Yellow River Scenic Area is mostly a section of hills along the Yellow River covered with bushes and trees and a large paved plaza. Along with the two large head statues, there are other statues, pavillions, and other buildings scattered around.
One of the most interesting things about it is a long cart slide on a track that winds from the top of a hill to the bottom. That is probably the most fun activity there.

Zhengzhou Food Exploration Shop|Bannu Maodu Hot Pot Concept Restaurant
The hot pot restaurant that was flopped in the variety show "Aspire to Life" went to the concept restaurant on Jinshui Road.
The appearance looks very design, the interior is also full of red, the space is very wide, there is no feeling of ordinary hot pot restaurant cramped, the tables and chairs are very open, preferring more and more, I don't want to put a few more tables. On the first floor, I have set up a large area.
I wish the side dishes are not hiding in the dark, but simply semi-open, with hot pot bottoms and side dishes. There is a small brother who is responsible for the bottom of the pot, there is a soup of the present, and then the bottom of the bagged good noodle.
There are also many red elements in this restaurant, such as robot carts that deliver side dishes, and a red corridor that can take photos of beautiful and beautiful cards.
There are three flavor pots and five flavor pots at the bottom of the pot. There are two kinds of spicy flavors: buttery and green pepper. In addition, you can mix with tomato soup or bone soup. Wild mountain soup is available. So in the end we chose the beef and spicy + bone soup + wild mountain mushroom soup, full of a table of dishes is still quite spectacular. Before the opening, everyone will drink a bowl of wild mountain soup, the sauce is self-adjusting, and some suggestions for modulation are directly attached to the side for reference.
Because it is a hairy hot pot, of course, the main point is the hairy belly. In addition to the classic hairy belly, in addition to the classic hairy belly, you can also order the New Zealand hairy belly, the hairy belly that crosses the sea. Have a taste. Both hairy bellyes are the same for seven or eight seconds.
There is a signature fruit shoot, the propaganda says that it can be eaten raw. If you try it, you can actually eat it, but I still like to cook the bamboo shoots.
Fen fritters are also featured here, like the biscuit sticks that children eat, the fritters taste more like bread.
Drink their home-made iron stick yam juice, the first time to drink, warm, similar to a mixture of rice paste and milk.
The time of duck intestines needs to be longer, and the hot pot will be more delicious. If you can't eat spicy food, the bone soup is also good, but some of the visceral ingredients are delicious in the hot pot, and another fish fillet is suitable for the soup pot.
I don't usually eat hot pot. I feel that the environment is messy, and I can't eat the hot pot. I really feel embarrassed, but this Banu Mao Duo hot pot makes people shine.

The Tucheng Wall in Zhengzhou was once the capital of 3,500 years ago. The history of the free park
Henan is very rich. Many cities have thousands of years of history. In Zhengzhou, the provincial capital, there is an unobtrusive heritage park with a history of more than 3,500 years and a national capital.
The ruins of the mall in the center of Zhengzhou are now a free and open park where locals like to come and exercise. From a distance, I saw a section of earth wall with a tour boardwalk.
According to archaeological studies, this piece of earth wall was once the capital of the Shang Dynasty, and it is also another ruin site next to the Yin Ruins. The outer wall was built around 1500 BC, while the inner city and the palace The construction of the city is much longer.
Many scholars believe that this is the capital of the Shang Dynasty in the middle of the Shang Dynasty, which is earlier than the Yin Ruins in Anyang, Henan. There are tens of thousands of cultural relics unearthed here, and many are rare treasures.
This ancient city has a rectangular layout. The perimeter of the wall is 6,960 meters and there are 11 gaps. Some of them may be gates. There are palace areas in the northeast of the city. There are many bases in the palace. Small site and well site.
The ruins park is now open to tourists free of charge. It is also very convenient for transportation in the city center. Take the subway to the East Street and get off at 10 minutes on foot. There are also Zhengzhou Temple of Literature and other attractions.
The ancient city ruins have a total area of 25 square kilometers and are large in scale. An Fang Ding unearthed from here, with a height of 100 cm and a weight of 86.4 kg, has become a symbol of Zhengzhou City. The city of Zhengzhou has undergone earth-shaking changes. The high-rise buildings in the Zhengdong New District in the east are a new city. There are many historical sites in the old city. The surrounding cities such as Luoyang and Kaifeng are well-known ancient capitals.
The Yellow River Scenic Area is located 20 kilometers northwest of Zhengzhou City on the bank of the Yellow River, south of Yuyue Mountain, and north of the Yellow River. It is the starting point of the hanging river on the Yellow River. The end of the Loess Plateau is also the boundary line between the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River.
The Yellow River, with a total length of 5,464 kilometers, has been flowing for hundreds of millions of years. It has arrived in Henan. Because of the water and sediment adjustment project, the water quality has become clear, providing better drinking water resources for the downstream people and alleviating the ground suspension. The water danger of the river.
Yanhuang Emperor's giant plastic backed by the mountain, facing the Yellow River, with a 55-meter-high whole Xiangyang Mountain as the body, and then a 51-meter-high head on the top of the mountain, the total height reached 106 meters. In front of the giant statue of the Emperor, there is an open square surrounded by trees. On the opposite side of the square is an altar. The altar to the statue has a 200-meter long Shinto on the axis, and four cast copper dades on both sides, together with the front. A total of nine tripods, meaning the Kyushu Qujiang Jiangshan Yonggu.
The side of Xiangyang Mountain is engraved with the famous "Yan Huang Fu", and the song Yan Yan created the glorious history of Chinese civilization. The altar opposite the
square is the place where the ancestral ceremonies are held. The altar shared 8,000 granites, symbolizing the 8000 years of civilization since the early Neolithic period.
There is a group of statues around the altar. The protagonist is the ancestors who made outstanding contributions to the development of Chinese civilization, such as Daxie and Wang Chong.
A white marble jade "nurturing" statue stands on the mountainside of Wulongfeng in the central scenic spot of the Yellow River Scenic Area. It visually compares the Yellow River to the mother who nurtures Chinese civilization.
