A must-see attraction in Luoyang, the classic landmark attraction is the Big Buddha area built in Wuzetian. However, the grottoes basically have traces of destruction, and they are not as well protected as the grottoes in Shanxi. It is also worth watching.
The explanation was very, very good, and I was lucky to meet Mr. Li Yaqi! The explanation is very professional and detailed, and it is also funny and easy to understand. I chose a big holiday trip and inevitably encountered a surging tide of people, but Mr. Li Yaqi has been very serious and responsible. He contacted us in advance and took the book to write down everyone. After a while, he will name everyone and confirm that everyone has not left the team. He will also take us to find a better way to stand in. And there are always explanations when queuing, which greatly eases the pain of our queuing people. At the same time, I prepared a lot of clear information pictures, and saw a lot of details that may not be seen from the scene angle, and I learned more deeply! And I am very touched by the seriousness and love of work by Mr. Yaqi. She also talked about it in the morning. The weather was very hot that day. There were many people queuing up and greatly increased the physical exertion of the tour. In such a high intensity and extremely hard work, she did not show it at all. Always stay focused and enthusiastic about the explanation, and when we communicated I talked about her not very understanding, she was very active in the back to find me want to buy books to learn to improve myself. Her explanation must not be a copy of the explanation words, she really has her own love and enthusiasm for culture and civilization, I am really impressed. In short, I am really happy to meet such a good explanation teacher. Everyone look for our teacher Li Yaqi. She really talks about a very good person and a very good person! Also praise the customer service of Trip.com , because the itinerary has to be changed, and it is also actively helping me change it. If I don't change this, my journey will really get a lot of damage, so I am really very grateful! !

Going to the world's surprise banquet, a glimpse of Lao Jun Shengshiyan "going to the world's surprise banquet, a glimpse of the world's prosperity." This hot poem on the Internet made me full of infinite scorn for Laojun Mountain. Finally, I set foot on the journey to Laojun Mountain and felt its charm firsthand. Just arrived at the foot of Laojun Mountain, I was shocked by the scene. The rolling mountains loomed in the clouds, like a slowly unfolding ink painting. The peaks stood tall and magnificent, making people sigh the magic of nature. Take the Zhongling Cableway up the mountain, and the scenery along the way is beautiful. As the cableway slowly rises, the view becomes more and more open, the mountains, forests, and canyons have a panoramic view, and the breeze is blowing, bringing a little coolness, making people feel particularly comfortable. After getting off the cableway, I chose to walk to the Golden Summit. Along the way, the peak and forest cableway is staggered overhead, and the mountains are cloudy and misty, as if they are in a fairyland. Finally, I came to the Shili painting screen, and the scenery here is a must. Crossing the cloud plank road up the cliffs, one side is a steep peak, one side is a deep valley, walking on the plank road, both thrilling and exciting. The surrounding peaks have different shapes, some like swords directly inserted into the clouds, some like fairy pavilions, some like camels carrying weight, people have to admire the magical sculptor of nature. The mountains in the distance are looming under the cloud, like a natural landscape painting. And when the clouds dispersed the moment, the sun spilled on the peak, the golden glow and the green vegetation against each other, the beauty to suffocating. At this time, I finally understand why people say "a mountain has four seasons, ten miles different days", Laojun Mountain's climate is changeable, clouds and mist are a frequent visitor here, they add a mysterious and charming color to Laojun Mountain. After a climb, I finally reached the Golden Summit Taoist Group. The buildings here are magnificent and glowing under the sun. The buildings such as the Golden Palace, Liangbaotai and the Jade Emperor's Ding are scattered on the top of the mountain, and the momentum is magnificent. Standing on the golden roof, overlooking the surroundings, the continuous mountains, the dense forests, the lingering clouds and mists have a panoramic view, and the grand feeling of "will be a top, a glimpse of the mountains and small" comes into being. Here, I feel the greatness of nature and the smallness of mankind, and the troubles in my heart have dissipated. In addition to the natural scenery, the cultural heritage of Laojun Mountain has also attracted me deeply. As a holy place of Taoism, Laojun Mountain carries a long history and deep cultural connotation. According to legend, the ancestor of Taoism Laozi has returned to hermitage here, leaving many legends and stories. Entering the Taoist view, cigarettes, and voices, people's hearts have been baptized. Here, I not only admired the beautiful scenery, but also experienced the vastness and depth of Taoist culture.
This year, Luoyang came to Laojun Mountain again. Last year, because the top of the mountain was snowing, it caused nothing to see the fog. The weather was very good this time, and the scenery was excellent. It was worth a visit.

Qingming Riverside Park is definitely a must-see attraction in Kaifeng (half-price discount for college entrance examination students, 60 yuan for three days), affordable and rich in content. Focusing on traditional folk customs and local conditions, traditional art and culture are vividly reminded here, and there are also unexpected little surprises (such as NPC interaction, etc.), especially the iron flower at night (sparks sprinkled all over the river). Other attractions are worth visiting, one day is definitely not enough, it is recommended to stay more time
The facilities and rich activities in midsummer directly make this journey full! As soon as you enter the park, you can feel the sincerity. The sunshade corridors and rest pavilions everywhere provide tourists with a piece of cool heaven and earth. There are drinking water points and air-conditioned rest areas at intervals, which instantly dissipate the hot summer heat.
The recreational facilities and activities in the park are even more wonderful. Whether it is the thrilling Song Dynasty war drum track or the 15-meter-high giant pirate ship, it makes people's adrenaline soar; the carousel full of childlike fun and the phoenix dance nine days make the children cheer. The most surprising thing is that you can always encounter enthusiastic NPCs along the way. Interactive games such as pitching pots, hoops, guessing riddles, etc. are continuous. You can also follow the Song Dynasty officials to investigate cases to win "Song Jiaozi", and the immersive experience is directly full!
Nearly a hundred performances are performed in turn throughout the day, and each one is a visual feast. Yue Fei's spear-to-sword battle with the young King Liang, and the continuous gunfire of the Song Dynasty's defense of Tokyo, make people feel as if they have traveled back to the battlefield of the Song Dynasty; after nightfall, the Millennium Disco, the National Style Parade, and the Fairy Scattering Flowers at the Hongqiao Music Square show the romance of the people of the Song Dynasty to the fullest. If you are tired of playing, you can also go to the "Dongpo Youli" cultural and creative collection store to stroll around. There are not only a wide range of special cultural and creative products here, but also air conditioning to give enough coolness. Paired with the Baiji peanuts with Sprite that you can get for 6 yuan, it is refreshing and refreshing, and instantly restores vitality!
From day to night, Qingming Shanghe Park perfectly dispels the summer heat with rich activities and thoughtful facilities, allowing people to immerse themselves in the prosperous scenery of the Song Dynasty. It is definitely a treasure choice for summer travel!

Landing in Qingchuan Pavilion, the river wind is glazed, the Yellow Crane Tower is across the river, the Yangtze River Bridge is like a rainbow lying wave, and the scenery of the three towns is panoramic. The name of the Pavilion is derived from Cui Wei's phrase "Qingchuan Lili Hanyang Tree". The millennium poetry is here to condensate into a real scene, and the literary vein is amazing. In the scenic area, Zhu Ying, the Minhang Palace, is solemn and praises the spirit of Daqi's water control; the iron gate is closed and the smoke of the three countries seems to have not dissipated. At the historical cascading place, the tenacity of Jingchu's ancestors and the floods struggled. If you travel at night, the lights are bright and moths, the screen reflects the waves, and the puppet drama "Daxu Qingchuan Love" activates the legend with non-legacy skills, and the blend of ancient and modern times adds dreams. I like the quiet and less noise here. When I climb the pavilion, I watch the river rushing and boating, and I am worried about the dust. The policy of free opening is more friendly, and there is a quiet and elegant depth compared to the Yellow Crane Tower. Before leaving the garden, there was a small squat in the Chaozong Pavilion, the evening breeze through the corridor, and the copper bells rang lightly.
Qingchuan Pavilion is really a treasure attraction in Wuhan! It is across the river from the Yellow Crane Tower, one of the three major attractions in Wuhan, and is known as the "First Building of Chutian". The scenic spot is composed of Qingchuan Pavilion, Minhang Palace and Iron Gate Guan. Standing on the Qingchuan Pavilion, blowing the river breeze, Wuhan Yangtze River Bridge and the opposite Yellow Crane Tower have a panoramic view, and the river view is beautiful. The architectural style combines the characteristics of the southern garden and the northern attic, exquisite and chic. It is free to open here, but you need to make an appointment in advance. Convenient transportation, bus Qingchuan Avenue Qingchuan Pavilion Station can be reached. The scenic spot also provides storage and explanation services. If there is enough time, you can go to Nan'anzui Park or Guishan Park after playing. And there are not so many people compared to the Yellow Crane Tower, the tour experience is good, it is worth a visit!

Come to Wuhan for the weekend to catch up with the rainy day, arrange the Hubei Provincial Museum, the collection of beautiful items, I feel very worth a visit. I chose to reserve tickets + 2 hours of explanation + clock performance tickets. It is very convenient and worry-free for foreign tourists. I met a very professional and patient interpreter, Mr. Wang Qian. She had many treasures about the collection of cultural relics, especially when explaining Zeng Hou Yi's clock and Yue Wang Gou Jian. Not only the craftsmanship and historical background of the cultural relics are detailed, but also many vivid historical stories are interspersed, so that the visit experience is more abundant. The expression is clear and smooth, very humorous, and the interaction with the children is very strong. It is especially recommended for the first time visitors. With her explanation, the museum trip is definitely full of harvest!
The Tang guide who led us to visit was very professional, enthusiastic and responsible. The itinerary was compact and reasonable. During the tour of the Hubei Provincial Museum, through the professional explanation of the Tang guide, I and my children gained a wealth of historical knowledge and a deeper understanding and learning of Jingchu culture. The harvest is great!

It's worth it. I thought it would be boring at first, but the actors are very good and give enough emotional value. The content is very rich. You may not be able to finish it in a day. Both the stage design and the staff are a feast for the eyes. "ψ(｀∇´)ψ
I have been back for several days and I am still thinking about it. This is an unforgettable trip, a trip that fully met my expectations and even exceeded them. Only Henan Drama Fantasy City makes people feel like a dream that has come true, beautiful and real, and worth visiting again and again.

Really good, such a large-scale scenic spot, such a conscience price, a colorful program, let us watch the lingering, I turned around for two days under the big sun, and I will come again during the New Year!
Three dozen Zhujiazhuang, Chengbei gunshots, and iron flowers have been seen, very beautiful. Personally, I prefer Shenzhou Iron Flower, and I feel more beautiful and more spectacular. Friends who don't grab iron flowers can go to see Shenzhou Iron Flower. I really like Bailemen. I sat at Bailemen for an afternoon. Sister Mina is super beautiful! ! ! Bailemen's programs are also very beautiful, Miss Sister is beautiful, Lucy is also very beautiful! ! I also hit the palms with Lucy sister! Everyone goes to Bailemen! !

Wudang Mountain, Hubei Mingshan, Taoist holy place, it is worth visiting. It is quite tiring to walk down the mountain by cable car. It is recommended to take the elderly and children to go down the mountain by cable car.
Wudang Mountain has a fairyland scenery, clouds and mist, and ancient trees are towering. The ancient buildings are well preserved, and the red walls and green tiles and carved murals show a deep historical and cultural heritage. It is worth visiting.

It was the last day of the Dragon Boat Festival, and there were unexpectedly few people. The children had a lot of fun and bought mobile phones to use. But the children were too young to walk far, so they were unable to appreciate the beautiful scenery of Songshan. I will come back when the children grow up.
**Historical Status**: Built in the Northern Wei Dynasty (495 AD), the birthplace of Zen Buddhism and Shaolin Kung Fu, the plaque inscribed by Emperor Kangxi at the gate of the mountain shows the royal recognition, and the stele inscription of "Thirteen Monks Save the King of Tang" in the Tang Dynasty confirms its martial arts orthodoxy.
**Core Relics**:
- **Architectural Complex**: The seven courtyards on the central axis include the Thousand Buddha Hall of the Yuan Dynasty (the mural of the Five Hundred Arhats of the Ming Dynasty) and the Chuzu Temple of the Song Dynasty (verified by the "Construction Method"), which combines the solemnity of official style with the simplicity of Zen Buddhism;
- **Pagoda Forest**: There are 228 existing tomb towers from the Tang Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, which are the largest in China and a living specimen of Buddhist architectural history;
- **Martial Arts Traces**: The 48 standing pits in the Thousand Buddha Hall and the mural of "Boxing Manual" of the Ming Dynasty verify the Kung Fu inheritance system.
**Focus of controversy**: Commercialization erodes the essence of Zen meditation - the scenic area is flooded with martial arts schools, and the surrounding shops are densely populated. Shifang Zen Temple used its name to make money, resulting in the 5A-level "limited rectification" in 2012; the original quiet artistic conception of "Bixi Suo Shaolin" is difficult to restore.
**Overall evaluation**: Its architecture, martial arts, and Zen values are irreplaceable, but overdevelopment has weakened the solemnity of religious places, and it is necessary to balance heritage protection and cultural tourism consumption.
