Zhu Laoda Red Culture Tourism Area

Zhu Laoda Red Culture Tourism Area is a national AA-level tourist attraction.

Zhu Laoda Red Culture Tourism Area is located at No. 18 Lianbang Road, Economic and Technological Development Zone, Linyi City, Shandong Province. The area enjoys convenient transportation, with National Highway 205 running north-south and National Highway 327 crossing east-west. It is also rich in tourism resources, being close to attractions such as Linyi Zoo, the Youth Practice Base, and Polar Ocean World. The tourism area is based on the true stories of numerous revolutionary women from the Yimeng region during the war years, fully showcasing the "Yimeng Spirit" of "love for the Party and the army, forging ahead, hard work and entrepreneurship, and selfless dedication." The area currently includes one Red Sister-in-Law Culture Museum, one factory tour corridor, and one children's experience zone. Supporting facilities consist of a visitor center, an ecological parking lot, Zhu Laoda Dumpling Village, and Greenery Restaurant.

The main attraction of the park, the Red Sister-in-Law Culture Museum, was privately funded and built by Comrade Zhu Chengrong, a new Red Sister-in-Law of Yimeng, with a total investment of over 18 million yuan. Covering an area of more than 2,000 square meters, the museum houses nearly 100 precious revolutionary relics, over 200 other artifacts (of various kinds), and more than 300 valuable photographs. The museum exhibitions are divided into two sections: one dedicated to the old Red Sister-in-Laws supporting the army during the revolutionary war years, and the other highlighting the patriotic contributions of new Red Sister-in-Laws in the new era. With four main themes — Heroes Among Red Sister-in-Laws, Legends of Red Sister-in-Laws, Successors of Red Sister-in-Laws, and the Sentiments of Red Sister-in-Laws — and combining real objects with various display methods such as sound and light effects, sculptures, oil painting scene restorations, the museum tells touching stories of Yimeng Red Sister-in-Laws sending their sons to join the army, supporting their husbands on the front lines, sewing military uniforms, making army shoes, carrying stretchers, pushing carts, nursing the wounded with their breast milk, giving up their own children to raise revolutionary offspring, and running wartime "nurseries." It comprehensively showcases the arduous journey and remarkable achievements of the women of the Yimeng Mountain region uniting with the military under the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party to establish the Yimeng Revolutionary Base. The museum serves as a profound educational and inspirational resource for people in the new historical period to earnestly study and implement the Party’s innovative theories and to ignite patriotic enthusiasm.
