My visit to Tiananmen Square illustrated the complex relationship between personal freedom and state power in China, showcasing layers of security and restrictions even for journalists.
The vast Tiananmen Square is a historical symbol of power, its meanings evolving from a site of protests in the 20th century to one controlled by the Chinese state.
Tiananmen Square is not just a public space; it embodies over a century of protest culture and governmental control, highlighting the tension between citizens and authority.
From Mao Zedong's proclamation in 1949 to the present, the square reflects the stark evolution of China's political landscape, particularly the Communist Party's grip on public expression.
