Very historic place and can be the first Buddhist temple in china from the Han dynasty (AD68) and well worth a visit. Area was calm and not so many tourist! Visit also the quiet room for a tea.

First established in 68AD, it is considered as the first Buddhist temple in China. The main buildings are reconstructed during the Ming and Qing era, 1950s, and 1973. Adjacent to this temple are three international Buddhist temples: the Siamese, Burmese and Indian Buddhist temples. The three latter temples are built from private Thai-related group’s donation, the Burmese government, and the Indian government.

The old Chinese Buddhist temple is nice, but the other temples (Thai, Indian, Burmese) are recent constructions and they look cheaply built, with rather bare interiors. Overall feels a bit rushed a tacky. I don't think it's worth the detour when visiting Luoyang, especially since it takes a while to reach by taxi or public bus. Personally I would recommend skipping.

Said to be the first Buddhist temple in China, this temple have about 20-30km away from luoyang city is worth a visit. On the way out you will pass by many temple from various county such as Thailand, Myanmar, and India.

It is considered the first Buddhist temple in China, established in 68AD by the Han dynasty. Area was calm surrounded by beautiful gardens

First temple in China, built in 68 A.C.. It has a lot of histories behind it. I would suggest to bring a tour guide to know what you are really looking at. The incense is free of charge, light 1 or 3 (not 2, not 4!) incenses and make a wish. There are also Hindu, Myanmar, and Thai temples and towers built in this temple. Don’t miss these.

The first Buddhist temple in China

You will not see the images of monks practicing martial arts as you expect. Now Shaolin Temple is just a temple. This area is quite large so if you do not have time, you can buy a tram ticket to go quickly. At some times of the day, outside the gate, there are martial arts students performing. Need to buy ticket

Visiting the Shaolin Temple in Zhengzhou was an incredible experience. The place has such a powerful energy — you can actually feel the history and tradition in the air. The temple itself is stunning, surrounded by beautiful mountains and greenery that make the whole area feel calm and refreshing. The climate was just perfect when I visited, adding to the peaceful vibe. Every corner of the temple has something to admire — from the ancient statues and carvings to the monks practicing kung fu with absolute discipline and grace. Watching them train was mesmerizing; it’s not just a performance, it’s a way of life deeply rooted in their culture. It’s truly amazing how the temple combines spirituality, martial arts, and history all in one place. I’d definitely recommend visiting if you ever get the chance — it’s a place that leaves you inspired and full of awe.

Too much crowed, too much commercial..we were dreaming to see real quite place where the guys are living and training, to feel the history and old golden traditions, but found only a lot of shops, street food restaurants and show - all just for tourists,that’s why we were really disappointed ☹️ price for the tickets are so expensive for that. Honestly it’s a tourist trap, don’t recommend unfortunately

By far the highlight of our China tour. It's amazing to hear the history of the Shaolin temple, see a demonstration, but most of all, travel up the cable car up the mountain to see the Temple of Heaven and walk along a towering cliff face.

Well worth a visit. Steeped in history. Worth hiring an English speaking guide. Approximately 300RMB. To get here hire a Didi for around 150RMB, and slightly more getting back. Buy tickets when you get there 80 RMB. Includes kung fu show.

My wife had the opportunity to visit the fabled temple, located at the foot of Mount Song birthed about 495 a.d. and home of Chan ("zen") buddhism and ethical martial arts ("wu de"), courtesy of Bodhidharma. She tells me it's quite commercial now given publicity and Unesco cultural status in recent times.

A must-visit if you're in Zhengzhou! The long travel time is worth it—this legendary temple, famous from Jackie Chan and Jet Li movies, was even more impressive in real life. As a fan since childhood, seeing it firsthand was unforgettable. We booked a private tour, which included a Kung Fu lesson and an incredible live performance. The martial arts showcase was the highlight—so powerful and precise! Highly recommend this experience for anyone interested in Chinese culture or Kung Fu. Truly a dream come true for martial arts lovers! **5/5 stars**—don’t miss it!

A mountain with a great history and spiritual aspect

(Translated by Google) The sight of the strata standing vertically, like wafers, is impressive. However, even if you take the cable car up, there are stairs that appear from time to time.

(Translated by Google) ●"The Hometown of the Yellow Emperor" is located on Xuanyuan Road in the urban area of ​​[Xinzheng]. It is a holy place at home and abroad for "descendants of the Yan and Huang Dynasties to seek their roots and worship their ancestors". It is also a place to worship the ancestor of Chinese humanities - the "Yellow Emperor". The "Hometown of the Yellow Emperor" was built in the Han and Wei dynasties and has been around for about two thousand years. Its predecessor was the "Xuanyuan Hometown Temple". In the fourth year of Longqing's reign in the Ming Dynasty (1570), Xuanyuan Bridge was built in front of the temple. In the fifty-fourth year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty (1715), Xu Chaozhu, then the governor of Xinzheng County, erected the "Xuanyuan Hometown Monument" in front of the temple. It was renovated in the 29th year of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty (1764). The "Stele of the Reconstruction of the Main Hall" records: "In ancient times, Zhengyi is said to be the old ruins of the Xuanyuan clan. There is the Xuanyuan Qiu ruins in the north, which was the original site at that time." In the early 1990s, the then government leaders of Xinzheng City organized reconstruction. In March 1997, the expansion of the "Hometown of the Yellow Emperor" started. Residential households in front of the temple were demolished, and the front area of ​​the Huangdi's Hometown and the Huangdi's Hometown Square were built, covering an area of ​​more than 5,000 square meters, and greening was carried out. From 2002 to 2003, the Xinzheng Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China and the Xinzheng Municipal People's Government expanded the Xuanyuan Hometown Ancestral Area and renamed it the "Yellow Emperor's Hometown Scenic Area". After the expansion, the area of ​​the scenic area reached 430,000 square meters. In order to meet the needs of holding the ancestor worship ceremony in the "Hometown of the Yellow Emperor", the scenic area was expanded again in 2007. From south to north, the expanded scenic area consists of "Chinese Surname Square", "Xuanyuan's Hometown Ancestral Area", "Xuanyuan's Hometown Ancestral Area", It consists of "Ancestor Worship Area", "Xuanyuan Hill" and "Yellow Emperor Memorial Hall Area". In August 2023, archaeologists discovered a "Chime Bell Sacrifice Pit" at the "Hometown of the Yellow Emperor" site. ●The "Hometown of the Yellow Emperor" scenic spot is divided into three major areas from north to south: "ancestor worship area, hometown temple area, and square area". Visitors can walk around after entering the scenic area. ●"Ancestor Worship Area" Visitors can visit the "Emperor Memorial Hall" and pay homage to the emperor's statue. ●There is an ancient jujube tree with a history of thousands of years in the "Hometown Temple Area". In the center of the main hall of the temple, a middle-aged statue of "Xuanyuan Huangdi" is enshrined. In the side halls on both sides, Leizu, the concubine of the Yuan Dynasty, and Aimu, the fourth concubine of the Yellow Emperor, are enshrined. picture. ●In the "Chinese Surname Square" in "Square Area", you can check the origin of your surname and find the origin and tradition of your family. There is also a Chinese surname wall with more than 3,000 surnames carved on the wall. Every year on the third day of the third month of the lunar calendar, a grand ancestor worship ceremony is held, and the scene is very grand.

(Translated by Google) The collection is meager and the exhibition level is crude and crude, inferior even to some museums in prefecture-level cities. This is a concentrated and embarrassing display.

It is free to visit but closed every Monday. There is a high rise building which is too close to it and blocks the view. The close by area are good for shopping. Once the signature building of Zhengzhou but now it’s not so.

It‘s free to visit but you need to show your ID. I thought there‘s a viewpoint on the top floor but it was closed. Only exhibition and stores inside.

Photo opportunity.

Great citi!

Forty years ago, this was the tallest building in the entire city.

This place brings back so many memories 😃

A place to visit to understand the history of China, mainly art pieces. Encouraged to purchase tickets in advance, and remember to bring ID (for local) and passport (for foreigners). I believe you need whole day to view all art pieces, and we only managed to view the key ones within 2.5 hrs.

Excellent museum with loads of artifacts and information on history of Henan which is also very much history of China from its beginning. Information is available also in English. Tickets are free but must be reserved on website. Bring your passport. Reserve several hours for a visit. Definitely worth your time.

This museum focuses on ancient dynasties from the central plain which gives information on early China civilization. Free entrance. Friendly museum staff is there to help for those using passport for registration. Those who likes history will take more than 3 hours.

Epic museum. Reserve a ticket via WeChat (select from 9-12pm or 12-4pm entry time slots; max 8,000 visitors per session). Both english and Chinese audio guides are available for ¥30 but are operated by different companies, so be careful which one you purchase. The Chinese guide is quite comprehensive (you can punch in the ###) but the english guide is lame (~40 1-2min explanations that are heavily accented).

Very good museum especially for China history buffs. Entrance is free but advance booking/ reservation is required from their WeChat account.

Amazing museum in Zhengzhou, Henan. There was way more pieces than I imagined there would be, spanning thousands of years across multiple dynastic periods. I highly recommend a visit here if you come to Henan!

A lot of historical relics & rare collections. Reflecting on thousand years of chinese dynasties.

Wow has this place been let go or what. Lucky to have half the rides going. The place looked derelict probably time to bulldoze the place and build something else. The pictures say it all.

This park is almost abandoned since the new FangTe park launched.

Big place with few equipment

Awesome park with many amazing sites. Raining, wet & cold though..but many interesting activities & get to wear chinese traditional costumes, dynasty. 💛

One of the best ancient theme park. Very well managed with periodic shows thru out the park. Even the shop retailers were all dressed in ancient clothing

Great experience of historic Chinese culture and local traditions. Awesome shows and gift shops. They also have a food court that has great noodles. They also have employees walking around with traditional street food items. Horse show. Naval war performance. Dress up in traditional wear. Whip performance. Dances. Chicken fights. Ample underground parking. It was quite hot and there is a lot of walking. Wear comfortable shoes and clothes. Bring some food and snacks.

the shows give kids direct impression of people daily life in Song dynasty. the park at night is pretty impressive, ang it is cool to visit too, I mean the temperature itself in a summer day. :-)

It's a park that built based on classical Chinese painting "Qingming Shang He Tu" or in english "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" which captures the daily life of people and the landscape of the northern song dynasty capital city, bianjiang (now:kaifeng). The buildings, bridges, city walls and docks in the park are made exactly the same as in the painting. You can find that the workers and staff there are also wear clothes and accessories like they're one of the song dynasty's people. If you want to dress like them, the park also have some stall that rent out dresses and clothes for man, woman and kids. They also offer photo service if you wanted to take some picture wearing that clothes. The park also provides many interesting shows that can be watched for free, such as a story about one of the famous hero in Chinese history, Yue Fei. If you want to watch the show, please pay attention to the show schedule and don't be late, because they will close the gate when the performance starts. Overall, this park is very interesting and worth to go. But unfortunately, when I went there, it was a foggy day..so I couldn't enjoy the park to the fullest.

Good cultural site full enriched with ancient heritage and good scenic spot for tourist ticket cost 120 RMB and will be half if you have student card

Great Park, where you can see the sculpture of famous Chinese painting Qingmingjie which is 24.5 meters long and depicts the ancient lifestyle of Chinese citizens during Holiday

One of the few actual ancient buildings in Kaifeng. Quite a large park with many green trails, beautiful lakes, and a magnificent palace originally built 500 yrs ago. Good place to take a walk

Both the lake and the buildings are not as interesting as I thought

This is another artificial area built recently. Many of the buildings are not original and built for tourists. The only thing real from the old buildings are the two lions located at the front of entrance.

(Translated by Google) The most popular place for Kaifeng citizens to come here for entertainment is Longting Square, where they fly kites and play tops.

Must come

Relaxing park in Kaifeng, not heavily visited. Iron Pagoda is a must see

An ancient tower which is almost 1000 years old

Must visit place in kaifeng , beautiful

One of the most under rated place in Kaifeng. I was astonished that this park is rated below the recent man made Yuchen 御城and qingming shang he tu 清明上河图 which were built within 20 years ago。The pagoda was built about 1000 years ago for the purpose of housing Budda bone ( 舍利）. The pagoda has 8 faces (probably means see all the directions or 八卦？）and 13 levels（probably also meaning something) and each tile of it contains drawings of Budda. The park has fewer visitors and fare is 40 CNY. Along with the lake and some sculpture (no sign and I don't have time to dig out what they are about), this place is definitely top 3 in Kaifeng.

common park in china

Marvelous, historical structure, a monument as old as time itself (1000-year-old). No one can outlive this structure.. The park is also well preserved with colourful flowers & plants.

(Translated by Google) It was a place that was more disappointing than expected. I was looking forward to it after seeing it in a drama. The alley had a good feel, but I thought there might be an accident due to crowds of people at the photo spot. Taking pictures is useful, but I also want you to consider the flow of people. (Original) 기대보다 아쉬웠던 곳 드라마에서 보고 기대하며 찾은 곳이었는데 골목길 감성은 괜찮았으나 포토스팟에 사람이 몰려 사고 날 수도 있겠다 싶었습니다 사진을 남기는 것도 즁요하지만 사람들 이동 흐름도 생각해줬으면 합니다

Temple has a Buddhist ritual at 4pm every day. I would also advise to climb the stairs all the way up to the old Buddha statue on the mountain (over thousand years old). It offers nice views over the area around if the weather is good.

Beautiful statues and art and gardens.

not good

(Translated by Google) If you drop by, come in and take a look. Like many temples in China, the donation ranking monuments everywhere are very "distinctive"! The most impressive thing is the apricot tree in front of the main hall! (Original) 要是顺路就进来看看，和国内很多寺庙一样，到处的捐赠排名碑，很有“特色”！给人印象深刻的是大殿前的杏树！

(Translated by Google) It was rebuilt in the fifth year of Chunhua, Emperor Taizong of the Northern Song Dynasty (994), and completed in the second year of Jiayou, Renzong (1057), with a height of 55.7 meters and a nine-story brick tower. The lower three floors have double eaves, and the upper six floors have single eaves. There is a relief sculpture of the "Underworld" torture scene at the base of the tower, and there is an iron brake on the crown of the tower. Lingyan Temple is located in Wande Town, Changqing District, Jinan, Shandong Province, China, northwest of Mount Tai. It was first built in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and rebuilt in the first year of Zhengxing (AD 520) of Emperor Xiaoming of the Northern Wei Dynasty. It reached its peak in the Tang Dynasty and was closely related to Zhejiang Province. Guoqing Temple in Tiantai, Yuquan Temple in Jiangling, Hubei Province, and Qixia Temple in Nanjing are collectively known as the "Four Famous Temples" in the world.

Beautiful and tranquil place. Was only there for 30 mins but it was an enjoyable and relaxing. Very old and well maintained with a deep history

Nice place. Tidy and peace, you don’t wanna miss this place!

A very old historical temple constructed during the Qin and Han dynasty.

Ok

Good !

(Translated by Google) Located at the southern foot of Mount Tai in Tai'an City, Shandong Province, it is also known as the Dongyue Temple. It has a history of more than 2,000 years. It was a place where emperors of all dynasties held Zen ceremonies and worshiped the God of Mount Tai. Dai Temple was built in the Qin and Han Dynasties and has a complete complex of ancient buildings. It is also the highest-standard among temple buildings. Together with the Forbidden City in Beijing, the Three Kongs in Qufu in Shandong, and the Summer Resort in Chengde, it is also known as the four major ancient building complexes in China. There are more than 300 steles and stone carvings from past dynasties in Dai Temple, so it is known as the "Dai Temple Forest of Steles" and is one of the best places to appreciate calligraphy. The trees in Dai Temple are green and towering, and the environment is very beautiful and peaceful. Some precious ancient trees, such as "Han Cypress" and "Tang Huai", which have experienced thousands of years of vicissitudes, are the most ancient and valuable trees in Dai Temple. (Original) 位於山東省泰安市泰山南麓，也稱東嶽廟，已有2000多年的歷史，是歷代帝王舉行封禪大典和祭拜泰山神的地方。岱廟始建於秦漢，有著完整的古建築群，也是寺廟建築中規格最高的，與北京故宮、山東曲阜三孔、承德避暑山莊，並稱中國四大古建築群。 岱廟內存有300餘歷代碑碣石刻，故有「岱廟碑林」之稱，是欣賞書法的勝地知一。 岱廟內樹木蒼翠、大樹參天，環境十分優美寧靜。有些珍貴的古樹，歷經千年風雨滄桑的「漢柏」、「唐槐」，為岱廟古樹名木之最。

Great walk up 7000 steps. It got busy at the top, with lots of people huffing and puffing up the steep bit. Well worth a visit. Weekends and good days make it get very busy. So be grateful at the top when it gets steep and you too are huffing and puffing, whilst trying to impress your partner with your stamina, strength and fitness🤣

During my recent trip to China, I had the opportunity to visit Taishan Mountain, one of the tallest and most significant mountains in the country. The journey to the top was both challenging and exhilarating. I started my ascent in the early hours of the morning, determined to reach the summit in time to witness the sunrise. The climb was steep and demanding, but the anticipation of the view kept me going. As I reached the peak, I was greeted with the most breathtaking view I have ever seen. The sun slowly rose over the horizon, casting a golden glow over the landscape. The sky was painted with vibrant hues of orange and pink, and the entire scene felt almost surreal. It was a moment of pure tranquility and awe. In addition to the stunning sunrise, Taishan Mountain is rich in cultural and historical significance. The pathways are lined with ancient inscriptions and temples, each telling a story of the mountain's past. I took my time exploring these sites, immersing myself in the history and spirituality of the place. Overall, my visit to Taishan Mountain was an unforgettable experience. The combination of natural beauty, physical challenge, and cultural richness made it a truly unique adventure. I highly recommend anyone traveling to China to include Taishan Mountain in their itinerary. Witnessing the sunrise from the summit is a memory that will stay with you forever.

A beautiful and challenging Taishan to hike either with your foot or a hybrid mode of using available cable cars/bus.

This breathtaking shot captures a panoramic view from Mount Tai (Tai Shan), one of China's Five Great Mountains and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The scene is steeped in cultural, spiritual, and natural beauty.

Mount Taishan is one of the five Sacred mountains in China. It is situated in Tai’an city, Shandong Province. It is worth to mention that this mount is in the UNESCO world heritage sites. This is one of the most climbed mountains. The legend says that all Kings of China have had climbed this mountain and prayed for the success to the God. The best time for climbing us Summer and spring. If you want to have a nice scenery, then avoid to climb the mount in winter and Autumn. During my first climbing I could see the mountain and the city all in fog which doesn’t happen often as the locals say and only the luckiest people can be witnesses of this beauty. Another best time to visit the mountain is any night in summer because in the morning you will find an amazing sunset view if the weather is nice and not rainy. You can climb by foot which will take about 4 hours if you take a bus to the starting point. You might also take a cable car to the top which is not operating at night. In case of climbing at night be ready to experience cold on the top. Prepare tent where you can sleep and have jackets with you.

one of my great experience for visiting China, and challenged myself from the flights of stairs to see the sun rising. When you are up there, remember to rent the coat and return back at the peak of the mountain, don't bring it down like me... it was HELL.

Great experience! The weather was very cold but it was great because walking up all those steps got me sweating! There were some temples at the top and lots of nice snacks to buy on the way up!
