Option 2: Private Guide + Round-Trip Transfers (Recommended)
Your guide will meet you in the lobby of your hotel. On the way, the guide will elaborate on the founding history of Shaolin Temple, the origin of Chan culture, and the global development of Shaolin Kung Fu. Upon arrival, you will take an in-depth guided tour of core attractions including the main temple complex and the Pagoda Forest.
This package features a special Kung Fu show performed by resident Shaolin monks. (Tip: Seats are limited on weekends; standing may be required during peak times). After the tour, you will be transferred back to your hotel in Zhengzhou or Luoyang.

Located just 7 km from the Shaolin Temple in the Daixiangou Scenic Area, the Zen Shaolin Music Grand Ceremony is a spectacular open-air performance. Set against a natural mountain valley backdrop, the show features nearly 600 performers presenting Zen culture and Kung Fu through five stunning chapters.
New stage effects and programmes are launched in 2026, accompanied by pre-show folk performances such as dragon dance and qigong. Sit on traditional cushions in the mountain valley to experience Zen culture and Kung Fu up close. A classic night tour attraction on Songshan Mountain.
Daily professional Kung Fu shows are scheduled at the scenic area. Please note that show times may vary slightly based on daily operations. We will send your e-tickets and viewing details in advance to ensure a smooth experience.
