It's not easy to find a car. People usually take a high speed train from Zhengzhou Station to Xiuwu, then take a taxi to the park, which cost CNY 60-100 and it's much cheaper if sharing a car with other tourists. From Zhengzhou East to Xiuwu, only two trains departing at 07:03 and 15:12.

You can take bus to Shaolin Temple.
Take bus or taxi to Zhengzhou Bus Terminal, where you can find bus to Shaolin Temple, the bus ride takes about 2 hours, please make sure you will have enough time.
If you arrive in the afternoon, then we suggest you stay one night in Zhengzhou and then take the morning bus to Shaolin Temple, the bus will take you to the main entrance of the site.
Or, you can take bus to Dengfeng County directly in the afternoon and stay overnight there. Then take a taxi to Shaolin Temple in the next morning, the taxi will not charge you as the taximeter, the drivers always ask about CNY40- 50 per ride. Generally, the taxi will take all passengers to Sanhuangzhai, which is the back door of Shaolin Temple. In this way, you can see the panorama of Shaolin Temple, but it's exhausting. If you want to go to the main entrance directly, you need to talk with the driver in advance.

I think there is one at the 3F, in the waiting hall. The problem is that you need a ticket of that day to enter the waiting hall.
