I thought Xi'an was already a place of great beauty! But it was not until I set foot in the divine capital of Luoyang that I realized the beauty of the world is even greater in Luoyang

A professional guide costs 58 yuan per person, offering in-depth interpretations of the stories behind the artifacts. Ancient Tomb Museum: A real tomb exploration experience to satisfy your adventurous desires. Luoyang Water Banquet: The sour and spicy taste is unique, but I personally prefer the richness of beef and mutton soup. Longmen Grottoes: The night view is dreamlike, it is recommended to go after 7:30 pm. The lighting of the giant Buddha needs to be manually controlled, and whether it can be lit depends on luck. Guanlin Temple: The burial site of Guan Yu's head, a must-visit for fans of the Three Kingdoms history. Mount Laojun: A double cableway experience, a ten-mile picturesque screen is all in view, and the elevator goes directly to the golden summit, easy and labor-saving. White Horse Temple: In addition to visiting, you can also rent exotic costumes for photos, and the makeup shops at the entrance have everything you need. Luoyi Ancient City and Ying Tian Gate: An excellent photo spot for Hanfu enthusiasts, but note that the lights go out at 11 pm, so it's advised to arrive early. Xigong Street: A paradise for foodies, Fang Guangzong's spicy soup and the street's potstickers are recommended. 【About Food】 Apricot Blossom Water Banquet Hall: Generous portions, peony swallow dishes are beautiful but have a unique taste, which requires adaptation. The sliced meat in soup, fried meatballs, and vegetarian potstickers are also delicious. Shi Li Xiang (Yiyong Street Store): Affordable prices, authentic taste. Especially recommended are the beef tripe hotpot, osmanthus ice powder, and rose two-tone rice cake. Today's Xiaojie Tianfu: Located on Xigong Street, it offers great value for money. The traditional plum soup and sweet and sour spicy potatoes are must-try dishes. Old Luoyang Noodle House: Starch noodles and confused noodles are authentic choices, and hawthorn salad and meat potstickers are also specialty dishes. Shizi Street Snacks: Although there is nothing particularly outstanding, it is bustling and a good place to stroll and experience the local atmosphere. The wheel cake, however, is not the first choice. Almond tea and sour soup crispy meat: Tasted at Shi Li Xiang (Yiyong Street Store), it is one of the local specialty foods. Fried meatballs: As a traditional snack of Luoyang, it tastes even better when paired with other dishes from the Apricot Blossom Water Banquet Hall. 【Conclusion】 A three-day tour of Luoyang allows us to wander in the long river of history, feeling the charm and grace of the ancient capital. Whether it's the weight of history or the temptation of food, it makes one linger and forget to return. I hope this guide will add more excitement and fun to your trip to Luoyang!
