The Shado-Pan Monastery was the second announced 5-man dungeon of World of Warcraft: Mists of Pandaria. Located in Kun-Lai Summit, this mountain retreat serves as the home and training grounds of the mysterious Shado-Pan, a pandaren faction dedicated to protecting Pandaria. Again, the Sha have been set free and threaten the Shado-pan's base of operations, and you’re tasked with dispatching them.[1]
The monastery itself is located in the mountains of northwest Kun-Lai Summit, northwest of Mount Neverest and up the mountain path from Winter's Blossom. It can also be accessed via an unnamed path leading northwest from the Neverest Basecamp, skirting around the north of Mount Neverest.
Outside the monastery to the southeast, is The Emperor's Burden - Part 7, one of the objectives of the Pandaria exploration achievement 
[The Seven Burdens of Shaohao].
History
 |
This section is a lore stub. |
As the war between the Alliance and Horde moved to Pandaria, the Shado-Pan recruited new young members, including Ten and brought them here to teach their ways.[2]
During the Landfall, Chen Stormstout brought a wounded Vol'jin and Tyrathan Khort to the Monastery to recuperate. They spent some time here and trained. Later, it was invaded by the Zandalari trolls and their mogu allies led by Khal'ak.[3]
Members of the Alliance came here and asked about the Divine Bell.[4]
By the time of the Burning Legion's third invasion, Fei Li accidentally set the Monastery on fire which seemingly led her to fall from grace in Taran's eyes.[5]
Adventure Guide
War has spread across Pandaria, and the destructive conflict between the Horde and Alliance has led to turmoil in the majestic Shado-pan Monastery. There, three malevolent entities--the Sha of Violence, the Sha of Hatred, and the Sha of Anger--have erupted from their prisons. Although the Sha of Anger fled the secluded monastery completely, the remaining sha have begun wreaking havoc on the site's brave Shado-pan defenders.

Notes
- In Vol'jin: Shadows of the Horde, the Shado-Pan Monastery is implied to be located on or at least very near the Peak of Serenity,[6][7] and both the Peak of Serenity and the Shado-Pan Monastery are described as the location where the first monks planned their overthrow of the mogu.[6][7][8] The Chronicle of Ages describes the hidden monastery built by Kang's followers but implies that it became the Shado-Pan Monastery, rather than the Peak of Serenity.[9]
