Red tourism (Chinese: 红色旅游, Russian: красный туризм, romanized: krasniy turizm) is tourism at locations significant to communism. It is a subset of domestic and international tourism in current or former communist countries such as China and Russia, in which people visit locations with historical significance to their "red" (communist) past.

In the People's Republic of China, tourists visit locations with historical significance to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) "to rekindle their long-lost sense of class struggle and proletarian principles."
