Are You Ready for Quite a Different Travelling? Kung Fu Tourism in Hong Kong

<p>In Hong Kong, kung fu seems to be present almost everywhere &mdash; a Wing Chun school there, a kung fu TV advertisement here, a statue over there, old masters chatting in the park while showing each other how to break arms the most effectively while their elderly friend holds their cigarette&hellip;</p> <p>After 8 years of living in Hong Kong, I still felt shivering when I discovered another underground treasure of the city. I would show it then to friends who came for a short visit, also martial arts lovers. I call this &ldquo;kung fu tourism&rdquo;, where tourists are also practitioners, or at least kung fu movie fans, and want to see places and artifacts connected with martial arts. Even better, have some training. Shaolin temple, Wudang mountains, or Foshan are also typical goals of kung fu tourists.</p> <p><a href="https://kungfuacademic.medium.com/are-you-ready-for-quite-a-different-travelling-kung-fu-tourism-in-hong-kong-c3b218f4d81a"><strong>Website</strong></a></p>
