Oof. I legit stumbled across that lovely piece of history one day, cuz apparently some dudes grandfather on Reddit was somehow there at the time and had a camera and documented the whole thing (OP thought it was part of Tiananmen). And posted a bunch of the photos, and a historian basically messaged him saying this is one of the most complete documentations I’ve ever seen it likely belongs in a museum.
