Distro - Shaolin Kung Fu School 

A. Abbas 

The Shaolin monastery in the Henan province of China is probably the largest school of Kung Fu in the country, if not in the world. It has also become a major attraction with hordes of tourists, most of them Chinese, disgorged by buses. The monastery runs many shows each day inside a theatre which is full for every performance. They look more like a circus show than genuine Kung Fu exercises by monks.
