Brand Story
Located on Fuchengmen Inner Street in Beijing's Xicheng District, Baitasi Pharmacy takes its name from the nearby White Dagoba of Miaoying Temple, a Yuan Dynasty landmark. The area was a bustling hub for herbal medicine trade during the Ming and Qing dynasties. The pharmacy's predecessor is said to be 'Ji'an Tang', established in the late Qing or early Republic period. After public-private partnership in 1953, it was officially renamed Baitasi Pharmacy. Though its exact founding year is unverified, the pharmacy has always upheld the ancestral precept of 'Genuine goods, fair dealing' (Huo Zhen Jia Shi, Tong Sou Wu Qi). Renowned for authentic herbs, pills, powders, and precious ginseng and antler products, it supplied medicines to famous Beijing physicians like Shi Jinmo and Pu Fuzhou in the 1950s, even offering decoction preparation and home delivery. Baitasi Pharmacy is not just a place to buy medicine but a cultural landmark of Beijing's TCM heritage, witnessing the blend of tradition and modernity.
