Longmen Grottoes

The Longmen Grottoes are very spectacular, very shocking, and the scenery is beautiful. Standing on the other side of the river to see the grottoes on the west bank has a special flavor. The Xiangshan Temple is very beautiful. The Baiyuan is also worth seeing. The elephant teacher said that Xiao Jiang's tour guide explained the delicate and comprehensive, serious and responsible, very good. In short, Luoyang Longmen Grottoes is a must-have place, highly recommended!

Longnian Tour Longmen Grottoes, Yuyue Longmen. The various grottoes in the Longmen Grottoes are also spectacular. Looking at the majesty of the Big Buddha, looking at it from a distance, it feels breathtaking. The experience of playing inside is high. The scenery at dusk reflects on the lake, which is beautiful. The moment I deliberately squat at night to turn on the lights, the night view is also beautiful, very good experience 👍

I arrived at around 6 o'clock in the evening, just to enjoy the scenery during the day and night, there are a lot of people at this time, I really dare not imagine the May Day... Because it is late, I didn't go to Chengbaiyuan at night. The scenery is very beautiful and shocking.

Xishan Grottoes are located in Longmen Mountain on the west bank of Yihe River, lights up at 19:00, From the north to the south, there are (there are countless small grottoes without introduction cards, and they are introduced one by one due to space restrictions): ① Ticket Gate: Lantern Avenue is behind the door of the 3-dong house. The night view of the avenue is very beautiful. ② Manshui Bridge: Sangongshi Highway Bridge, tourists walk through the bridge from the bottom of the bridge ③ Wangchi: Two water flows into the semi-circular pool on the wall, and the koi swims in the pool. The pool is named after the allusion of "Dragon Gate". There is a two-story stone house with a lock on the pool. Chen Yubei: Chen Yu, a famous hermit in the early Song Dynasty, wrote a book when she was reclusive in Huashan (5A). After being stolen, she went around several times. During the Qing Dynasty (1862-1875 years), Chen Zhaoxu, a Luoyang native, asked the monks to inscribe the water on the Longmen cliff wall after receiving the Linyi post.⑤ Qianxi Temple: chiselled in the Tang Gaozong period (649-683 years), the main Buddha Amitabha Buddha height 7.8 meters ⑥ Beiwei Binyang North Cave/Zhongdong/Nandong: chiselled in the first year of Jingming (500 years) to the four years of Zhengguang (523 years), It is the Gongde Grottoes opened by Xuanwu Emperor for his parents, plus Yongping Zhongxu Liu Teng for Xuanwu Emperor to open a total of 3, work 802366 people, because the court civil unrest only completed the Zhongdong (main Buddha III, there were 3 large reliefs in the front wall of the cave, of which "Xiaowen Emperor Li Buddha Map" and "Queen Li Buddha Map" The main body of the South Cave and the North Cave was completed in the Tang Dynasty. The main Buddha of the South Cave was8.6 meters high and equipped with more than 350 small Buddhas; the latter is the famous "scissors hand" Amitabha Buddha. This three-hole is the only royal grotto in China that clearly records the reasons, processes, and employment of the excavation. The monument of Ili Foqi: the original object of the famous monument of Northern Wei, high 2.88 meters, wide 1.9 meters, is the fourth son of Tang Taizong, and Li Tai, the fourth son of Wei Wang, the son of his mother, the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson At the same time, the inscription was opened in Binyang South Cave, and the inscription was written by the Prime Minister/prosecutortext, one of the four calligraphers in the early Tang DynastySui Liang's handwriting... The number of words exceeded the limit, and continued in the last picture

Taking advantage of the relatively few people before May Day, the first stop to bring family to Henan for tourism, is not a loss for the world cultural heritage, the first of the four grottoes, the superb skills of the grotto carving is too great, standing in front of the Buddha statue can not help but feel the wisdom of the ancients. The grottoes are mainly concentrated on the west bank of the river. The route is based on the route of going north to south on the west bank ☞ crossing the river ☞ south to north on the east bank. Before coming, I recommend the northwest parking lot on the Internet. It is close to the entrance of the scenic spot. It is indeed a lot closer to walking, but if you want to take a battery car to return to the parking lot when you return to the east bank, I can only sit in the Northeast parking lot, but it is farther away from the Northwest parking lot. People who can't walk want to take the shortest road back to the Northwest parking lot. Either walk or take a boat 40/person (the battery car in the Northwest parking lot is out of service). I really don't know if this is a diversion measure for the scenic spot. When shopping, it is best to explain or rent a guide, 30 yuan / table, deposit 200 / table, not to go around the flower.

Night tour Longmen has always been one of the characteristics of the entire Longmen Grottoes, but for some reasons, it stopped for a while. Today, March 30, Longmen Grottoes finally ushered in the first shining night. If you come to Luoyang during the Peony Festival, you want to see the scenery of the Longmen Grottoes at night. There are the following precautions, you can mark! 1. Even if you buy a ticket for the day, you can also visit the Longmen Grottoes at night. So I suggest that friends who want to take pictures of Longmen Grottoes, come in early in the afternoon, first enjoy the Longmen Grottoes during the day, and wait until the sun is about to fall, and the photos taken when it is going to be dark will be particularly blue and beautiful. 2. If you only want to see friends who travel at night, you can enter the scenic spot after 6 o'clock, and the fare is 90 yuan. There is no discount, and there are many attractions that you can't see. It is better to choose the afternoon time to come in. 3. The Longmen Grottoes at night are naturally the most beautiful in the main scenic spot, but don't just punch in the main scenic spot and leave in a hurry, because the river and mountains are taken on the opposite bank of the river, and the overall outline of the Longmen Grottoes is a beautiful picture. 4. Poor friends must pay attention to the latest bus, the last bus of No. 81 is 20:55, so it is recommended that you come in in the afternoon and see more than 8 o'clock to leave, so that you can take pictures of the beauty of day and night and don't worry about not having a bus to take a taxi back to the city. After all, Longmen Grottoes are still some distance from the city.

Located in Luoyang City, Henan Province, Longmen Grottoes is the world's largest and largest stone art treasure house, UNESCO named "the highest peak of Chinese stone art", ranking first of China's major grottoes. It is now a world cultural heritage, a key cultural relics protection unit in the country, and a national AAAAA-level tourist attraction. Non-holidays are already crowded. In order to see the night view, we grabbed a profit position on the other side of the Yi River early, and we didn't leave until we saw the scenery on earth.

A good attraction, was set up by the scenic spot artificial obstacles, into the parking lot for 40 minutes, along the road, some people said to give 20 yuan to stop the roadside or take you in, finally entered the scenic parking lot, but also took the battery car, walking by yourself It takes more than 20 minutes, and it takes a lot of road to get to the gate of the scenic spot. As a result, a bunch of people inside became two lanes, and they couldn't move in front, and they didn't know what was going on in the back. There is no staff to maintain order and explain. Management is too sparse
