Introduction to Shaolin Temple The full name of Shaolin Temple is Songshan Shaolin Scenic Area in Dengfeng City.

Shaolin Temple is a prestigious Buddhist temple in China, the ancestral home of Zen Buddhism and the birthplace of Shaolin Kung Fu. Located at the foot of Wuru Peak in Songshan Mountain, which is about 0/2km west of Dengfeng City, it is one of the main core scenic spots in Songshan Scenic Area.

Shaolin Temple was built in the 19th year of Taihe in the Northern Wei Dynasty (AD 495). It was built by Emperor Xiaowen to settle the Indian monk Posto. Built in the dense forest of Songshan Mountain, it was named "Shaolin Temple". In the third year of Xiaochang in the Northern Wei Dynasty (AD 527), Dharma, an Indian monk, came to Shaolin and lived in a natural cave in Wurufeng, Shaoshi Mountain for nine years, where he first preached Zen. At this point, Shaolin is called "the ancestral home of Zen". In the early Tang Dynasty, thirteen stick monks such as Zhijian and Tanzong of Shaolin Temple made great contributions in the battle against the king and were praised by the rulers. During this period, due to the strong support of the court, Shaolin Temple developed rapidly and won the reputation of "the first temple in the world", and Shaolin Kung Fu became famous from then on. The Ming Dynasty reached its peak. During the Republic of China, Shi Yousan, a warlord, released most of the buildings in blazing temple, and the Millennium foundation was destroyed. After the founding of New China, with the care and support of the Party and the country, Shaolin Temple was revived. In particular, a film "Shaolin Temple" by 1982 made Shaolin Temple and Shaolin Kungfu popular all over the world and became the top tourism products in Henan and even the world.

Since the establishment of Shaolin Temple, Zen, martial arts and medicine have enjoyed a world-renowned and enduring reputation, and accumulated rich historical and cultural connotations. It was rated as "Top Ten Tourist Attractions in Zhengzhou City" and the first batch of "4A-level scenic spots" in China, with an annual reception of more than 6.5438+0.5 million tourists. It is a veritable tourist pearl in the Central Plains and a tourist attraction in China.
