Every journey begins with a departure, but arriving in Hongtong feels like returning home. Here, you can witness a moving migration performance, deeply experiencing the reluctance of people leaving their homes and the pain of separation from family.

Highly recommended! The scenic area is clean and hygienic with a great environment. We hired a guide who was attentive, responsible, and provided detailed explanations. We learned about the history of immigration and even found our own surname. It was a perfect trip to trace our roots.

Although our ancestors are far away, we must be sincere in offering sacrifices to them; although our descendants are foolish, we must read the scriptures.
After listening to the stories of &quot;Big Sophora Tree&quot; and &quot;Old Stork&#39;s Nest&quot; for decades, I finally came here to trace my roots and pay tribute to my ancestors.
The performance of the &quot;old family&quot; in the cold wind is very moving. Perhaps we will never be able to fully answer the three philosophical questions that hit our souls, such as &quot;Where do I come from?&quot;, in our entire lives. On the road of exploration, the inheritance of sparks and the relay from generation to generation may be the best answer for this nation at present.

Hongdong Big Sophora Tree Root-Seeking and Ancestor-Worshiping Park is the only folk worshipping holy place in the country with the theme of &quot;seeking roots&quot; and &quot;worshipping ancestors&quot;. The scenic area is divided into four major theme areas: &quot;Immigration Historic Area&quot;, &quot;Ancestor-Worshiping Activity Area&quot;, &quot;Folk Customs Tour Area&quot; and &quot;Fenhe Ecological Area&quot;. In addition, there will be live performances at different time periods.
The Big Sophora Tree Root-Seeking and Ancestor-Worshiping Park is located next to Guangji Temple, about 2 kilometers northwest of Hongdong County, Shanxi Province. It is a nationally famous Ming Dynasty migration site and a holy place for hundreds of millions of descendants of the Big Sophora Tree at home and abroad to seek roots and worship their ancestors. &quot;Ask me where my ancestors are, the Big Sophora Tree in Hongdong, Shanxi.&quot;
