A summer camp in a 600-year ancient ancestral hall opened its curtain this July, welcoming over 30 kids and adults to learn ancient Chinese calligraphy, classics, martial arts, among other skills.
"Our ancestors have left us such a wonderful place; we should relive its life and make good use of it. That's why we decided to host our camp here," said Zeng Dingxiang, director of Longgang Village in Guangzhou.
The Zeng ancestral hall was build in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) to honor the 59th generation of ancient Chinese philosopher Zeng Zi (AD505-435).
Covering a land of over 30,000 square meters, the hall has served as the place for the Zeng clansmen in Longgang Village to worship their ancestors and make major decisions for the big family.
