(These photos are out of order thanks to an internet outage.)

Most buildings in this batch of photos were rebuild in the 80’s.  The temple has been burned down enough times that I’m tempted to question the efficacy of Shaolin fighting techniques.

Downhill from the monastary is a non-Shaolin kung fu school built here in hopes that some of the magic will rub off.
