Following a morning pickup from your accommodation in Zhengzhou city center at 8:30am, meet your private guide and hop aboard your air-conditioned vehicle. The Shaolin Temple is shrouded in legend and mystery. The origins of martial arts and kung fu are part of the mystery of the Shaolin Temple and its monks. This is probably the most famous temple in China, not only because of its long history, but also because of its role in Chinese Buddhism and martial arts (also known as wushu).
Next, you will take part in the most exciting part – learning kung fu with a master. During the course you will learn a lot of kung fu moves, don’t worry about the language barrier, always be ready with any questions and ask your guide! For lunch, you can choose to eat inside the Shaolin Temple with the monks (a simple vegetarian lunch) or at a regular restaurant. After that, you’ll explore the Pagoda Forest, which is a concentration of the tomb towers of eminent monks and abbots of monasteries. With more than 240 tomb pagodas of different sizes from the Tang, Song, Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties (618-1911), it is the largest pagoda forest in China. After your Shaolin Temple tour finished, your guide will bring you back to your hotel in Zhengzhou.
