Description
After the first congress of the Chinese Communist Party was raided by French Concession Police, delegates rented a tourist boat to carry on their deliberations. The boat is now a designated site of pilgrimage due to its historic role in the revolution, dubbed the 'Red Boat.' Recently, Chinese Premier Xi Jinping, upon visiting the site, called for the adoption of a 'Red Boat Spirit' alluding to the pioneering thought and courageousness of the CCP delegates in 1921.
