Martial Arts

Shaolin Monks

China is one of the main birth places of Eastern martial arts and its people are very proud of this heritage. Traditionally the names of martial arts were calledwushu, where as the modern termkungfu refers to any discipline that requires extreme concentration. One of the most famous traditions of Chinese martial arts is Shaolin which was founded by Buddhist monks in the Wudang Mountains some 1500 years ago. As with most martial arts, the initial purpose of the forms were for survival and warfare. Over time art forms have branched off, while others have retained a distinct Chinese flavor. Regardless, China has produced some of the most renowned martial artists in the world including Wong Fei Hung and many others.
