In 1921, the delegates representing about 50 CPC members nationwide convened the first CPC National Congress in late July in Shanghai, but moved to a boat on Nanhu Lake in Jiaxing of east China's Zhejiang Province due to the harassment of local police.
The meeting site on Xingye Road has been open to public as a museum since 1952.
Xi visited the place three times when he worked in Shanghai.
After visiting a meeting room of the first CPC National Congress, Xi asked for efforts to protect and make good use of the site.
Once called by late Chinese leader Mao Zedong the "maternity ward of the CPC," the site is also the "spiritual home" of Chinese communists, Xi said.
They also visited exhibitions displaying the founding and development of the CPC.
"We can not forget the road that we have taken no matter how far we march," Xi said.
"We should often recall and deeply comprehend the cultural relics and scenes on the founding of the CPC so as to decode the CPC's original aspiration," he said.
Xi also led Li Keqiang, Li Zhanshu, Wang Yang, Wang Huning, Zhao Leji and Han Zheng to review the oath of the CPC in front of a huge CPC flag, then asked all CPC members to keep firmly in mind the oath and keep in alignment.
On Tuesday afternoon, the CPC leadership visited Jiaxing, following the footsteps of their forerunners.
The leaders visited a replica of the boat on which CPC founders convened their meeting in 1921 -- now referred to as the "Red Boat" -- and the Nanhu Lake Revolution Museum after a train trip from Shanghai.
