If you want to see the real Shaolin Temple, this is the place for you! 🇨🇳

A complete guide to Shaolin Temple, the holy land of Kung Fu 🥋
The head temple of the Zen sect in Dengfeng, Henan Province, China, is the birthplace of Shaolin Kung Fu, boasting a history of over 1,500 years.

📍How to get there
We recommend staying in Zhengzhou.
There is a direct bus from Zhengzhou (about 2 hours), and we recommend purchasing your ticket at the bus stop the day before.
On the day, take the bus early in the morning.

🎯Points to remember
The martial arts performance is a must-see (held several times a day. Free of charge)
The Towers (the group of tombs of the successive head priests) are a great photo spot
You can also visit the nearby Songshan Shaolin Scenic Area (in this case, be sure to take the morning bus)


It is a treasure trove of Chinese culture that can be enjoyed even by those who are not Kung Fu fans. It is recommended not only for Chinese history buffs and men, but also for those who want to be healed by Chinese nature, as it is surrounded by nature!
