The Comrade Mao Zedong Bronze Statue Square was built at Chairman Mao's 100th birth anniversary in 1993. It is located in the center of the core scenic area of Shaoshan. It is 10.1 m tall because October 1st is National Day of the People's Republic of China. Tourists would sing out loud, walk around the statue three times, or bow to honor Mao.
