The hotel is fine, let me digress a little. This is my first time visiting Kaifeng in 6 years. The only thing that hasn't changed is the two-wheeled and three-wheeled motorcycles running rampant on the streets, regardless of whether they are on the motor vehicle lane or the non-motor vehicle lane, and regardless of the red and green lights.
The scenic area is nice and interesting. Let me digress a little. This is the first time I have come to Kaifeng to play in 6 years. The only thing that has not changed is the two-wheeled and three-wheeled motorcycles running around recklessly on the streets, regardless of whether they are on the motor vehicle lane or the non-motor vehicle lane, and regardless of the red light or green light.

"Wheat, Wheat" 🌟🌟🌟🌟The pacing and lighting are incredibly well-controlled, with many eye-opening moments. The story's premise is also brilliant. From ancient times to the present, countless Li Shiyi have silently dedicated themselves to us.
"Xue Huaiyi" 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟Must see! Must see! Must see! We watched it on xhs, and many people went for the lead actor's looks. The recommended best seats are also the ones closest to him. Sure enough, when he appeared, he was right in front of me, and the lights suddenly hit him. It really lit up, and he was so close to me.
I've known about "Only Henan" for a long time and always wanted to come, but never had the chance. Recently, I finally got to see it up close. It's too hot during the summer, so I suggest you go to the night show. You can go in the afternoon to take photos and choose the main performances. However, the time was too short, so I couldn't see it all, which was a pity.

Kaifeng Mansion is well worth a visit. The building is quite large and you can spend a long time exploring it. There are many shows being performed at different locations throughout the day starting at 9 o'clock. We went to watch two shows which were very interesting.
I have watched many TV dramas about Kaifeng Mansion. It was my first time to walk into the real Kaifeng Mansion. It felt magical. The statue of Bao Gong was tall and mighty, sacred and inviolable. It seemed that all the evil spirits could not hide in front of Bao Gong. Haha, it is worth a visit.

The time arrangement is reasonable, the tour guide is enthusiastic and thoughtful, and the explanation is detailed. I have to tell you that this is a tour group project. We go to the ship by car and return, and gather at about 8:20, so there is no need to get up so early. Of course, if you drive by yourself and want convenient parking, you still have to go a little earlier. The official parking fee is one yuan per hour, which is very cheap. Other shopping malls basically charge five yuan per hour, and the maximum is about forty yuan. Also, there is no need for seats and boxes on the cruise ship, because you basically won't sit in the seat all the time.
The Three Gorges Dam is majestic, the ship lift experience is super shocking, the Gezhouba ship lock is wonderful, and the cruise ship itself is spacious, comfortable and very stable. It's just that the queue at the Dam Experience Hall is long, and some elderly people and people with motion sickness may feel uncomfortable standing inside. It may be more humane if there are some seats. Also, the night view can be designed to be richer.

Very, very, very good, perfect for taking children. There are many performances and the animals are well-maintained. The Ultraman part was too much for the kids to walk. We also watched fireworks and had a water fight at night. Highly recommended! Although Zhengzhou is very hot, it was nice to visit the animals inside the venue. There are many measures to prevent heatstroke and cool down. There are large fans spraying water mist in the queue. Great!
There are many kinds of animals and performances. Most of the rides are not exciting, which is very suitable for family outings. But try to arrive at 10 o'clock when the door opens, otherwise one day may not be enough. The staff is very enthusiastic, but many projects require a long queue. You can consider the express pass, which is not expensive.

Half of the 200 yuan per person entrance fee went to the scenic area shuttle bus and ferry. The visitor center and Three Gorges Family Village are on opposite sides of the river. Paper tickets must be exchanged at the visitor center; ID cards are not accepted. Therefore, whether driving or taking a taxi, you must go to the visitor center. After exchanging the tickets, we took the shuttle bus to the pier, which is a bit of a distance up the mountain road. The ferry took us to the other side. Following online recommendations, we took the escalator up to Bawangzhai for 30 yuan per person. For 30 yuan, we took three escalators, but we still had to climb the mountain on our own. There were few tourists on the mountain, just Bawangzhai (with performances) and a quiet commercial street. The highlight of the scenic area, the "Water Village," is at the foot of the mountain, so the expense of going up and then trudging down felt like a waste. The Water Village Village has many local performances worth watching, and the scenery is much better than from the mountain. Overall, this scenic area isn't worth the price, and the entrance fee is a bit expensive. The next day, we visited the Qingjiang Gallery, and the scenery was much more stunning than that of the Three Gorges Family Village.
There is free tea in the first-class seats on the boat trip, and the scenery is pretty good, but it was too hot when we went there!!!! ...

Teacher Guoguo is very punctual, has solid professional knowledge and is very friendly. The children followed the teacher's pace throughout the whole process. He explained to us in detail the historical rise and fall of Luoyang, as well as the treasures of the museum!
Teacher Dawei's explanations were excellent! He was incredibly knowledgeable about the museum's artifacts and used them to weave together 5,000 years of history. He combined factual and imaginary elements, focusing on facts with humorous elements, making the explanations lively and engaging. He taught through lectures, tested students, and provided timely summaries to reinforce the lesson. He also used the ancient official promotion system as an incentive to encourage participation. The children enjoyed listening and learned a lot! Thumbs up!

The Jiahu bone flute expressed deep frustration.
Some parents, if you understand, explain it to your child. If not, either hire a guide or rent an audio guide, right? You claim you've already rented an audio guide, yet you're still interrupting, telling your child all sorts of backstory, unafraid of getting it wrong...
Visiting the Henan Provincial Museum, one of the museum's treasures is the Jiahu bone flute. A parent was talking to a child with an audio guide, saying, "Do you know what this is? It's a Qiang flute." Yes, you have a poem about that, right, 'Why should the Qiang flute blame the willows? The spring breeze doesn't reach Yumen Pass.' Yes, sweet child, that's awesome!
If I were the Jiahu bone flute, I'd be shattered right there...
The Jiahu bone flute, crafted 8,000 years ago from the middle Neolithic period, is the oldest and best-preserved wind instrument discovered in my country to date.
The bone flute is 23.6 cm long and has seven tone holes drilled into its body. Made from the ulna (wing bone) of a red-crowned crane, it boasts a beautiful tone and a complete musical scale, capable of producing music that approximates a seven-tone scale. This proves that the bone flutes crafted by the Jiahu people over 8,000 years ago already possessed seven tones, earning it the nickname "China's First Flute."
Historians have commented that "Jiahu culture, represented by the Jiahu bone flute, marks the first step in humanity's transition from barbarism to civilization."
Qiang flute? Hum...
The Qiang flute is also an ancient Chinese folk instrument with a history of over 2,000 years. At this age, it would be considered a national treasure in most other countries, but it's still considered underappreciated in China. The Qiang flute is a single-reed wind instrument popular in the Aba Tibetan and Qiang Autonomous Prefecture in northern Sichuan, where the Qiang people live. Its main differences from the bone flute are twofold: it is made of bamboo, and it has two tubes with multiple holes. Despite sharing a similar name, the Qiang flute is not the same instrument.
So parents who take their children to the museum, please remember the words of Confucius, "To know what you know and to know what you do not know is true knowledge."
I always choose to visit this museum with my kids during summer vacations to explore Henan's history and learn about its past and present. It's incredibly popular.
I personally think that even though admission is free, a guided tour is essential. Guide Huang had a tough time leading our group today. Despite the scorching summer heat, and the presence of elderly people, children, and latecomers, he still enthusiastically introduced us to Henan in great detail, allowing us to admire each of the museum's nine treasures and learn about their provenance and history.
It was a truly wonderful trip.

Kaifeng Museum
Although the museum isn't large and doesn't feature many so-called fine artifacts, it's packed with details and well worth a visit.
First, the clock in the first-floor lobby. Besides the time scale, the dial features spiral lines that display the names of Kaifeng throughout its dynasties, moving from the inside out. The hands scroll through these names, reminiscent of the ongoing march of history. In the combined exhibition hall, a series of stacked transparent glass panels vividly depicts the impressive appearance of Kaifeng's city upon city.
The Song Dynasty science and technology exhibition in the atrium is even more astounding. The massive water-powered astronomical observatory in the center is a 1:1 replica of the "ancient high-tech" technology I've only seen in books. It's hard to imagine how the ancients designed, crafted, and assembled such a massive, complex, ingenious, and precise object.
Kaifeng Museum has a rich collection and professional explanations. There are volunteer guides as well as paid guides. I have personally found that the volunteer explanations are more professional. It will be helpful for you to pay attention to the time of the volunteer guides at the front desk.
