From October 27 to 31, ICDS organized a study tour to Shandong and Shanghai for participants of the 50th Defence and Strategy Course (English).

This study tour adopted a "panoramic display + interactive exchange" model, selecting Qufu, Qingdao, and Shanghai as teaching sites, and conducted over 10 on-site teaching activities. Participants felt that the study tour not only provided a deep understanding of the institutionalization and political construction of China's historical memory, but also clearly demonstrated how cities balance heritage preservation with rapid economic and architectural transformation, allowing everyone to directly experience China’s structural transformation and its enormous contribution to the global economy.
