Mary Ma,
I would like to personally say that I thought that John and Kathy were first class in the way they
treated my wife and I on our recent side tour to Luoyang. They have a strong sense of punctuality. They understand what we wanted. We found they were extremely polite, curteuous and knowledgable. I think they are an asset to your company. Kathy handled our arrival at Luoyang Railway Station superably. The driver - John was very professional and drove very smoothly. I will do recommend your tour company to our friends and colleages.
Once again a big thank you.
Margaret and David

Pick up from your hotel or train station in Luoyang. Have one day excursion tour to the Shaolin Temple. Shaolin Temple is located in the Songshan Mountains, 100 km south-east of Luoyang and about 90 km southwest of Zhengzhou-Henan's provincial capital. Shaolin Temple is famous not only as one of China's most important Buddhist temples, but also as the center of Chinese kung-fu. First constructed in 495, the temple was mainly designed to accommodate Batuo, a famous Indian monk. After many years of preaching Buddhism, he was later respected as Fo Tuo, or Grand Monk. In 537, another respected Indian monk, Boddhidharma, came and stayed in the temple. As the as legend goes, he created a kind of primitive bare-hand fight routine described “xingyi boxing” after he had sat meditating in a cave for the duration of nine years. That began the tradition of kung-fu at the temple. At the early seventh century, a small team of 13 Shaolin monks were said to have saved Tang Dynasty emperor Li Shimin by beating a whole division of the ruling Sui Dynasty's army and assisting him run out of prison. When he took power, Li offered land and wealth to the temple. Shaolin then grew into a center of kung-fu masters from all over the country. At its prime time, it held as many as 3,000 solider-monks. Back to Luoyang. Lunch included.
