Former Site of the Beijing Changxindian Supplementary School

The Former Site of the Beijing Changxindian Supplementary School is a classic red tourism attraction.

The former school site consists of three main rooms and two rooms each to the north and south, built in the early years of the Republic of China. In September 1920, after the establishment of the Beijing Communist Group, Deng Zhongxia and others went deep into the Changxindian railway factory to mobilize workers in the struggle to organize the labor movement. On January 1, 1921, the Workers' Supplementary Labor School was established here to spread communist ideology aimed at awakening the working masses and encouraging them to fight against capitalists and rulers. A large number of outstanding backbone figures in the labor movement were trained here, with Shi Wenbin being the most prominent representative. After renovation in 1976, the interior was restored and exhibits were displayed.
