Former Residence of Zhou Enlai

　　The Office of the Chinese Communist Party Delegation in Shanghai was established in June 1946 during the negotiations between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party after the victory in the War of Resistance against Japan. It served as the operational base of the Chinese Communist Party Delegation in Shanghai at that time. Due to restrictions imposed by the Kuomintang, the office was publicly referred to as the residence of General Zhou Enlai, commonly known as the Former Residence of Zhou Enlai. After its establishment, Zhou Enlai, Dong Biwu, and others frequently met with people from all walks of life here and held press conferences for both domestic and international journalists. They elaborated on the Party’s consistent stance on peace and democracy and exposed the Kuomintang government’s conspiracy of pretending to seek peace while actually preparing for civil war. The revolutionary activities and struggles carried out by Zhou Enlai, Dong Biwu, and others at the Former Residence of Zhou Enlai made significant contributions to expanding and consolidating the revolutionary united front and to the liberation cause of the Chinese people, marking a glorious chapter in the history of the Chinese revolution.

　　The Memorial Museum of the Office of the Chinese Communist Party Delegation in Shanghai was officially opened to the public in September 1986. It consists of two buildings located at No. 73 and No. 71 Sinan Road, covering an area of 2,400 square meters with a total construction area of 1,049 square meters. No. 73 is the restored historical site, a three-story Western-style garden house built in the 1920s. No. 71 houses an 80-square-meter exhibition titled "Photographic and Historical Exhibition of the Office of the Chinese Communist Party Delegation in Shanghai," and a bronze statue of Zhou Enlai has been erected in the garden. The main features of the entire memorial include the restored Former Residence of Zhou Enlai, the bronze statue of Zhou Enlai, and the photographic historical exhibition. The Shanghai Former Residence of Zhou Enlai is the only well-preserved and open memorial site dedicated to Zhou Enlai in Shanghai. It was listed as a municipal-level cultural relics protection unit of Shanghai in 1959 and restored to become a memorial museum in 1979.
