Chenjiagou Village – The hometown of TaijiQuan( Taichi Boxing)
The village is situated in the middle part of the Qingfeng Mountain, 5km from East Wenxian County of Jiaozuo. Originally, it was called Changyang village, but later changed its name because a Zezhou native (in Shanxi Province) called Chen Bu moved and lived here generation after generation, so almost all the people in the village are his descendents. That is why the village is renamed after his surname. Also, it is named as “gou”, meaning ditch, because there is a deep ditch extending from the south to the north in the village.
