Communist Chinese Propaganda Walking Tour

Communist Chinese Propaganda Walking Tour

Interspersed amongst the incredible skyscraper clusters of Shanghai, you will find propaganda ever-present. In this ultra-modern city, it is one of the few things to remind us that we’re in the most powerful communist country in the world. Propaganda remains ever-present, yet mysterious. How can such obvious disparity in wealth be reconciled with communist ideology? What role does propaganda play in the new China?
Walk with us, on a journey of discovery, on our Propaganda Tour. See hundreds of creative propaganda posters, feel their spiritual power, hear about the dramatic history of China's past several decades, and experience how propaganda has rooted itself in China’s education and media to influence daily life.
