Mausoleum of Mao Zedong

The Mausoleum of Mao Zedong is one of Beijing’s most visited attractions, welcoming thousands of people from around the world every day. It is not merely a museum or a monument; it is an active mausoleum housing the body of the founder of the People`s Republic of China within a glass sarcophagus. For some, it is a place of remembrance and reverence; for others, it offers a chance to witness firsthand a significant part of 20th-century history.
