Where Tradition Meets Revolution

#holidayitinerary

Beyond its classical beauty, the Jieyang Confucius Temple also witnessed key moments of modern history. In 1925, Zhou Enlai worked here during the Eastern Expedition, and in 1927, the Nanchang Uprising forces held meetings within its walls. This dual identity—Confucian shrine and revolutionary command post—makes the site truly unique in China. Today, it is not only a national heritage site but also the only protected monument in Guangdong specifically tied to Zhou Enlai’s revolutionary activities. For travelers, it’s a rare chance to experience both cultural refinement and revolutionary spirit in one place.
