Donggu Revolutionary Base
东固革命根据地
Hailed as the 'Eastern Jinggang', an early red base area with a memorial hall, historic sites and traditional villages in the mountainous She ethnic township.
Donggu lies in Donggu She Ethnic Township in Qingyuan District. Starting in 1927, one of the earliest revolutionary bases in southwest Jiangxi was established here. It echoed Jinggangshan and earned the nickname 'Eastern Jinggang'. Sites include the Donggu Revolutionary Base Memorial Hall, a martyrs' monument, the former meeting site and the former Red Army hospital. The mountains are densely forested and rich in She ethnic culture. It is about 60 km from Ji'an city, with many mountain roads, so self-driving is recommended. The memorial hall is generally free to visit, and opening hours are as posted on site.
