Henan Dengfeng Shaolin One-Day Tour

Shaolin Temple covers an area of over 30,000 square meters, with its architectural layout extending along the central axis. It is divided into seven courtyards, showcasing a grand and majestic design. The interior decorations and sculptures are exquisitely detailed, fully reflecting the unique charm of ancient Chinese cultural art. Upon entering the mountain gate of Shaolin Temple, the first sight is the Hall of Heavenly Kings. Passing through this hall leads to the Mahavira Hall, the core structure of Shaolin Temple. In ancient times, it was also known as the "Hall of Three Buddhas" or "Glazed Hall," serving as an important venue for Buddhist ceremonies. In front of the hall, the Bell Tower and Drum Tower stand on either side, with the melodious bell and deep drum sounds complementing each other, adding a sense of solemnity and mystery to this ancient temple.

Explore the Mountain Gate, Hall of Heavenly Kings, Mahavira Hall, Sutra Library, Abbot's Room, Snow Pavilion, and Thousand Buddha Hall, experiencing the solemnity and mystery of this thousand-year-old monastery. Noon: Enjoy Shaolin vegetarian cuisine or other local specialties at the scenic area restaurant.
