Dann ging es mit dem Auto weiter zum Shaolin Tempel. Der Tourguide konnte gut englisch und hat mir viel über chinesische Geschichte erzählt. Der Shaolin Tempel war wunderschön und das Wetter toll. Dann folgte noch eine super Kung Fu Show und dann ging es mit dem Zug zurück nach Beijing. Es war ein wundervoller Ausflug.”
