Two cultural facilities – located in Wenzhou city in East China's Zhejiang province – were listed as provincial-level patriotism education bases on the occasion of the 72th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. 

The facilities are the Wenzhou Moral Museum and the National Yingshi University Museum.

Located in Yangfushan Park, the Wenzhou Moral Museum was opened to the public on Sept 19, 2018. With a floor space covering 1,694 square meters, the museum is composed of a main exhibition hall, a lecture hall, a hall themed on moral cultivation – as well as a hall for temporary exhibitions, displaying over hundreds of exhibits. (do you mean the hall for temporary exhibitions has hundreds of exhibits – or the entire museum. If the first, leave as is.) Visitors can gain a better understanding of the origin and inheritance of morality in Wenzhou, as well as some representative moral stories through the exhibits. The museum reportedly serves as a significant cultural landmark in Wenzhou.

The Yingshi University was founded during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression (1931-45) and was moved to Taishun county, administered by Wenzhou in 1943. It nurtured a large number of talented personnel during its short 10-year history and reportedly made a significant contribution to China's contemporary education. After victory in the war, it was dissociated and incorporated into Zhejiang University and Fudan University.

Located at the former site of the university, the National Yingshi University Museum was built in 2015 to protect its history and pass on and promote the spirit of the university. Since its establishment, the museum has been a base for patriotism education and traditional cultural education.
