The village of Cuiheng in Guangdong province is described as the birthplace of China's democratic revolution. The village, in the city of Zhongshan, was home to Sun Yat-sen, who led the 1911 Revolution against the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) and ended thousands of years of imperial rule in China. For decades, Sun's self-designed residence, a two-storey building with arches on the ground and top floors, has attracted countless visitors from around the world as part of the Sun Yat-sen Memorial Museum.
