    "Very recommended 5A scenic spot, the price itinerary is transparent, the route is clear, and it is easy to choose different routes to visit the attractions. I take the air-conditioned car in the scenic spot from the visitor center, play one by one, Prince Po, Zixuan Palace and Nanyan Palace, and finally start from Nanyan to Jinding, which takes 3 hours and 15 minutes. In fact, it is very slow to walk, the cable car 🚡 down the mountain, and the combination of labor and leisure! Booking tickets from Trip.com (ticket 🎫 and cable car tickets) is more convenient and simple. In one day, I returned to the mountain gate at 5 pm."

    "As a fan of the three countries, Gulongzhong is definitely a long-awaited attraction. The scenic spot is not far from the urban area of Xiangyang , and it is very convenient to drive or take public transportation here. The internal mountains and rivers are towering around the ancient trees, and the humanistic atmosphere is also very heavy. It is worth a visit."

    "Very good experience, as a history fan, you can see the teacher's historical skills, including the understanding of Buddhist culture, are very comprehensive, and the side expo fuze is handcuffed. Although the grotto itself is not very long, many people spend more time taking a good-looking photo. But I followed the teacher for nearly 3 hours and passed by. I didn't know that Yishui, Longmen, Yili, Beiwei, and Tang Dynasty all came to dreams. Like the elephant Chen Chen"

    "The form is novel, the scene design is grand, and the history of Luoyang is very cleverly integrated into a variety of forms of performance. Very good program, the actors are also very infectious, it is worth seeing. Immersive viewing in the march is a feature but may have some impact on some elderly or weak people. I hope to consider the design of some barrier-free passages. The theater is in Dahejing, and there are also online red punching points such as Guiyi Bookstore. You can take a look together."

Witness the encounter between Cao Zhi and Luo Shen, experience the melancholy of a wanderer searching for his roots, and explore the state of mind of a man of letters...Saints, masters, and famous poets gathered together in Luoyang across thousands of years. The story of Chinese civilization begins here - the beginning of Xia and Shang Dynasties, when they cast tripods and carved inscriptions; the Duke of Zhou established his capital and made rituals and music; the Three Kingdoms and the Jin Dynasty were both literary and military; the Buddhist capital of the Northern Wei Dynasty was the wonder of Jialan; the prosperous Sui and Tang Dynasties, when all nations came to court; the Northern Song Dynasty In Xijing, celebrities gathered.immersive museumThe immersive museum relies on the form of "digital" cultural exhibitions to fully and three-dimensionally reproduce the glory of the ancient capital Luoyang.

The Sui and Tang Dynasty Canals, the Wanli Tea Road, the Prairie Silk Road, the Desert Silk Road, and the Maritime Silk Road were all transportation arteries from different periods that converged in Luoyang, forming a "five-way road to Luoyang" transportation pattern. They were not only economic and trade roads, but also cultural exchanges.

    "Free booking tickets can not be booked in the official account of Luoyang Museum, so I have to endure the pain to buy a package ticket, and I will buy it at once. The day before I went, I notified Wu Zetianzhan that the exhibition was cancelled, and I changed to a six-carriage museum exhibition for us, and refunded us 10 yuan per person. Nothing to do, or should say that they earn to book the original free tickets for us. Earn more than 50 people, Luoyang Museum owes an explanation!"

    "The night view of Yingtianmen is beautiful, and you must check in when you visit Luoyang. You can climb the tower to see the Tang Palace Leyan Festival and overlook the city. The night view is the best, you can come in the evening. It is best to buy tickets around 7 o'clock in the evening to watch the show. After watching the performance in an hour, you will come out to take pictures immediately. The brightest light on Yingtianmen is only a while."

    Highlights: Yingtianmen is the south gate of Luoyang City Palace City in Sui and Tang Dynasties. It was built in the first year of Daye in Sui Dynasty, that is, in AD 605. It has gone through four periods of Sui, Tang, Five Dynasties and Northern Song Dynasty successively. The Jinbing was burnt and used for 523 years. Yingtianmen was an important place for holding major state celebrations and diplomatic activities at that time. If Yuanzheng, Winter Solstice, Chenle, banquets, pardoning sins, removing the old and clothing the new, when the tributary messengers of all countries, the guests of the four barbarians and other important celebrations, the emperors all came to listen to the government. Similar to the current Beijing Meridian Gate. This city gate has witnessed the prosperity of the dynasty when Emperor Yang Guang of Sui Dynasty entered the Eastern Capital, Emperor Gaozong of Tang Dynasty released King Fuyu of Baekje, the queen ascended the throne and became emperor, and Emperor Xuanzong of Tang received the eighth envoy from Japan to the Tang Dynasty. Every Shangyuan Festival, Yingtianmen Square will also hold a grand Baixi performance. When it is grand, the performance team will stretch from here to the main south gate of Guocheng, which is 4 kilometers away. Yingtianmen has different names in different periods: it was built in the early Sui Dynasty, according to the "Analects of Confucius", "Only the sky is the greatest, only Yao is the rule", taking the meaning of "taking the sky as the rule", so it is called "Zetianmen"; the first year of Tang Shenlong 705 During the reign of Emperor Zhongzong Li Xian of Tang Dynasty, after avoiding Wu, he was honored as "The Great Sage Emperor Zetian" and renamed Yingtianmen. During the Kaiyuan period of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, this building was renamed Wufeng Building, and Wufeng Building was used until the Five Dynasties and Northern Song Dynasty. At the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Jinbing invaded the Central Plains, Luoyang became a battlefield and was severely damaged. Jinbing burned down the building. The city of Luoyang in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, which was prosperous for more than 530 years, gradually faded out of people's sight. Yingtianmen is one of the buildings that can show identity and status in the Chinese etiquette system. "Yuan·Henan Chronicle" records: the main gate of the palace city is called Zetianmen, the gate has two views, the upper one is called Ziwei microscopic, the left and right are connected with the ques, and the ques are 120 feet high. Calculated at 29.4 centimeters per foot in the Tang Dynasty, equivalent to about 36 meters today, this magnificent tower is almost twelve or three stories high today. The Tang Dynasty poet Bai Juyi once looked south on Yingtianmen and wrote a poem: "Longmen Cui Dai Mei is opposite, Yishui Golden Line is a line". From Yingtianmen, you can see Longmen Yique, which is 15 kilometers away, showing the majesty of Yingtianmen.

    "Jiuzhou Pool is an important royal pool garden in Luoyang City, Palace City, and Ziwei City in Sui and Tang Dynasty. It gathers the essence of Tang and Song garden architecture and is an outstanding example of ancient royal gardens in China. Founded in Shanghai, Tang and Song Dynasty, it is named after Jiuzhou in the East China Sea. The embankment is buckled, there are several islands in the pool, birds and fish swim, and flowers are planted. The pool water radiates to the purple micro city, and the water network in the park is densely covered with palaces and pavilions. Jiuzhou pool witnessed the interaction between the empire and the West during the Tang Dynasty. During the Tang Xuanzong Tianbao years, Dawan in the Western Region paid tribute to six sweaty BMWs, and Li Longji Ming Palace painter painted his image on the Jiuzhou Chi Yuguang Palace. Jiuzhou Chi "Guangshui No Mountain", Pingdi Building Garden; more than ten islands. As the Ziwei City Royal Garden, it is mainly for the emperor, concubines, princesses, princes and other residences and banquets. Raiders transportation: Located in Luoyang City, convenient transportation, convenient food and accommodation. View: Near Paradise, Mingtang, Yingtianmen are within walking distance. All three are Luoyang Palace Building Hanfu Photography Base. They are still being further expanded and will be more ambitious in the future. Ticket price: Maiden 9-17:30 yuan, night performance 19-21:30:68 yuan. The province's military preferential treatment certificate matinee is free, and the night is 38 yuan. Time: 1-3 hours."

    Highlights: Jiuzhouchi Ruins Park covers an area of 288 mu, including three parts: the Daineidian area in the northwest of Miyagi, the part of Taoguang Garden in the north of Miyagi, and the Jiuzhouchi Royal Garden in the west of Miyagi in the middle and north of the city. There are 12 ruins in total. A variety of scientific means for protective display. We hope that through means and forms such as the original site display of ancient ruins and ground simulation, more people can learn about the style and appearance of the imperial gardens in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. As the Imperial Palace of Luoyang City in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Jiuzhou Pool actually existed in history. According to the records of "Tang Liang Jingchengfang Kao", "Jiuzhou Pool, its pool is curved, and there are several islands in the pool, like Jiuzhou in the East China Sea, with an area of ten hectares, water depth of more than ten feet, birds and fish swimming, and flowers planting." In 1960, archaeologists discovered it while excavating Luoyang City in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. The Gongcheng District of Luoyang City in the Sui and Tang Dynasties was composed of the central core area and many small cities around it. Jiuzhou Pool is located in the north-central part of Xige City on the west side of Miyagi Ouchi, accounting for about two-fifths of Xige City. The scope of "ten hectares of residence" in the records is based on the land-duty system of the Tang Dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty, one foot was about 29.5 centimeters, and ten hectares was about 520,000 square meters, which was larger than the entire Xige City. However, the actual archaeological measurement of the water area of Jiuzhou Pool is about 139,250 square meters. Chinese classical garden art occupies a pivotal position in Chinese traditional architecture. The forms of Chinese landscape gardens, represented by literati gardens and royal gardens, are all aimed at pursuing the spiritual realm of nature, so as to achieve the aesthetic pursuit of "although made by man, it is like nature", and embody the cultural concept of "the unity of man and nature". This is completely consistent with the overall architectural concept of Luoyang City in the Sui and Tang Dynasties. As a royal garden, Jiuzhou Pool not only embodies the combination of nature and humanities, but also the concept of harmony and unity between man and nature, as well as the "ritual system" in traditional Chinese culture.

    "There is also a performance in Mingtang. The Raiders were not done well, and there were a lot of people on the spot, and I found that there was a performance. Anyway, I went early and occupied a front row. It is also worth returning some fares. The interior is magnificent, much better than heaven. Paradise only has the top to see. The rest of the floors are selling goods and goods, which is not too interesting. Yingtianmen is spectacular, and the earliest ruins can be seen from the interior, which is really good."
