BEIJING: The Museum of the Communist Party of China, a new landmark in Beijing, has become a popular destination in the past year for people from home and abroad to learn about the centenary experience of the Party.
The museum, which marks its first anniversary this month, has seen more than 1 million visitors since its launch, including 100,000 students, the museum said.
Opening to the public on June 19, ahead of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the CPC in July 2021, the museum is devoted to permanent and comprehensive exhibitions of the Party’s history.
