📍Itinerary Introduction 1. Zhouqiao Ruins Park: $98 is totally worth it. You can witness an important and precious large-scale archaeological excavation site with guided explanations. Feel the shock and wonder of Kaifeng's layered city. 2. Iron Pagoda: It doesn't look particularly special from afar, but up close it's incredibly beautiful and exquisite, made entirely of glazed bricks. It's eye-opening. 3. Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden: Modeled after the famous painting 'Along the River During the Qingming Festival,' it seems very interesting. There are many outstanding performances inside. I watched the iron flower show and Yue Fei's horseback performance, both of which were stunning and surprising. I highly recommend AI Ya Song, an unprecedented immersive performance. At first, I thought the actors were robots. I watched it twice and still found it fascinating. 4. Kaifeng Museum: A bit disappointing. Basically, Kaifeng's most precious artifacts, the 'Along the River During the Qingming Festival' painting and Zhao Ji's thin gold script, have all gone to Beijing. Kaifeng only has replicas. If you're short on time, you can skip it. 🏠Accommodation Recommendation 1. Atour Hotel at Kaifeng North Station Museum 💡Notes:

Kaifeng, Henan, the ancient capital of eight dynasties Take your children to experience history, culture, and China. Although Kaifeng is not big, the arrangements for four days and three nights are still full. 🚉Transportation Tips: If you drive a car and park it at the hotel, it is best not to move. It is very convenient to take a taxi to go anywhere. The starting price is not expensive, 7 yuan. It is best to choose a hotel that is close to Qingming Riverside Park and Wansui Mountain. I chose the B&B opposite Tianbo Mansion. It is a 7-8 minute walk from these two attractions. 📝Note tips: Ctrip has a Zhengzhou annual pass for 100 yuan, which includes many attractions. If you are going to many attractions, it is best to buy an annual pass. Unlimited entry. 🗓Itinerary: On the first day, drive to Tianbo Mansion, pack your luggage, and have lunch. After dinner, go to Tianbo Mansion and Longting Park across the street. I went to Heda Night Market in the evening to eat snacks. There were a lot of people. ❤Recommendation reasons: 1. It is necessary to listen to the explanation of 60. Listen to the story of the Yang Family Generals. 2. There are many performances and they are all very exciting. It's worth a look, you can watch more if you are not in a hurry. 3. The boat ride in Longting Park is very artistic. 📝Note tips: Longting Park, Tianbo Mansion, and China Hanyuan are all next to each other. You can watch it together. Day 2: Kaifeng Museum-___Wansui Mountain ❤Recommendation reasons: 1. Kaifeng Museum, although it is a municipal museum, is very large inside, even larger than a provincial museum. It is highly recommended to take a look with children. There are free explanations in many exhibition halls. But there is a time limit. If you want to pay for a tour, you must make an appointment in advance. 2. Wansui Mountain is very big and there are so many performances. You can't finish it in one day. Tickets for Wansui Mountain are valid for three days. If you like, you can play for two more days. Day 3: Kaifeng Prefecture___Qingming Shanghe Park ❤Recommendation reasons: 1. Learn about Bao Gong and the administrative office in ancient China in Kaifeng Prefecture. 2. The Qingming Shanghe Park is very large and every performance is very shocking. Yue Fei challenged the young King of Liang with his spear, Yue Fei won a great victory in Yancheng, The Dream of the Song Dynasty. Be sure to go early to grab a good seat. Day 4: Relaxing tour of China Han Garden. Return trip. Visit the Forest of Steles, feed pigeons and watch performances. Relax and return. 🍽Dining recommendations: The night market has a lot of delicious food but it is crowded. The fried jelly is delicious. The baked carp noodles are sweet. You can try the soup dumplings at Yipinlou.

Kaifeng Museum, Tokyo Dream, a thousand years in one glance! From the old hill of the Xia Dynasty to today's Kaifeng, the electronic screen shows the layers of Kaifeng city throughout the ages, allowing you to feel the passage of time and the changes of history... (PS: The City Stacking Museum is small, but really worth a visit! If you have time, you can walk on the city wall... 5,000 years of history is right under your feet) There are so many precious cultural relics, such as the Kaifeng Prefecture Inscription, the Dasheng Bell, and many interesting cultural relics, such as the long-legged camel, the Tang Dynasty lady figurine holding a bird? and the little girl holding a duck, coins from different dynasties, exquisite bronze mirrors, the three brothers in the same tomb? ... The Water Transport Instrument Platform is very impressive! The seahorse and auspicious beast stone carvings of the Bian River site are only in photos, and I hope to have the opportunity to visit them next time. In addition to precious cultural relics, Kaifeng Museum also has more feelings, perhaps a photo, perhaps a sculpture, or even a place name... For example, Mencius met King Hui of Liang (the people are the most important, the state is the second, and the king is the least important), for example, Yi Yin's hometown, for example, Cao Zhi's tomb (talented), for example, Xinling Jun, for example, Hou Ying Well (the gatekeeper of Yimen, stealing the talisman to save Zhao, the two heroes of the ages, the great city of Daliang), for example, Li Bai, Du Fu and Gao Shi met at the ancient Chuitai... Countless romantic figures are always blown away by the wind and rain, countless histories are buried under the loess, but we descendants will always remember them.

🎈Kaifeng is a famous ancient capital in Chinese history, known as the "Eight Dynasties Ancient Capital". During the Northern Song Dynasty, Bianliang, as the capital, was once one of the most prosperous cities in the world. Its population reached 1.2-1.5 million during its heyday. On the first day, we ate Kaifeng soup dumplings! This restaurant is on the must-eat list. They only sell soup dumplings once a day, from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., and they are closed in the evening. We arrived at two o'clock and almost didn't get to eat. There were only buns and soup left because the chef had gone off work. Traditional soup dumplings are 18💰 a basket, seaweed and egg soup is 12💰, and almond tea is 10💰. Four people can eat a full meal for 100 yuan. The owner of Yan's Soup Dumplings was originally the chef of the First Floor West Lake Store. The baked noodles with big Yellow River carp cost 88 yuan. The fish is really big, and tastes sweet and sour. There is a distinct fishy smell at the first bite. I stopped noticing it as I ate. Bianjing Bucket Chicken is 48 yuan, salty and fresh, with fragrant chicken and chewy and smooth skin. Traditional soup dumplings are 25 yuan per basket, which is a bit more expensive than Yan’s. [Huangji Spicy Soup at Morning Market] A bowl of beef spicy soup is 6 yuan, and a bowl of vegetarian spicy soup is 4 yuan. You must buy the one with meat broth, it tastes right, the vegetarian one is really not tasty. Huang Ji Hu La Tang also has something similar, called an egg bag, which is smaller and costs only 3.5 yuan each. The small glutinous rice dough sticks look like large glutinous rice sticks, and I saw many locals ordering them. The eight-treasure porridge, which costs 3 yuan a bowl, is very large in quantity and thick. For thirty or forty yuan, four people had a very satisfying meal. 【Fang Mei Zhai time-honored dim sum】 Encounter by chance. It is a time-honored brand in Kaifeng that is an intangible cultural heritage. The things are quite cheap. I bought a bag of mulberry and hawthorn strips for 15 yuan per pound. Peanut cake is a specialty, very fragrant and delicious Kaifeng is a great scenic spot for family fun. Tickets for adults are 80 yuan, and for children they are 40 yuan, so you can have fun there for as little as 400 yuan. There are hundreds of performances every day from 9:00 to 22:00. 📍Don't expect to see a lot of performances, it's too big! It's tiring to run around to catch up with all the performances. It's better to just go with the flow and find a few key must-see performances. Watch whatever else you see and relax. Chengzhai Battlefield is a large performance venue. "The Three Strikes on Zhujiazhuang" at 17:00 and "The Iron Flower" at 20:30 are recommended must-sees. Especially the iron flower crafting, which is an intangible cultural heritage. The hot molten iron is struck out in the air, forming a splashing rain of gorgeous sparks. It's so diverse here, with a 2-hour large-scale song and dance show and a boxing match across the stage. You must go to [Daxiangguo Temple]. The Thousand-armed Guanyin in Daxiangguo Temple is carved from a whole ginkgo tree trunk. It took a craftsman 58 years to carve it. 📍Look at the wooden hollow on the brim of the hat. It took 8 years to carve. 🙏The Buddha Maitreya, the master of Guanyin Bodhisattva, is held up on it.

But it is a pity that due to various natural disasters and man-made tragedies, there are not many Kaifeng cultural relics left in Kaifeng today. In the huge and modern museums, the number of amazing collections is far less than imagined. Let's talk about parking first. Since there is a civic square next door and an artificial lake, there are so many citizens coming here to play on weekends that there is no problem of illegal parking. As long as you don't block the road and can squeeze in, you can park. The problem is that if you don't look carefully, you really can't squeeze in. I saw comments saying there is an underground parking lot, but I didn't find it. . . Let's talk about the visitor flow. Although it is not as popular as the Provincial Museum, it is also quite popular. I arrived at 3:30 in the afternoon, and it was still bustling. Next, let’s talk about the museum’s hardware facilities. As a new museum put into use in 2018, it is large in scale, and the exhibition level and various new light sources, low-reflection glass and other hardware facilities are all top-notch. The basic exhibition hall is on the second floor. Exhibition halls 1 to 6 introduce the past events in Kaifeng from the Neolithic Age to modern times in chronological order. It is a pity as to the exhibits. The calligraphy and paintings by famous artists are basically reproductions, while the authentic ones are either in the Provincial Museum, the National Museum or the Forbidden City. Exhibition Hall 3 is the special exhibition of Along the River During the Qingming Festival , explained in detail the past and present of this masterpiece and its several versions. The introduction is quite detailed, but there is not a single authentic one, which is a bit embarrassing. Although a lot of bronze wares were taken away from Baoji, at least there is the He Zun to guard the place. Compared with its historical status and heritage, these so-called treasures of Kaifeng are still a bit pale in comparison. Although the exhibits are not very amazing, I still learned a lot through the visit, such as it was Chai Rong who ordered the construction of Kaifeng's outer city, which formed a three-layer urban structure of Kaifeng with outer city, inner city and imperial city, laying the foundation for the Northern Song Dynasty's Tokyo City to become a world metropolis. I can't help but observe three minutes of silence for Chai Rong. If you had lived another 20 years, you might have completely changed the course of Chinese history. What a pity. The "Kaifeng Prefecture Inscription" stele, which is the treasure of the museum, is also quite interesting. You can find familiar names such as Kou Zhun, Ouyang Xiu, Cai Jing, and Fan Zhongyan on this stone stele, but you can't find Bao Zheng, the iconic figure of Kaifeng Prefecture. Why is that? The explanation given by experts is that he was so loved by the people that he was touched by people over the years, and thus the stone became dented. What is more regrettable is that the authentic stone tablet, which is the treasure of the museum, is indeed in Kaifeng, but the one on display is a fake. . . Finally, I have to complain about the modern and contemporary exhibition hall. I wanted to see how the official introduced how Kaifeng lost its position as the provincial capital, but this part was not included. . .

Although Kaifeng is the ancient capital of eight dynasties, many ancient buildings have not been preserved due to the long-term floods of the Yellow River. Most of them were rebuilt in later generations. The Kaifeng Museum was originally located on the shore of Baogong Lake and had a collection of more than 80,000 cultural relics. A new museum was built in Kaifeng New District in 2014 and opened in 2018. The museum's basic exhibitions include "The Ancient Capital of Eight Dynasties, a Thousand Years of Beijing" and "Kaifeng Memories - Exhibition of Modern and Contemporary Social Life". Special exhibitions include the Zhuxian Town New Year Pictures Exhibition, the Museum's Collection of Stone Carvings Exhibition, the Ming and Qing Royal Products Exhibition, the Ming and Qing Buddhist Statues Exhibition, the Song Dynasty Science and Technology Exhibition, etc. The "Da Sheng Yize" bronze chime bells of the Northern Song Dynasty (Figure 5) are 27.5 cm high, 18 cm in maximum diameter and weigh about 6 kg. The bell section is in the shape of a double Kui, the cymbals have 36 cymbals, and the dance and seal sections are decorated with coiled snake patterns. The two characters "Da Sheng" are engraved in seal script in the middle of the front, and "Yize" is engraved on the back. "Da Sheng" is the name of the court music bureau of the Northern Song Dynasty, and "Yize" is one of the ancient musical scales. The shape of the vessel is simple and elegant, the patterns are beautiful, and the seal carving is neat. There are more than ten known Da Sheng or Yamato style chime bells circulating in the world. Among them, three are in the Palace Museum in Beijing, one is in the Liaoning Provincial Museum, one is in the Kaifeng Museum, and one each is in Japan and Canada. The special exhibition of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" introduces multiple versions and shows animations. There are many versions of "Along the River During the Qingming Festival". According to statistics, there are more than 30 existing versions. There are more than 10 copies in mainland China, 9 copies in Taiwan, 5 copies in the United States, 4 copies in France, and 1 copy each in the United Kingdom and Japan. The most important ones are three versions: the Song version, the Ming version, and the Qing court version. 1. The Song version, that is, the original work by Zhang Zeduan of the Song Dynasty, is now in the Palace Museum in Beijing. 2. The Ming version, which is a copy by Ming Dynasty painter Qiu Ying, is now in the Liaoning Provincial Museum. 3. The Qing Dynasty Court Edition, which is the version created by court painters organized by Emperor Qianlong, is now in the National Palace Museum in Taipei. In fact, it is very easy to distinguish. In the Song version, there is a huge single-hole wooden bridge called "Hongqiao", while in the Ming and Qing versions there is only a stone bridge. Figure 8 is the Kaifeng Prefecture Inscription Stele, the treasure of Kaifeng Museum. This stele has a great history, so I will use a short article to introduce it... The bowl in Figure 6 was unearthed from the Jun kiln site in Ba Village, Yuzhou. The body is pure, thick and compact, the outer wall is rose purple, and there is a large rose purple spot at the mouth of the bowl. The rose purple and sky blue are intertwined and shaded, blending and penetrating each other, and setting off each other. It really is "half fire and half sea water", like love, both hot and tender.

Kaifeng Museum: Travel through history and experience cultural treasures The most surprising part of my trip to Kaifeng was the Kaifeng Museum. My husband had told me not to expect too much, but the moment I stepped into the museum, I was attracted by its grand and majestic architecture. In terms of tickets, no reservation is needed. You can get a ticket by swiping your ID card at the visitor center near the entrance, which is very convenient. In terms of transportation, it is very convenient to drive here. It only takes about an hour and the highway toll is 23 yuan. There is a place to park near the museum, so friends who drive can rest assured. In terms of visiting hours, it is open from 9:00 to 17:00 from Tuesday to Sunday, and tickets are stopped and the museum is closed at 16:00. It is closed on Mondays (except for statutory holidays and special circumstances). The recommended order of visit for the entire museum is to start from the second floor and visit in the order of the museum numbers. Each exhibition hall is very wonderful, especially the exhibition during the Song and Jin periods, which restores the architectural models and life scenes of that prosperous period, making people feel as if they have traveled back to that era. The dynamic Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival is even more breathtaking. The perfect combination of technology and art allows people to interact with the characters in the painting, as if they were in the painting. The special exhibition series on the first floor is also worth a look. The impressive exhibition halls include 'Painting Rhyme Year Abundant - Kaifeng Zhuxian Town Woodblock New Year Picture Art Exhibition', the Bao Da Ren on the New Year's picture is extremely cute; 'Auspicious Opening Purple Forbidden - Ming and Qing Royal Articles Exhibition', which shows the exquisite beauty of royal articles; 'Song Dynasty Technology Exhibition', which introduces the brilliant achievements of the Song Dynasty in technology. In addition, the recently popular Kaifeng Museum passport activity is also very interesting. After purchasing the passport, if you collect the 9 stamps on the passport and take a photo with the corresponding cultural relics and post it on social media, you can get a cultural and creative gift. The entire visit process takes about 2 hours, but it leaves people wanting more. This trip to the Kaifeng Museum not only allowed me to deeply understand the history and culture of Kaifeng, but also let me experience the surprise brought by a free and fun attraction. If you come to Kaifeng for a tour, be sure to arrange this free and fun attraction!
