Mausoleum of Mao Zedong

The Mao Zedong Mausoleum in Beijing houses the remains of Mao Zedong, the Communist Party of China's major political figure during the mid-1900s.

Mao's embalmed body, like Lenin's in Russia, is displayed within a crystal casket in the tomb in Tiananmen Square. The location is open to the public most days of the week and is free to enter, though visitors must dress modestly and cannot bring cameras.
