Learn kung fu from the masters of Shaolin and Wu Dang-style martial arts against a backdrop of the world's tallest seated outdoor bronze Buddha.

From July 1 to September 2, some 19 kung fu experts will jump, fly, kick and shadow-fist their way around the square at Ngong Ping Village, a complex of shops and restaurants adjacent to Lantau's Tian Tan Buddha Statue.

Demonstrations of killer moves that you'll otherwise only see in movies will take place throughout the afternoon. Watch out for the Shield and Knife, the Celestial Fuchen-brush Sword and the Eighteen Weapons Routine.

There will also be free 15-minute kung fu workshops at the square for acquiring the basics of Chinese martial arts. The Shaolin Five-Form Fist and the Wu Dang Foundation Fist Form will be taught to budding fighters who have registered in advance.
