CGTN's Ioana Gomoi takes you on a tour of Mao Zedong's former residence in Yeping Village, Ruijin, Jiangxi Province, where he lived and worked from 1931 to 1933.

Step inside this traditional Hakka home, from the dining area and former medical room to Mao's simple upstairs room.

Outside, discover a tree that was struck by a bomb during a 1933 air raid – but it never exploded. The tree still stands today, preserving a remarkable piece of history.
