Kaifeng: In the history of China, Kaifeng was once called the Girder, the Capital of Song Dynasty, Tokyo, Bianjing and so on.
During the Warring States Period, Wei, Hou Liang, Hou Jin, Hou Han, Hou Zhou, Northern Song Dynasty and Jin Dynasty all established their capitals in Kaifeng, so they were called the "Old Capital of Seven Dynasties".
The most glorious period of Kaifeng was in the prosperous Northern Song Dynasty.

Xuchang: The famous Dewey.
At that time, Cao Cao held the emperor to make the princes say that Xuchang, which was welcomed by Emperor Xian of Han Dynasty, was called Xudu in history.

Cao Cao took this as the base to unify the whole north in turn.

I'm exhausted. I called myself.
If we say every city in Henan, it will cost tens of thousands of words.
I still pick up the shortest and most important words.
These are the typical cities I have chosen to represent the history and culture of the Central Plains.
I hope it will be useful to you and help you understand the history and culture of the Central Plains!
