Chongqing Relocates Derelict Mao Zedong Statue

A Mao Zedong statue left among ruins/rubble.
2014 February 25, Chongqing city Shapingba district Huayanputian Logistics Company, a Mao Zedong statue was hoisted by three 80 ton cranes onto a flatbed trailer truck to be sent to the Chongqing Municipal Industry Museum. This statue of Mao Zedong was erected in 1968 during China’s Cultural Revolution period, the entire body molded in concrete. This is also Chongqing’s first time moving a Mao Zedong statue from its original location to another.
