The Longmen Grottoes are well worth a visit, and the night view is especially stunning. Despite the scorching summer heat, the West Grottoes were already quite cool in the evening, perfect for waiting for the lighting of the Vairocana Buddha, which felt like a journey through a thousand years of time. Highly recommended, and I look forward to returning!
The following is a review of the Longmen Grottoes:
Historical and Cultural Value
• Long History: The Longmen Grottoes were excavated when Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty relocated the capital to Luoyang. Construction continued for over 400 years, spanning the Eastern Wei, Western Wei, Northern Qi, Sui, Tang, and Song dynasties, witnessing the changes of multiple historical periods.
• Cultural Fusion: The Buddha statues, stele inscriptions, and other artifacts within the grottoes are not only important carriers of Buddhist culture but also vividly reflect ancient Chinese politics, economy, and culture, demonstrating the profound integration of Buddhist culture with indigenous Chinese culture.
Artistic Value
• Exquisite Carvings: The Longmen Grottoes currently contain 2,345 grottoes and niches, and over 100,000 stone sculptures. Each Buddha statue's clothing, facial expressions, and gestures are vividly carved, showcasing a high level of artistic skill. • Diverse Styles: Northern Wei Dynasty Buddha statues feature flowing lines and an elegant demeanor, embodying the Central Plains style of "slender bones and clear figures, wide robes and wide belts." Tang Dynasty statues are plump, rounded, and elegant, embodying the Tang Dynasty style of "voluptuous figures and rounded features."
• Calligraphy Treasures: Longmen Grottoes is also the largest forest of ancient cliff-carved stele in China's grotto temples. The "Twenty Fragments of Longmen" are the essence of Wei Dynasty stele, and the "Yique Buddha Shrine Stele" is a prime example of early Tang Dynasty regular script, possessing extremely high calligraphic artistic value.
Tour Experience
• Well-Rounded Tour Routes: The scenic area is divided into the West Mountain Grottoes, East Mountain Grottoes, Xiangshan Temple, and White Garden. The tour route is strategically designed, allowing visitors to explore the grottoes in sequence without backtracking, allowing them to fully appreciate the beauty of the grottoes.
• Comprehensive Supporting Facilities: The scenic area offers rest areas, dining areas, and shopping areas for visitors' convenience. In addition, the scenic area offers a variety of guided tours, including intelligent voice guides and guides by internet celebrities, to help visitors better understand the historical and cultural significance of Longmen Grottoes.
• Unique Night View: When the lights first come on, the thousands of niches illuminate like stars, casting a hazy veil over the Buddha statue. Under the golden light, the Vairocana Buddha gazes compassionately upon all things. The shimmering light and shadow create a dreamlike experience, offering visitors a brand new visual experience.
Preservation and Heritage
• Digital Preservation: The Longmen Grottoes Research Institute utilizes 3D digital technology and "data aggregation" to reunite some of the Longmen Grottoes' artifacts, which were dispersed both domestically and internationally. They have also conducted research on the virtual restoration of the Empress Worshiping Buddha painting in the Binyang Middle Cave.

The children had a lot of fun playing. It was fun to interact with the NPCs. They also learned a lot of knowledge and took a lot of nice photos. They were very satisfied and had a lot of fun. The children said they would come again next time.
There were too many people and the system had problems. I swiped my ID card to get a refund for my child's ticket, but my phone showed it was normal. It took me half a day to get in. I suggest that you buy tickets in advance if you buy online! You can only take good photos at night. If you want to change your clothes, you should do it about 2 hours in advance. Girls have a long time to put on makeup!

Paradise Mingtang net red punch card holy place Paradise Mingtang should not spend a lot of money to enter the night ticket for the thousand-year-old Sui Tang Ganjin Capital: 88/person half price/45/person, free ticket opening time for people under 12/60 years old: 9：00-23:00 Scenic Area lighting time: 19:00 Transportation: It is best to park the bus around at night 8.26.33 Road and so on Metro Line 1, Yingtianmen Station, C2/A Exit Paradise Mingtang is a rebuilt ancient site. The real Paradise Mingtang is much larger than the rebuilt. There are ruins and records in the park. Paradise and Mingtang are the core buildings of Luoyang City, the Sui and Tang Dynasty, and the palace city was built during the Wuzetian ruling period. In 684 AD, Wu Zetian took Luoyang as the capital of the gods, replacing Chang'an as the political center, and it is also the place where China's only orthodox female emperor (Wu Zetian) ascended to power. The Mingtang has two floors. The first floor is the original Mingtang ruins (only one pillar pit). The surrounding area is some things and small performances about Wuzetian. The second floor is the core punching area of Mingtang. It is the place where Wuze Tianchao government was in the past. It can be described as magnificent at a glance. It is also the best C position for indoor photos. The nine floors of the five-story outer heaven, the imperial ceremony system that is the honor of the nine-fifths, take the elevator to the nine-story, the white view of the gods are good scenery, the night feels the Tang Dynasty, the 2-8 floors are commercialized, it is not recommended to waste physical energy on the first floor for the paradise site (or a pillar pit). Paradise Mingtang is mainly based on punching in and taking pictures. If you love history and culture, you may wish to enter the visit. If you need to explain, you can find a more cost-effective fish. You can come here with a beautiful makeup. After returning to Sui and Tang Dynasty 7:39, feel the princess trip. Personal advice is not recommended to buy tickets to enter. It is good to makeup when you punch in and take pictures: The price is 68-300+, mainly based on clothing accessories and makeup, deposit 100-200 (some stores can be exempted from deposit). As for makeup technology, you don’t have to worry, you can be satisfied, communicate and adjust at any time, as long as you want the style, each store can make it, The only difference is the variety of clothing and accessories in the store. Makeup shop: all concentrated in Yingtianmen to Luoqi Ancient City, there are also some in the office building (most concentrated is Luoqi Ancient City) except for the peak season, no matter how much to go to that place to bargain, maybe more cost-effective than your group purchase. Photography: Yingtianmen single 3.5-5 yuan/Zhang, package 68-299 yuan, respectively 15-30 negatives + 5 photos (can be tried first, in the determination) There is a (pit) and another (Weiyang indigenous is not convenient to say here, afraid of being attacked by the group,) As Luo (if the money is not bad), please ignore it. If necessary, there are also temporary rental card machines/patches/SLRs/photograph equipment, dozens to hundreds. Personal suggestion: because the background is strong, it is also a blockbuster film everywhere, but it is best to bring a supplement light. Tired of playing, there are night markets around, but there is nothing to recommend food [price ratio]
Although Luoyang Mingtang is a rebuilt landscape on the original site, it is magnificent and majestic, with the atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The music and dance performances are exquisitely performed, and it is worth a visit!

Overall, it was average. The performance of "Tracing the Goddess of Luo River"
The charm of art is that it makes people shout along and their eyes moisten. There are traces to be found everywhere.
The only thing is that I was standing the whole time, which was a bit tiring.
It's okay to take pictures, walk around nearby, and read books, but it's not so good for a long time.
Luoyang Dahehui, adjacent to Luoyang Airport, is a business district with a corner view. Unfortunately, the investment attraction is poor, and there are not many catering businesses left. Most people come here to watch "The Legend of the Goddess of Luo River". It is indeed unnecessary to come here specially, but if you happen to have half a day to wait for a plane, it is recommended to come and have a look.
1️⃣ For lunch, we chose "Yuanwei Beef Tripe King". The store looks very upright and bright. The boss's secret sauce is unique. We wanted to buy some to take back, but unfortunately we were told that there was a daily limit and we were worried that it would go bad easily, so we did not recommend taking it back. We were afraid that it would go bad when we got home. The design of the beef offal is unique, so friends who like it can decisively choose it.
2️⃣ In the afternoon, I went to the "Returning Goose Chinese Life Aesthetics Museum" for a tour. It is an experience hall of library, coffee shop + Internet celebrity art display, especially its circular book area and mirrored U-shaped bookshelf area are beyond the film. Don't miss it, my dears.
3️⃣If you are free in the evening, you can add a performance of "Tracing the Goddess of Luo River"
There are many unique indoor and outdoor installations that are quite distinctive shooting spots. If you have time, you can go around.

Very exciting, highly recommended!!! On the first night, we watched "Tracing the Goddess of Luo River", which was quite creative. On the second night, we watched "Phoenix Dances in the Capital of Gods" at Jiuzhou Pool. The spacious venue made the whole theater even more magnificent, and the lighting and sound were excellent. Overall, both performances were very exciting and were highly praised by our family of seven. It is worth seeing when visiting Luoyang.
Luoyang Kyushu Chi Chao full guide plate night view is beautiful to suffocate|How can you miss the fairy attraction of Kyushu Chi when you come to Luoyang through the beautiful secret of Shengtang? This was once the scene of Wu Zetian's "back garden" film. At night, you will directly change to Chang'an Evernight City during the day. The ancient style is well received during the day. Take you to play in Kyushu Pool, avoid crowds, and easily take pictures of the atmosphere. The highlights of Kyushu Pool must be punched in **×* The palace must be rushed! ! Standing on the second floor overlooking the panoramic view, instantly get the female emperor's perspective, red wall gold tiles + blue sky and white clouds, every shot is the sense of "Daming Palace Ci" drama!

There is NPC carrying lanterns to the park, and it is a second through to Datang!

There is a nostalgic shop in the ancient city, there are books for young people who sell children, etc. The food inside is also good, especially the beef pot stickers, you must see the performance time of the fairy scattered in advance, it is worth seeing, very exciting. Walking slowly in the ancient city, comfortable and comfortable! 🌹🌹🌹
Luoyi Ancient City is near our homestay, and it only takes ten minutes to walk there. At 8 o'clock in the evening, there is a performance of the goddess scattering flowers. It is best to watch it at night. It is hot during the day and the scenery is not good. At night, there are lights, plus Hanfu, it is really beautiful. Sometimes I want to go there, but I am embarrassed to go in without wearing Hanfu, as if I have traveled through time. Hahahaha, and downstairs from our homestay is the Emperor Wu Feast, which is also very popular now. You can bring your family and friends to experience the customs and food of Luoyang in depth. That is our Luoyang Water Banquet.

The peonies in Luoyang are about to fade, and only a few peonies and peonies can be seen in the greenhouse, but they are also beautiful. The staff said that only the International Peony Garden has the most flowers now, but it is too far after all, and I don’t want to rush there. The location here is convenient, just cross the road after visiting Luobo.
There was a strong wind the day before we went there, but fortunately the peonies were not completely damaged. We saw the silver thread penetrating the tops, which was very nice. The entire botanical garden is very large, so it is recommended to spend half a day to stroll around.

Not bad, not bad, I learned a lot.
The description says Lijing Gate is the west gate of Luoyang Ancient City. I originally thought it was the west gate of Luoyang City during the Sui and Tang Dynasties! And Yingtian Gate is the south gate. Why don't the current Yingtian Gate and Lijing Gate locations match on the map? So that's it.
Lijingmen is definitely the essence of Luoyang Old Town! It feels superb to climb the tower overlooking the old street, especially when the lights are on in the evening. The food stalls in the door are too fragrant, and you must try them without turning over soup and water mat dishes. There are special shops on both sides of the Qingshiban Road. It is good to buy some peony cakes and Tang Sancai as a souvenir. Tickets are 30 yuan more expensive, but including the city building and the city tour is quite worth it. It is recommended to come at night, the night view is more charming, and you can also visit the Cross Street Night Market by the way. The only downside is that people are crowded, but the lively atmosphere is more tasteful! Come to Luoyang to play here must be arranged~

Wangcheng Park, a shining pearl in the historical and cultural city of Luoyang, carries a heavy historical heritage and is filled with modern vitality and vigor. Stepping into the park, it feels like being in a colorful painting.
Walking along the winding path, there are green trees and flowers on both sides. In the peony garden, peonies of various colors are blooming, red like fire, pink like clouds, white like snow, delicate and fragrant. The breeze blows, and the petals sway gently, like a dancing girl, beautiful beyond words. Tourists shuttle through it, stop to take pictures, and their faces are filled with happy smiles.
Through the peony garden, it is the famous Wangcheng Zoo. Rare animals from all over the world are gathered here. The majestic tiger paced in the cage, revealing the king's domineering look in his eyes; the cute giant panda nibbled bamboo leisurely, full of cuteness, which attracted bursts of laughter from tourists; the giraffe stretched its neck gracefully and took the leaves from the tourists. Its tall body and gentle eyes made people love it.
Continue walking along the lake, the lake is sparkling and rippling. On the lake, several cruise ships slowly passed by, leaving ripples. The willow trees by the lake swayed in the wind, and the willow branches gently brushed the water, like a girl's long hair. The Wangcheng Bridge in the distance spanned the lake, magnificent and magnificent, complementing the surrounding natural scenery.
Wangcheng Park is not only a treasure land of natural beauty, but also a place full of humanistic atmosphere. There are many historical sites in the park, such as the ancient site of Wangcheng and Zhouwangcheng Square, which make people feel the long history and culture of this city. Here, nature and history are perfectly integrated, making people linger.
As the sun sets, the afterglow shines on every corner of the park, covering the land with a golden coat. I left Wangcheng Park reluctantly with full of memories. This trip made me deeply feel the unique charm of the ancient city of Luoyang, and made me love this land even more.
The advantages and disadvantages of going to enjoy the flowers during the Qingming Festival are obvious
Advantages:1. In the city center, public transportation is convenient. It is recommended to take the subway, as traffic jams are serious. There are many time-honored restaurants around
2. The area for flower viewing is small, so it's easy to walk. Turn left after entering the gate and you will see the peony garden.
3. Famous, long history, and cultural name
The disadvantage is that there are too many people. It seems that entering the park at night can avoid the large flow of tourists. Compared with the 50 yuan fixed price ticket, the cost performance is low
