Recommendations for visiting the Zhu Ying in Chan Gorge

The Zhu Ying Tower, also known as 'Chan Gorge Zhu Ying', is located in Luoyang and is one of the eight small scenes of Luoyang. The Chan River flows through Mang Mountain, forming a deep gorge. Both sides of the river are planted with Zhu Ying cherry trees. When spring comes, all the trees revive. Looking from a distance, the red-faced cherry trees revealed in the green trees stretch for several miles, creating a very spectacular scene, hence the name 'Chan Gorge Zhu Ying'. The fence around the Zhu Ying Tower is carved with exquisite cherry blossom patterns, and the inside is a dazzling peony flower. The two flowers are displayed side by side, giving people a sense of elegance and grace. Today, the area around the restored Zhu Ying Tower is also full of cherry trees. Every spring, it becomes a pink ocean, where visitors can appreciate the beautiful scenery of the Tang Dynasty. The Zhu Ying Tower is suitable for shooting different styles of photography works such as Tang costumes, Tang Hanfu, princess costumes, new Chinese style, and Western Region style. In terms of shooting time, it is recommended to choose clear weather and the sunset time around 5 pm in winter. The light at this time is the softest and can better show the beauty of the Zhu Ying Tower. As an open scenic spot, the Zhu Ying Tower does not have a closing time, and visitors can come to visit at any time. In addition, the Luoyang Ancient Porcelain Specimen Museum is also located here. The opening hours are 9:00-12:00 and 13:30-17:00 (closed on Mondays), and it is open as usual on statutory holidays. The address is at the intersection of Xunhe Road and Binhe North Road in the old city area.
