Tai Chi has been recognised officially by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
Tai chi added to Unesco intangible cultural heritage list, 12 years after China first applied for recognition of the ancient martial art
China can finally relax after winning a decade-long battle for the globally popular, centuries-old Chinese martial art to be granted heritage status by Unesco
Its inclusion on the cultural heritage list ‘will help this sport to reach more places’
