Former Site of Dade School
达德学校旧址
The former site of a late Qing modern school in Guiyang's old city, where Wang Ruofei and others studied. It is now a free memorial hall.
Dade School was founded by Huang Qisheng and others in the late Qing dynasty. It was built on the site of the Zhonglie Palace and was one of Guizhou's earliest modern schools. Wang Ruofei and Xie Liuyi, among others, studied or taught here, and the school is closely tied to the history of education and revolution in modern Guizhou. The surviving courtyard-style buildings and opera stage are a National Key Cultural Relic Protection Unit, and they are open free of charge with exhibits on school history and biographies. It is located along Huguo Road in the old city. Together with Jiaxiu Tower, Wenchang Pavilion, and Yangming Shrine, it forms a walking route through the historic old city.
