Anonymous user:“If you go, head directly to the Confucius Temple parking lot. Avoid the visitor center, which is for tour groups.
The Confucius Temple uses an electronic guide, which is very detailed and convenient. The Confucius Cemetery is a 20-yuan round-trip tour bus with a guide. The Confucius Temple itself is quite impressive. The Confucius Cemetery is the burial ground of the Kong family, primarily containing the tombs of Confucius, his sons, and grandsons. It's about 300-400 meters from the ticket gate. I personally think this is enough; there's no need to explore the entire area.”
Anonymous user:“The peonies in Heze are the best in the world. They are extremely beautiful and fragrant. It is really nice to see them when they are in full bloom. The flowers are beautiful and there are many people. The only problem is that the traffic is a bit chaotic and parking is not very convenient. Overall, it is good.”

tomzhao:“Water Margin Hero City is located in Yuncheng County, Heze City. You can take a bus from Heze to Yuncheng County to get there. After booking tickets on Ctrip, you can directly scan the QR code of the mobile phone ticket booking at the gate of the scenic spot to enter the park. I entered the park at about 1 pm. I first visited the main attractions such as the Confucian Temple, Yuncheng County Government, and the Big Buddha Temple in order, and then watched the program according to the time of the program schedule. The characteristic of Water Margin Hero City is that there are performances throughout the day, performed at different scenic spots, and the performances are very exciting. The actors are also very dedicated, especially Li Kui's trial, throwing embroidered balls to recruit relatives, Yan Qing's competition, high-altitude suspension ropes, and global roller coasters. The performances are very exciting. You can visit various museums and courtyards inside during the performances. The lights of the scenic spot are turned on at 7 pm, and you can watch the light show, especially the fire pot and iron flower performances are very shocking. I didn't come out until the scenic spot closed at 9 o'clock. Water Margin Hero City is a scenic spot that is worth visiting. It integrates garden monuments, museum exhibitions, wonderful performances and night lights. The scenic area is well managed and the staff are also very enthusiastic. I will come again if I have the opportunity.”

Shin罗小黑黑:“Walking into the ancient city of Shangqiu, it feels like stepping into a museum that travels through time and space. The ancient city walls are mottled and vicissitudes, and the blue bricks and gray tiles tell the long years. Strolling along the streets of the ancient city, there are many buildings in the style of Ming and Qing Dynasties on both sides. The quaint shops sell various special snacks, such as oil tea and steamed buns. The rich fragrance is mouth-watering.
Walking through the bustling streets, we came to the center of the ancient city-Yingtian Academy. This was once one of the four major academies in the Northern Song Dynasty. The simple buildings and quiet courtyards make people feel the profound cultural heritage. Ancient books and cultural relics are displayed in the academy, as if you can hear the ancient students reading aloud.
Climbing up the ancient city wall and looking far away, the whole picture of the ancient city is in full view. Surrounded by the moat, the ancient buildings in the city are scattered, and the modern city outside the city complements the ancient city. The ancient city of Shangqiu is not only a witness to history, but also an intoxicating cultural sanctuary. Here, I seemed to touch the pulse of history and feel the inheritance of culture. This trip brought me a lot and made me full of respect and love for this city.”
pshr:“The old city of Caozhou was called Caozhou in ancient times and is now called Heze. It is a city of peonies everywhere, where everyone loves peonies and wants to innovate the peony chain. It is a cultural intersection of Shandong, where people speak Hebei and Henan dialects, and eat spicy hot pot and wontons. It is a city with a long history, with mounds everywhere, and Han tombs and Yuan ships recreating historical customs. It is a livable city with simple folk customs, prosperous markets, and beautiful night views. Ancient city Caozhou, youthful Heze.”

Anonymous user:“It's my second time to bring my kids here. We caught the one-year anniversary event of Jining Fantawild. This time it was the midnight show. We entered on time at 1 o'clock and played for a full eight hours. Except for the Old Summer Palace, we basically played all the projects we wanted to play (it was a bit of a pity that we passed the rapids). The queues for one or two projects (Flying and Far Away) were a bit long but within an acceptable range. The facilities inside are very new, and the service staff are generally young and enthusiastic. Rental of a car is 160, and water cups are 69 (unlimited drinks). The children had a lot of fun.”
