Official Yufotemple study/cultural pages and several urban temples were examined; no qualifying overnight participation established. Nearby Zhejiang/Jiangsu offerings are not assigned to Shanghai.
7 / 1
Maling offers a current 30-day-minimum residential package. Temple camps and a recent completed Maoshan liturgy course broaden discovery, with residential and eligibility limitations explicit. A final targeted pass added Changlu Chongfu Temple. Their individual status separates current offers from past events.
13 / 1
Six records combine direct historical Lingyin/Tongbai evidence, repeated youth camps and weaker recent Fuyuan leads. Some temple-branded hotels were rejected for lack of practice. A final targeted pass added Yuntai Chan Temple, Jiashan, Futuo Temple residential practice, Zijiao Chan Temple, Ningbo, Ci’en Temple, Tiantai. Their individual status separates current offers from past events.
3 / 1
Gushan has a dated residential youth camp; Erzu appears only in commercial course claims and remains lead-only.
5 / 0
Ziguo offers clear primary historical residential practice with changed later lodging terms. Wanfu and Fozu add documented historical programmes. A final targeted pass added Yunmen Temple, Changle, Huayan Temple, Zhiti Mountain. Their individual status separates current offers from past events.
6 / 0

7 / 5
Four schools publish residential martial-arts offers; Zhengjue provides historical temple practice. Official school pages were checked against booking or participant sources where found.
9 / 7
Four distinct published residential offers retained. Shaolin trade names and near-duplicate websites require careful identity resolution; no affiliation claims independently certified.
12 / 8
Wudang has the clearest cluster of school-operated residential training pages, with differentiated masters, campuses, room arrangements and practices. Buddhist leads add Sizu and Xianguang. The eight strong records remain programme publications, not confirmed vacancies. A final targeted pass added Shaolin Wudang Martial Arts School — Jingwu. Their individual status separates current offers from past events.
3 / 0
Jiuxi and Feishan have concrete historical camp notices linking practice with food and lodging. Reporting from Huangzhong Palace describes communal residence, dawn movement practice and work, including overseas participants, without a current published enrolment route.
7 / 2
Donghua's own lodging-and-service guide and Sihui Liuzu Temple's arrival process establish meaningful residential participation. Daling Guanyin, Baofeng, Fenghua, Luhu and Nanhua have dated camp evidence, with uneven current primary access.
2 / 2
Long Tou Shan and Yangshuo Traditional Tai Chi School publish room, meal and training details. Both explicitly describe English instruction. Their countryside settings support repeated practice; admission, dates and the chosen course should still be confirmed with the school.
1 / 0
Sanya Nanshan Temple has an older official volunteer invitation. The page does not explicitly establish accommodation or a daily practice curriculum, so it cannot yet support a residential recommendation.
2 / 0
Wuling has multi-day programme notices with temple lodging. A dedicated 2016–17 Shuanggui Tang winter invitation explicitly establishes lay lodging and meals; a 2024 roundup provides a later activity trace but does not establish its accommodation terms.
6 / 2
Longquan Xinglin and Emei publish substantive residential training. Longquan additionally has recent independent platform accounts. Puzhao's primary site preserves residential Chan notices from 2012 and 2015; Wenshu has dated camp reporting. Qingcheng's operator-led stay lacks a named residential host. Duoyin Guan's June 2026 primary invitation explicitly combines room and board with service, daily liturgy and optional practice instruction.
1 / 0
Jiulong Temple in Huishui has a detailed historical camp invitation including screening and food/lodging. Other returned pages mostly describe sightseeing, temple atmosphere or unrelated provinces.
4 / 1
Taiji Zhe publishes an October–November 2026 Dali course with named hotel, meals and daily training. Wuwei Temple has traveller evidence including 2024 and 2026 updates, but no verified primary admissions source. Fale's residential evidence is from 2013. Rising Dragon's current homepage says its headquarters moved to Bohol.
0 / 0
English searches commonly returned Tibetan Buddhist centres outside China or historical descriptions of Tibetan hermitages. Commercial Samye/Chimpu itineraries describe touring and accommodation but did not establish a sustained residential programme with a named teacher and admission process.
2 / 0
Qian County Nanhua Temple has a 2021 residential Vipassana notice and is distinct from Guangdong's namesake. Gu Guanyin Temple has an older lay practice day with possible prior-night lodging, while a 2024 programme mentioned in a roundup was for bhikkhus.
0 / 0
Searches returned Kongtong lodging, generic Gannan/Lanzhou temple guides and clergy recruitment. None combined a current identifiable host, meaningful lay practice programme and credible accommodation/admissions evidence. A 2024 official Kongtong report does document Daoist instruction and overnight tent camping for visiting executive-study groups, but no ongoing public residential host or enrolment route.
1 / 0
Beihai Chan Monastery has 2016 and 2017 camp invitations with room and board for university-age participants. These are substantive historical records, but the age and student criteria prevent treating the venue as a general open retreat.
0 / 0
Results included male-clergy recruitment, generic temple material and desert accommodation marketed as a retreat. No source combined participant lodging with a substantive current contemplative or martial programme.
0 / 0
Searches predominantly returned historic Buddhist sites, cave archaeology and unrelated volunteer programmes. Historic meditation cells and religious importance do not establish a currently operating retreat open to participants.
6 / 3
Current host-published temple stays and residential retreats were found, alongside historical university and visiting-teacher events. Temporary event venues are distinguished from permanent retreat centres.
1 / 0
No confirmed residential practice programme in the sources checked. Pou Tai Sin Un remains a lead; the official Vipassana schedule is for one-day returning-student sittings. The peninsula, Taipa and Coloane were searched.
27 / 15
