Shanghai Red Route Full Day Tour: The Birth of CCP Full Day Tour: The Birth of CCP

Walk the hidden alleys of the Former French Concession and uncover the espionage, secret meetings, and revolutionaries who shaped modern China.
Uncover the secret history hidden beneath Shanghai’s most glamorous neighborhoods.

Beyond the neon lights of the Bund and the modern skyscrapers lies a thrilling history of underground movements, international espionage, and radical idealists.

This immersive 6-hour walking tour takes you back to the turbulent 1920s, a time when Shanghai was divided into foreign concessions and became the unlikely cradle of the Chinese Communist Party (CPC).

Morning: The Spark in the French Concession
Your journey begins in the heart of Xintiandi. Behind the chic boutiques lie traditional Shikumen (stone-gate) houses. Here, you’ll step into the Memorial Concourse of the First National Congress of the CPC. Your expert guide will bring history to life, sharing stories of the 13 young delegates who met in absolute secrecy in 1921 under the radar of foreign police.

Next, take a short, scenic walk down the tree-lined avenues to Yuyangli, the secret cradle of the Socialist Youth League. Discover how this ordinary residential alley masked a clandestine language school used to smuggle young revolutionaries out to Soviet Russia.

Midday: Mid-Century Charm & Lunch

We’ll take a relaxed, stress-free break around the historic Sinan Mansions or Xintiandi. Enjoy a curated lunch (at your own expense) featuring authentic Shanghainese dim sum or local cafe culture, letting you soak in the contrast between historical grit and modern luxury.

Afternoon: Constitution, Courage, and Clandestine Networks

Re-energized, we head to Fudeli (The Second National Congress). This is where the party’s first official constitution was drafted. Right next door, we’ll visit the Plain Girls’ School, China’s very first underground school for female activists, showcasing the fierce women who fought for gender equality and revolution.

We wrap up our deep-dive tour at the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee. Utilizing state-of-the-art multimedia, you’ll experience the high-stakes, cinematic reality of operating a secret communication hub in the 1930s "White Terror" era, where a single coded message meant life or death.
