Situated on Yuehan Road in Hengyang City, the Former Site of the Southern Hunan Federation of Students is designated as a key national cultural heritage site, making it one of the few well-preserved local memorials of student movements in China. This institution serves as a comprehensive educational base, encompassing national youth education, patriotic instruction, and Party education.
In recent years, the memorial hall has diligently tapped into the rich Red resources, effectively narrating the stories of the revolutionary era and perpetuating the spirit of that era. It has emerged as an ideal place for Party education, immersive Red-themed study trips, and Red tourism.
