Hekou Red Army Town in Kefang

Hekou Red Army Town in Kefang is a national AAAA-level tourist attraction.

The scenic area is situated in the southwestern part of Kefang Township, Jian’ning County, at the junction of Fujian and Jiangxi, encircled by mountains and characterized by a well-preserved ecosystem and pleasant environment. Following the fall of Jian’ning County in May 1934 during the fifth counter-“encirclement and suppression” campaign, it served as a key stronghold for the armed forces of the Second Combat Sector of the Fujian-Jiangxi Military District and the Fujian-Jiangxi Base Guerrilla Units in their continued guerrilla struggle. It is known as the “Little Jinggangshan” and the “Little Rear Base of the Red Army” in the Fujian-Jiangxi border region.

The area preserves well-maintained revolutionary historical architecture, with numerous historical traces left by the lives and battles of the Red Army. There are six provincial-level cultural heritage protection units, as well as the humanistic landscape of Taiping Ancient Stockade and the natural landscape of the Ancient Ginkgo Grove. In recent years, comprehensive renovations and restorations of the revolutionary sites within the scenic area have been carried out, along with continuous improvements to tourism infrastructure and services. The area has now developed into a comprehensive red tourism destination integrating sightseeing, travel, study tours, and leisure.
