The Red Well: Why has it stayed in China's memory for 90 years?

Why has an ordinary well entered textbooks and been remembered by generations for 90 years? Where did the saying "When you drink water, remember those who dug the well" originate?

As 2026 marks the 90th anniversary of the Long March victory, CGTN's Yang Xinmeng visits the historic Red Well in Ruijin with international military officers. Around the well, students and visitors continue to gather today. #RetraceTheLongMarchRoute #LongMarch #Ruijin
