Shenmue III and Real Life Locations.

[spud1897]

As we know Shenmue takes its inspiration from real life locations and Shenmue III is no different.

Check out this fighting arena in China, familiar to anyone?

Shenmue IV Cliff Temple Version 2.0

When the Dragon and the Phoenix meet; the Gates of Heaven and Earth will open and Chiyou will resurrect itself on Earth.

This could be a great location for that Prophecy to take place.

 

[Suzaku]

when you think some things were exaggerated like in movies, etc. here comes the real life counterparts...
Never seen that arena before.

There are many places that seems taken straight from a fairytale, China is amazing.

Ryo, Shenhua and Ren must access the Cliff Temple by a very dangerous and narrow secret passage way by the mountain side because the temple is being heavily guarded by the Chiyou Men.
Fail the QTE and it is certain death for them.

Man, these places look amazing. But I understand that Guilin is more tropical in real life.

Shenmue IV Horse Stance Training
Shaolin Style.

 

[24Nathan]

Wow...

 

[Sergeynest]

This would also make an amazing location for the Cliff Temple. "Must watch at 07:50"
The buildings at the bottom would also make a great site for the Shaolin Monastery.

The music beat would be great for Ryo training montage.
