If you want to study kung fu right where the martial art was born, go to Songshan National Park in Henan Province. Songshan has the world-famous Shaolin Temple. Visit this link to read more about Henan:

There are over 40 kung fu schools in Songshan, but perhaps the most foreigner-friendly is the Shaolin Monastery Wushu Institute in Tagou, which has English-speaking instructors and has an office that helps foreigners arrange their travel, hotel accommodations and training. The institute has its own dorm, Dharma Hall, where you will stay with Chinese students. You can also tailor-fit your training schedule, from one day, to three months or for years, depending on your budget.

If you want to learn Bruce Lee's wu shu style, you can take your studies in Foshan, Bruce Lee's ancestral hometown. Visit this link for more info about Foshan:
