The crew is spending a week at Wudang Mountains, and they have already interviewed Master Zhong Yunlong, a 14th generation disciple of the Wudang Sanfeng Sect, with the aim of covering the development and current situation of Wudang kung fu.

The program will be aired on CCTV-4 in January 2014, and viewers in China, the U.S. and Europe will have the opportunity to learn more about Wudang kung fu.

The program will also offer the local authorities a good chance to exhibit the area’s tourist resources and increase the visibility and influence of Wudang Mountains.
