Taiji Songquan· Promote the Dao and cultivate righteousness

A time-honored brand in Beijing founded in 1988

On July 16, 2019, the second day of the root-tracing journey, under the guidance of Master Yang Songquan, all members of the Songquan team visited the Chen Gong Zhaopi Mausoleum to pay homage to the great master Chen Gong Zhaopi. Then they went to the Tai Chi Ancestral Hall to pay respects to the ancestors of all generations and visited the Tai Chi Museum and other places, experiencing the long history of Tai Chi culture.

During the visit, we collectively practiced the old Chen-style Tai Chi in front of various scenic spots and historical sites in the Chenjiagou Sacred Place. Through this ancient and traditional set of martial arts, feel the spiritual energy of the birthplace of Tai Chi and appreciate the magical charm of this sacred place!

In memory of Grandmaster Chen Gong Zhaopi

At the mausoleum of Master Chen Zhaopi, all the disciples listened quietly to the glorious life journey of Master Chen Zhaopi and reviewed his outstanding contributions to the worldwide fame of Tai Chi. Afterwards, the master led his disciples to offer incense and bow to the grandmaster Chen Zhaopi one by one, jointly paying tribute to this Tai Chi master who carried on the legacy of the past and the future.

Thoughts on watching the master lead his Chinese and foreign disciples to pay homage to the mausoleum of Master Zhaopi

Thirty years in the capital, my hair has not aged.

I returned to my hometown several times in my dreams.

Carrying the elegance of the master ancestor,

Who is the current ancestor behind the master ancestor?

The shade of pine trees protects the ancestors of worship.

Stand upright under the forest by the spring.

High mountains have paths and a calm heart.

There is no different way to return to the five continents.
