Editor's Description

Last updated: Jan 26, 2026
This traditional two-floor house was Mao's residence when he was working in Shanghai in 1924 as CPC's Central Committee’s Organization Department Minister. Built in 1915, It’s a beautifully restored shikumen building just off Maoming Bei Lu. Mao stayed here for just under a year in 1924, and then didn’t come back for another 31 years. Still, it's been turned into a museum of Mao’s activities in Shanghai. It houses three exhibition areas and is organized into a timeline of events of which Mao was involved in, offering original documents and photographs in displays. Entry is free.
