Shaolin Temple History and Kung Fu Culture

With a long history, Shaolin Temple was built in 495 AD. Covering an area of 576,000m2, it was built as the shelter for Buddhabhadra – an eminent monk from India, by Xiaowen Emperor of Northern Wei Dynasty (386~534). 32 years later, another famous monk from India – Bodhidharma came to Shaolin Temple to preach Zen Buddhism. While teaching Zen Buddhism, Bodhidharma meditated in a cave near Shaolin Temple. He used to stretch legs with some movements he created, which is believed to be the origin of Kung Fu or Martial Arts. Successive improvements and numerous creations had been made by monks of generations until the entire system of Shaolin Kung Fu formed. The martial monks of Shaolin Temple also helped the army of Li Shimin, the emperor of Tang Dynasty (618~907) defeat the enemy troops. In Ming Dynasty (1368~1644), Shaolin Temple also sent martial monks to southeastern coastal area to fight against Japanese pirates. Today, Shaolin Temple is the dreamland of both Kung Fu fans and Buddhist pilgrims.
