The Chinese martial art of Shaolin Kung Fu was performed on stage at the Albanian National Theatre in Tirana, the capital of Albania, on July 4, 2016.
It is one of China's national heritages and the show was praised by the locals, especially young Kung Fu fans.
Shaolin Kung Fu is a complex martial art, taught mainly orally and handed down through generations. Throughout history, the art of Shaolin Kung Fu would be inherited based on a Shaolin temple patriarchal clan system.
Its reputation was set early during the Sui and Tang dynasties (581-907). During the Song Dynasty (960-1279), Shaolin became a unique school of Kung Fu and established itself as a school of excellence.
