The former site of Baoan revolution is located in Zhidan County, Yan'an City. On June 21, 1936, the central authorities of the Communist Party of China left Wayaobao, passed through Ansai County, and entered Baoan (now Zhidan County) on July 3. Since then, it has become the second "red capital" after Ruijin, Jiangxi Province. On January 10, 1937, the organs of the CPC Central Committee left Baoan and entered Yan'an on January 13. During the security period, the CPC Central Committee successively held 21 meetings of the Political Bureau or the enlarged meeting of the Political Bureau, made a series of major strategic decisions such as the peaceful settlement of the "Xi'an Incident", and successively issued important historical documents such as "instructions on land policy", "letter to the Chinese Kuomintang", "resolution on the new situation of the Anti Japanese national salvation movement and the Democratic Republic". During this period, the first, second and fourth front armies of the Chinese workers' and peasants' Red Army met with divisions, and the long march of the Red Army came to a successful end. In addition, the Anti Japanese Red Army University was set up and a number of middle and senior commanders of our party and army were trained. Although the CPC Central Committee and Chairman Mao lived in Zhidan for a short time, they played an extremely important role in China's revolutionary war. Therefore, they are also known as the foothold of the Red Army's Long March and the starting point of the Anti Japanese war.

The former sites of the Baoan revolution include Mao Zedong's former residence, Zhou Enlai's former residence, the conference room of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee, and the former site of the Red Army University of China. Mao Zedong's former residence is a row of 5-hole stone kilns, which are excavated in the mountains, sitting in the East and facing the West. Mao Zedong's office is the second hole stone kiln in the south. Mao Zedong signed and issued the declaration of the Chinese Soviet government on the brotherhood, and met many times with Edgar Snow, an American journalist who interviewed the northwest Soviet area. He also wrote such important works as "strategic issues of China's revolutionary war" and "statement on Chiang Kai Shek's statement". Together with other central leaders, he formulated the policy of peaceful settlement of the Xi'an Incident and promoted the realization of the second KMT communist cooperation.

Since its establishment in January 1966, the memorial hall of the former site of Baoan revolution has opened to the outside world the former residences of Mao Zedong, Zhou Enlai and other major leaders, the conference room of the Central Military Commission, the conference room of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, and the former site of China Anti Japanese Red Army University.
