Two-Day Trip Around Zhengzhou | A Super Detailed Guide to Baoquan, Xinxiang

If you've been in Zhengzhou for a while and are looking for a nearby place to relax, Baoquan in Xinxiang is an excellent choice. With its beautiful mountains and waters, and fresh air, it's a great escape from the city's hustle and bustle. If you're also planning a two-day trip around Zhengzhou, then take this guide! Departing from Zhengzhou, it takes about 1.5 hours to reach Baoquan by car. If you leave in the morning, you can arrive at the scenic area by late morning. The Baoquan Scenic Area is vast, divided into two main sections: Daxiagu (Grand Canyon) and Yatianxia. It's recommended to visit Daxiagu first on the first day. Here, the pools are emerald green, and waterfalls abound, with picturesque views at every turn, as if you've stepped into a fairyland. Follow the trail and check out attractions like Jianlong Waterfall, Yuelong Waterfall, and Emerald Lake. Every spot will make you want to stop and take photos. When you're tired, you can rest on the stone benches by the stream, enjoying the cool mountain breeze – it's incredibly relaxing. For accommodation, we recommend the Ge'er International Hotel, located next to the windmill on the south side of the scenic area. Its location is excellent, making it convenient for your activities on the second day. The hotel offers a variety of room types: families can choose the parent-child room with cute children's beds and toys that kids will surely love; couples can opt for a romantic king-size room with a view, where you can open the window to see beautiful mountain scenery. On the second day, head to Yatianxia to experience thrilling cliffside activities. Take the cable car up the mountain, enjoying the magnificent canyon views along the way. Once at the summit, challenge yourself with the glass skywalk, cliff roller coaster, and other attractions, feeling the exhilarating rush. In Yatianxia, you can also witness unique Danxia landforms, where red rocks and green vegetation complement each other beautifully, creating a stunning sight. Before heading back, don't forget to try local delicacies at restaurants near the scenic area, such as stir-fried wild vegetables with farm eggs and Baoquan Braised Noodles – both are excellent choices that will take your taste buds on a journey too.
