Luoyang and Zhengzhou. This is the home of the famous Shaoling Monks known for the ancient art of KungFu. It has become a bit touristy in the later years since it is so popular and well known, but still it is the Mecca of KungFu. Besides seeing the Monks at prayer chanting you will be able to visit the several temples there and the building where they have a demonstration of their Kungfu abilities. Here you see one of the leading monks with a bowl being held by the Monk's stomach muscle. He challenges anyone present to try and remove it from him. As I was the only foreigner that day, everyone wanted me to try and do it. I observed that he was perspiring a bit so knew that his skin would be moist and that perhaps rather than try to pull it off, I could twist it until his skin actually released it. That indeed is what happened to the astonishment of the people and the other monks as it had never been done before. I still have the bowl as he presented it to me in humility and bowing.
