An army of 200 people, in full grey-blue uniforms with red-starred hats, are marching on a slippery and rugged stone road up to a hill in drizzle. The 10 men in front are carrying the baskets with shoulder poles.
These people are experiencing "a day of life as the Red Army," which is a must-go event of the "red tourism" in Jinggangshan, East China's Jiangxi Province.
