From its arrival in Yan'an in 1935 to its departure in 1948, the Central Committee of the CPC led the Chinese revolutionary cause to greater heights, marking a historic turning point that reshaped the destiny of the nation.

Zhang Donggang, Party secretary of RUC, said the Party laid a crucial ideological foundation and practical groundwork for Chinese modernization in Yan'an.

He emphasized the spirit of Yan'an, which highlights the firm belief in the correct political orientation, the guiding principles of freeing the mind and seeking truth from facts, the fundamental purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly, and the enterprising spirit of self-reliance and hard work.
