Greetings everyone,
Through a series of serendipitous events I’ve found myself invited to China for the next few weeks visiting friends. The trip was quite spontaneous so I did not have a lot of forethought or planning but I did really want to make a pilgrimage to see the site of the original shaolin temple and also the wudang mountain. Now yes I do know what you are thinking and I’m clued up to all the fake stuff going on there but I still want to visit these historic sites where the past masters once walked even if I just go to enjoy the scenery and meditate there a bit.
I thought many of our members would know more than I do about these areas, any insider tips about visiting these sites? Also any other recommendations for China? So far my loose itinerary for the next 2 and a half weeks is :
Forbidden city
Great Wall
Shaolin temple
Wudang mountain
Terra-cotta army in xian
Wandering around Da Li and surrounding areas in Yunnan
Any insights would be appreciated
Many thanks and Happy Holiday season everyone !
