About this place

Zhou Enlai's secret wartime headquarters during WWII, camouflaged within a traditional courtyard compound. Free entry.

Drifter says

"Zhou spent eight full years operating from inside these walls. The old writing desk, telephone, and rattan chair left behind speak quietly about the intensity of what happened here. Heavily shaded by trees, rich with espionage history — the exhibits documenting the covert operations run from this compound are genuinely fascinating. Essential for anyone with an interest in China's revolutionary period."
