China's first museum dedicated to the Cultural Revolution is to open later this year in Dayi County of southeast China's Sichuan Province.
The exhibits will bring back vivid memories of those unusual times.
They will include over 100 leftist sculptures, photos of traitors and innocent prisoners of which little is known to the public, more than 1,000 porcelain busts and some 30 thousand badges of Chairman Mao Zedong, as well as other mementos unique to that time.
A dining hall in the style of that time will bring back the memories of workers, farmers and soldiers eating communally and ridding themselves of bourgeois liberalism.
The Cultural Revolution lasted from 1966 to 1976, bringing chaos to education, economy and society in general.
