The movement also led to the reorganization of the Kuomintang.

Chen and Li founded the Weekly Review magazine in the building in 1918. It published news on the movement. Several editions of the magazine are on display at the exhibition.

According to Qin, the building witnessed the movement in its entirety.

"I believe there is no other venue that can bring the audience into the scene of the May Fourth Movement as realistically."

In 1961, the building was listed in the first batch of major national-level protected historical and cultural sites. It was turned into the New Culture Movement Memorial of Beijing and opened to the public in 2002. As a landmark of China's modern history, the building is also one of the most popular sites.

According to the memorial's administration office, the site has received more than 50,000 visitors so far this year-over four times the number of the same period last year.
