A martial arts history note

Just a reminder to those interested in such things, the modern "Shaolin Temple" in China was rebuilt, and is owned and operated by the Communist Chinese government. The buildings were in ruins just a couple of decades ago.

It is a good way for the Communist Chinese government to gather in hard western currency by the barrel full from tourists.
