Jinjiang Academy
金江书院
The former site of a Qing dynasty academy, and an important location where the Red Army paused during the Long March in 1935. It now houses Long March exhibits and a VR memorial hall.
Jinjiang Academy is a well-preserved Qing dynasty academy building in Huili Old Town, with courtyards arranged in progressive layers. In May 1935, during the Long March, the Red Army passed through Huili and held the important Huili Conference here. The site is now a venue for red culture, and a VR memorial hall opened in 2025, where visitors can learn about the Red Army’s crossing of the Jinsha River and the Huili Conference. Admission is free, but opening hours should be checked on site. Located in the northwest of the old town, a visit takes about 40 minutes.
