CultureYeping Village: The Chinese Soviet Republic and Mao’s former residence
CGTN’s Ioana Gomoi visits Yeping Village in Ruijin, Jiangxi, once an early political center of the Chinese Soviet Republic. A Hakka ancestral hall served as the Provisional Central Government’s offices, while Mao Zedong lived nearby. During an assassination attempt, a bomb hit a tree outside his room but failed to explode; the tree and Mao’s former residence still stand today.
