Two Massive City Gates on One Street? Welcome to Lijingmen, Luoyang! 🏯

#hellohalloween Yes — it’s one of the most striking sights in Luoyang’s Old Town. On Lijingmen Street, you’ll find what feels like double protection: two towering city gates aligned in a straight line, giving the street a dramatic, fortress-like appearance. 🏯 What Makes It Special? Lijing Gate (丽景门) is the main ancient entrance to Luoyang Old Town. Just beyond it, further down the same street, stands another gate structure, creating a rare double-gate corridor effect. Walking through them feels like stepping through layers of history — from the outer defenses into the bustling modern-day historic street.

White Horse Temple

I visited Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang in August to witness the magnificent grottoes. From the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Tang Dynasty, the Longmen Grottoes are the product of generations of dedicated effort, carved into the mountain walls, one chisel at a time, a truly breathtaking sight. The Longmen Grottoes stretch along the Yi River, and if you have the opportunity, you can enjoy a different kind of beauty at night. White Horse Temple, Lijing Gate, and Cross Street are also must-see attractions in Longmen, Luoyang. Journeying through the ancient capital, exploring historical sites, and even in the scorching summer heat, the impressions are breathtaking.
