on top of mountains, beside narrow paths, or in bushes, just like the revolutionary martyrs who worked hard, were indomitable, and were not afraid of hardships, and are unknown, resolute and brave!”

🔥Food recommendations for Fengyan Zaiqi
The location is near the Jinggangshan scenic area, and the navigation is easy to find
Opening hours until the early morning, late-night snack party ecstasy
Recommended must-order:
Mutton skewers: super large portion, tender meat
Grilled leeks: crispy and juicy, just the right temperature
Grilled eggplant: full of garlic flavor, soft and tasty
Secret grilled fish: crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with optional spiciness
The boss is really nice! Seeing that we ordered a lot, he sent a few skewers to try, and the food was served quickly. The price is very affordable, and you can eat a lot for 40 per person. The spiciness can be adjusted according to personal taste, which is very friendly to those of us who can't eat spicy food~
💡Practical tips:
1. It is recommended to go during off-peak hours, as there are fewer people around 6pm
2. You can go to the specialty store next door while waiting for your meal
3. Remember to bring some cash, as some discounts can only be paid in cash
4. The free peanuts in the store are great for drinking

蓝莓奶油冻:“The specialty dishes in the farmyard are all low-priced dishes with great taste. The signature dishes are the old three, which contain soft and rotten kelp knots, bamboo shoots and other vegetarian food. The soup is very thick and delicious. Fried alkaline water cakes are equivalent to our rice tofu, tofu skin, bitter melon meatballs, etc. These dishes are full of homely flavors and are a very favorite meal.”

This restaurant is a large restaurant with a wide variety of dishes to choose from. The taste is also good. The price is also quite affordable. It is a restaurant worth going to.”
M36***59:“A very popular local bakery. I personally like bread and pastries, so I bought a few when I saw it. The taste is really delicious, whether salty or sweet, the baked goods and ham are very delicious. The sweet red bean filling is also very delicious. The red beans are cooked by myself, not canned. The chiffon cake is also delicious.”
