Former Sites of the Qingshuizhai Uprising

Category: Tourist Attractions 👁 100 views

The Former Sites of the Qingshuizhai Uprising are located in Qingshuizhai Village, Xiangchang Town, Yuexi County, Anhui Province. In 1930, one of the four major uprisings in the Eyuwan region—the Qingshuizhai Uprising—broke out here, leading to the establishment of the Qianshan Independent Regiment and the creation of a Soviet regime, the Qianshan County Revolutionary Committee. Later, the "Qianshan Independent Regiment" was successively reorganized into the Qianshan Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army, the 34th Division of the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, and the 2nd Independent Division of the Central Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army. These forces operated across eight counties including Qianshan and Huoshan, becoming an important part of the Eyuwan Soviet Area and helping to unify the Eyuwan Revolutionary Base. The former sites of the uprising, including the political department, propaganda department, arms repair workshop, military supply office, and inspection office, have been preserved, with most still serving as residences for local villagers.
