- Shaolin Temple (Monastero Shaolin) - A private guide and driver will collect guests from their downtown Zhengzhou hotel and drive to Shaolin Temple, located in Dengfeng County, Henan province, approximately 1.5 hours away. Established in 495 during the Northern Wei Dynasty (368-534), it is renowned as ‘the Number One Temple under Heaven’. Visitors will explore Shanmen Hall, Hall of Heavenly Kings, and Thousand-Buddha Hall with their guide.
- Pagoda Forest at Shaolin Temple - Next, guests will visit the Pagoda Forest, the most fascinating section of the complex. This area features 228 stone or brick pagodas constructed from 791 AD during the Tang Dynasty through the Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing Dynasties.
- Mount Song - Accompanied by the tour guide, guests will take a cable car up to Mount Song, known as the central mountain of China’s Five Great Mountains, with a peak 1,500 meters above sea level. The mountain offers breathtaking views.
-
Sanhuang Village Scenic Resort - This is an optional part of the tour. Sanhuang Village is a highlight on Mount Song, but it requires more than an hour of walking and hiking from the cable car’s arrival point. If guests are up for it, they can continue to this top temple. Alternatively, they can walk to the suspension bridge to enjoy the scenery from a distance, then take the cable car back down.
Afterward, the tour guide will escort guests to a local restaurant for lunch. The tour concludes with a drop-off at the Zhengzhou hotel or an option to end in Dengfeng City.
