Kung Fu Martial Arts Show


Unfortunately photographs were prohibited during the Kung Fu Martial Arts show at the Red Theater because it was my favorite of all the formal entertainment we watched. The beautiful story of the the boy becoming a monk was told through the best dancing I saw in China and the martial arts was spectacular.

The Legend of Kung Fu, is the story of a young boy trying to fulfill his dream of becoming a Kung Fu master. This boy is called Chun Yi (pure one) and was sent to a Buddhist temple to be a monk at a young age. Initially, the young monk had a hard time getting used to the strict discipline of the temple until he became interested in the unbelievable power of Kung Fu. From then on he worked hard on Kung Fu and made great achievements on the way to growing up. However, the young Chun Yi could not restrain his natural desire to chase a young beauty, so he suffered great regret and losing his way to self-cultivation. Chun Yi punished himself severely and finally returned to the way of seeking enlightenment. At the end of the show, Chun Yi is praised for being a great Buddhist master of Chinese Kung Fu.
