Red Fourth Army Memorial & Renju Village
红四军平远纪念馆·仁居红色村
Renju, Pingyuan’s old county seat, preserves sites where the Red Fourth Army was stationed, a Red Army Street, and Hakka ancient towers and bridges.
Renju Town was the old county seat of Pingyuan. In 1929, Mao Zedong and Zhu De led the Red Fourth Army through here during its campaigns along the Fujian–Guangdong–Jiangxi border region, and the army was stationed in the town. The Red Fourth Army Pingyuan Memorial presents this history. The town still has Red Army Street, Hakka houses, and ancient towers and bridges. Renju Village has been designated both a red village and a traditional village, and visitors can stroll the old streets to learn about Hakka culture. The memorial is generally free to enter but may be closed on Mondays. Renju is about 20 km from Pingyuan county town and pairs well with Wuzhishi and Shangyuan Village.
