In the Five Dynasties, eight dynasties, including Hou Liang, Houjin, Houhan, Houzhou, Northern Song Dynasty and Jin Dynasty, successively established their capitals in Kaifeng, so they were called "the old capital of the eight dynasties".
Kaifeng, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty, enjoys a high reputation in the world. It is located on the north bank of Baogong East Lake in Kaifeng, with great momentum.
Baolong's reputation of strengthening the body to ward off evil spirits and being upright and upright has been passed down through the ages.
The magnificent landscape of pavilions and clear water
Not far from Kaifeng, we came to Yanqing Temple, a very luxurious Taoist temple, a famous cultural relic tourist attraction and scenic spot in Yuan Dynasty. It, together with Baiyun Temple in Beijing and Changdao Temple in Sichuan, is called the three famous temples in China and the first Taoist temple in the Central Plains.
Yanqing Temple, formerly known as Chongyang Temple and Wanshou Palace, was renamed Yanqing Temple in the Ming Dynasty, and its name is still in use today.
Yanqing Guan walked to the gate of Longting Park ... It was getting late, so everyone decided to take the human tricycles.
(10 yuan/person, 2 people in a car) It feels good to be around the lake …
Pedal and explanation ... The entrance of the park is said to be the place where Liangshan heroes recruited soldiers in those days ... These 108 stone piers are engraved with 108 Liangshan heroes.
The pavilion opposite is where Li Shishi stayed.
Long Ting, a magnificent hall, is spectacular from a distance.
There is no bridge at the main entrance of Tian Bo Building ... The Yang family took the money from the emperor to buy weapons.
This is the back door of Tian Bo Building.
It's getting dark by the lake,
Eating Kaifeng snacks at dinner … feels like a mediocre taste.
The next day, Tower Park.
Iron Tower-Built in the Northern Song Dynasty, it is known as "the first tower in the world".
The tower is 55.88 meters high and has octagonal 13 floors. The iron tower is not made of iron, so it is called because it is covered with brown glazed tiles and looks like iron.
Tickets to climb the tower ... the passage is narrow, the steps are steep, and the small window is well ventilated (I thought it was stuffy when I didn't come in, but I didn't! ),
There are two iron Buddha statues in the middle and on the top floor ... The others are glazed tiles.
After visiting the Tower Park, go back to the hotel for lunch, and then take a bus to the entrance station to Xinxiang. ...
Crossing the Yellow River ... This river is worthy of the name-it's really yellow. ...
