The tour started with a meeting point to board a bus to bring us to the attraction entrance. Our guide Lianghua was punctual, gave us an introduction of the Mount Tai and brought us around. She was readily available to answer our questions and was helpful throughout the tour. The climb at the 18 bends was challenging yet satisfying. Over 3000 steps. The view at the peak was great and totally worth it. Amazing experience overall.
Overall, I like the cable car at Mount Tai, but the scenery at Mount Tai is really good. The price is not expensive, especially for the elderly, who are free or half price, which is very friendly. You don’t have to carry too many things up the mountain, and there are things for sale. I personally feel that it is not very expensive and within an acceptable range.

Stepping into Baotu Spring Park feels like stepping into a natural ink painting. Three clear springs gush endlessly, like jade liquid rising into the air and snow-capped waves surging, their endless vitality awe-inspiring! Surrounding the park are exquisite pavilions and weeping willows swaying in the water, perfectly blending the grandeur of northern gardens with the graceful beauty of Jiangnan scenery. Li Qingzhao's former residence, nestled within the park, adds a touch of cultural elegance. The water is crystal clear, revealing the bottom, and koi carp swim gracefully. Watching from the railing, your heart follows the tranquility of the springs, and your worries vanish. Admire the crabapple blossoms in spring and the chrysanthemums in autumn. The misty winter air, shrouded in mist, creates a truly dreamlike scene. Jinan's soul converges here, truly the most vibrant pearl of the Qilu region!
Baotu Spring is very beautiful in autumn. I was lucky enough to see the spring. It is worth visiting. Unfortunately, parking is a bit difficult on weekends. The scenic area's tour guide time is also a bit expensive compared to the tour guide fee.

The experience is very strong, and there are many interactive activities. In fact, it is lively when there are many people, and it is more immersive. The iron flowers at night are particularly beautiful, and it feels great! I will go there again if I have the chance.
Gently unfold this five-meter-long scroll, and the bustling scene of the Northern Song Dynasty capital seems to come alive before your eyes. The Bian River runs through the entire city like a jade belt, and the bustling streets and quiet villages on the river bank complement each other.

I spent five hours exploring the area without any research, and without even checking a map, I just wandered around. I only saw a few shows, and the exciting ones that required reservations were all sold out. Since I got half-price admission, it was a great value.
This attraction is actually worth a full day. It's not suitable for seniors or adults.
Full marks needless to say, I deliberately avoided holidays when I went there, but there were still too many people and it was overloaded. Once there are too many people, the experience will be greatly reduced. Some popular projects require a long queue. The weather was very hot and it was really unbearable to queue for an hour or two. I still give it full marks for the sake of the conscience of the scenic spot.

The happiest thing was seeing Director Wang's work. Every time I go to Zhengzhou on business, I'm always rushed out, and my ticket reservations are repeatedly postponed due to work. This time, I didn't miss the appointment. Even though it was raining, I was still enthusiastic about the show, and there was no need to queue. However, because I had so little time, I only saw two shows, only the Henan show. Having been here, I have no regrets. Next time, I have the chance to come back and bring my children with me.
Henan's attractions won't disappoint! Every theater is refreshing, both in content and performance. Don't worry about your children getting lost in the action. They might not fully grasp the content, but the performances will definitely captivate them, so both adults and children will find something they enjoy!

This trip to the Confucius Temple and Confucius Mansion was a truly enriching cultural experience, guided by our guide, Xun. His explanations were easy to understand and gave us a vivid and engaging understanding of Confucian culture. Free luggage storage was available before the tour, and a dedicated shuttle service was provided to return us to the departure point afterward, which was very convenient. The Ctrip staff were also very welcoming.
Qufu boasts the Confucius Temple, Confucius Mansion, and Confucius Cemetery. I drove all the way from Beijing with my nearly 80-year-old parents to visit. Admission is free for those over 60, so I give Shandong a big thumbs up for its cultural tourism. It fulfilled my parents' wish to see the sage's office and residence. Perfect!

The scenic area has a good environment and is in the style of the Southern Taihang Mountains. However, there are big problems with the management order. During holidays, there are many people queuing up, and the operation is not timely. It should be that they were not well prepared after the sudden popularity. Everything else is good and the scenery is worth seeing.
Fortunately, we took the A line of the scenic area, which saved effort (going down the stairs). We bought a package ticket and the scenery was great - we could see the mountains, water, and clouds! The road signs in the scenic area were also clear.

In Kaifeng, this attraction is still worth a visit. It will take a long time to see it in a hurry, but it will take some time to take a closer look. There are performances, so you need to pay attention to the time.
It's beautiful. The current Kaifeng Prefecture was rebuilt according to the Song Dynasty's "Yingzaofashi" (Architectural Style). Each show is designed based on the scenic location. The show in the main hall revolves around the four Kaifeng prefects; the Mingli Garden depicts scenes of studying and the imperial examinations during the Song Dynasty; the Yingwu Tower features martial arts competitions and sparring sessions, with many fighting scenes; the Qianlong Palace is the most beautiful. There's a pool in front, which seems to symbolize the saying "a hidden dragon in the abyss." The show here mainly reflects Su Shi's life through his perspective, showcasing the prosperity of the Song Dynasty. Each major show includes several smaller acts, which shows that the planning and rehearsal team has carefully researched the show. My friend and I were thrilled to watch it. I don't know why, but it probably resonated with us. The actor who played Mr. Bao that night was also very good. He was tall, imposing, and professional. He had so many lines that I even ran into him reciting them on my way to the restroom.
There were some minor flaws throughout the entire show. The show started at 6 PM, but I hadn't mentioned it in the reservation or official account, so we didn't get in until around 8 PM, missing a lot of the show. (The program list in Kaifeng is very long and long.) Also, there are too few seats. Many people who arrived later had no place to sit, so they stood in the front, blocking the people behind from watching the performance. There were no staff to maintain order.

Very satisfied. It's not far from the end of the main street. After getting off the shuttle bus, it's only a few minutes' walk away. It's very clean, the bedding is not damp, and the bathroom doesn't smell at all. The cleaning lady cleans very carefully. There's a convenience store downstairs, and you can eat pollution-free apples. The proprietresses are two very beautiful older sisters. They are very nice. I was really satisfied and stayed there for two days. The scenery of Yuntaishan is very beautiful. The proprietress recommended that if you bring a baby, you must visit Red Stone Man and Quanpu Gorge. The recommendation was very accurate. We also played on the jungle slide in Macaque Valley, and the children were very happy.
Is it worth spending 20 yuan to save 20 minutes of walking up the mountain? Everyone has their own opinion. You missed a little scenery, but you can see another little scenery.

It is well worth a visit, as you can travel back to the Western Han Dynasty 2,000 years ago. Here, you can see the life view that death is as important as life from the layout of the 15 functional rooms of the King of Chu, marvel at the precision of measurement and positioning while walking along two laser-level parallel lines, and see the spatial mechanics of hollowing out half a mountain without collapse, as well as the underground canal system for drainage and moisture prevention.
Very good, very good value for money. I'd stay here again next time. The subway station is 500 meters away, and the high-speed rail station is about a ten-minute taxi ride away. I took a special express train for only 4.8 yuan. I wouldn't bother taking the subway. There's a commercial building downstairs, the room was clean, and the breakfast was really good. There's also a laundry room and a gym.
