武术大师森本松携手陈罗塔纳与隆索万·杜恩，于8月15日重访暹

**Grandmaster Spreads Khmer Martial Arts Inspiration SIEM REAP – Engaging in centuries of Khmer history, grandmaster Seng Bunsong once again visits the temples of Bayon and Ta Prohm in a mission to study, spread and preserve knowledge of ancient martial arts sculptures. Accompanied by top Cambodian fighters Chan Rothana and Long Sovan Doeun, Bunsong on Aug. 15 recreated the scenes from the sacred walls from decades of martial art experience both domestic and abroad. Sculpted on the temples from the 12th to 13th century, the sandstone bas-reliefs immortalise the rich historical and cultural heritage of Cambodia where scenery of people’s daily routines are portrayed in meticulous details. From the tight corners of an entrance’s stone columns to the hundreds of meters long stone gallery, Bunsong and his younger generation of fighters unite to preserve their ancestral legacy one move at a time. The grandmaster also explains the idea behind the ancient depiction of a man drinking herbal medicine from a clay pot to strengthen the body to a wrestling duel between two males as well as the use of traditional tools for training. Having taught martial arts in the US for many years and now in his 70s, Bunsong continues to stand firm in his mission to inspire young Cambodian fighters to preserve and develop their ancestral martial art techniques.
