TAIYUAN, Oct. 10 (Xinhua) -- This year's eight-day National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holiday saw a rising trend in travel, with families and young tourists increasingly turning to "red tourism" to connect with history.

As this year marks the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Chinese People's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the World Anti-Fascist War, many tourists chose to visit revolutionary memorial sites and patriotic education bases to experience a profound sense of national pride and historical connection.

The Memorial Hall of the Hundred-Regiment Campaign in Yangquan City, north China's Shanxi Province, is an option for tourists.

In 1940, to counter Japan's aggression, the Eighth Route Army led by the Communist Party of China launched the monumental Hundred-Regiment Campaign, the largest and longest-lasting strategic offensive led by the army during the war in north China, which greatly boosted the morale of the Chinese military and civilians in fighting the war to the end.
