Product details

Songshan Shaolin Scenic pure play 1-day tour

During the reign of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, Bodhidharma crossed the river on a reed and arrived at the Songshan Shaolin Scenic. After nine years of wall-facing meditation, he first transmitted Zen meditation, forming the most distinctive Buddhist sect in China. Since the Wei, Jin, and Southern and Northern Dynasties, the pursuit of Zen enlightenment and meditation has not only been embraced by many renowned literati as a lofty ideal, but the Zen philosophy of "ordinary mind is the way" has also captivated the hearts of the common people.

 

Songshan Shaolin Scenic is located at the foot of Wuru Peak on Mount Song in Dengfeng City, Henan Province. It is named "Shaolin" because it is situated in the dense forests of the Shaoshi Mountain area within the Songshan range. Built in the 19th year of the Taihe era during the Northern Wei Dynasty (495 AD), it was established by Emperor Xiaowen to accommodate the revered Indian monk Batuo. The temple was constructed on the northern slopes of Shaoshi Mountain, facing the capital city of Luoyang.

 

Kung Fu show

This place gathers top masters who have performed exquisite martial arts shows for millions of Chinese and foreign visitors. It is the best venue to witness authentic Shaolin Kung Fu.

Songshan Shaolin Scenic Temple

The Songshan Shaolin Scenic is where the abbot and monastic officials conduct activities such as meditation, scripture chanting, receptions, book collections, and large-scale events.

Tallinn

At the foot of a small hill 300 meters west of the Songshan Shaolin Scenic, there are over 200 brick and stone pagodas from the Tang, Song, Jin, Yuan, Ming, Qing dynasties and modern times. This is the burial ground for eminent monks of the Songshan Shaolin Scenic throughout history.
