Last day of a business trip in Zhengzhou, unexpectedly got three hours for a Citywalk

On the last afternoon of my business trip in Zhengzhou, the meeting finished early, leaving me with three extra hours of free time. I rescheduled my high-speed train to a later time, stuffed my laptop back into my suitcase, and decided to go out for a stroll. Having been to Zhengzhou many times, I usually just shuttle between the hotel and the client’s office. This time, I wanted to see what this city really looks like. · My view of “Zhengzhou” A city where old and new blend in everyday life An ancient capital with a 3,600-year-old city site unchanged A hub city that “buys globally, sells globally” · ☑️Tour route🗺️ Zhengzhou East Station ➠ Henan Museum ➠ Zhengzhou Shangdu Ruins Museum ➠ Erqi Memorial Tower ➠ West Square of Zhengzhou East Station · ☑️Transportation guide & food map Details🔎see image 4 · 📍Henan Museum 🚗Transportation: Take Metro Line 1 from Zhengzhou East Station to Wenyuan North Road Station, or taxi about 20 minutes 📮Listen to the “heartbeat” of history. Here are treasures like the Jiahu bone flute that witness Chinese civilization. I recommend focusing on the basic exhibition “Magnificent China: Choosing the Central Capital.” · 📍Zhengzhou Shangdu Ruins Museum (noon to afternoon) 🚗Transportation: Taxi from Henan Museum about 15 minutes 📮Touch the 3,600-year-old Shang Dynasty city walls. Through 3D restoration, you can intuitively feel the scale of “Bo City.” The museum combined with the city wall ruins park creates a strong ancient-modern contrast. · 📍West Square of Zhengzhou East Station 🚗Take Metro Line 1 from Erqi Square back to Zhengzhou East Station. 📮Witness the “internet-famous” light and shadow secret realm. The layered and progressive architectural structure at the station entrance looks futuristic and cinematic under the lights. · ☑️About accommodation🏨 Actually, I chose it because it’s close to East Station, within walking distance. But after staying here for a few days, I found it really understands business travelers. ✔️Breakfast🍳 no need to settle A wide variety😋 Besides Chinese and Western pastries and dishes, I also had local specialties like Henan stewed noodles and spicy soup with tofu pudding🍜. The highlight was the DIY sandwiches, which made breakfast more fun😆 ✔️Room🛏️ This time I chose the hotel’s flexible studio. The movable desk can be shifted freely, making work more comfortable💓. There’s also a sliding screen, so when traveling with colleagues, you can open it to create your own little private space🛋️ ✔️Oasis Lobby🏝️ The space design is warm and vibrant. The 24-hour self-service drink bar offers free coffee and various teas all day, which you can mix as you like. The internet and printing area is equipped with a printer and wireless phone charging, perfect for business work💻 ✔️Fitness area🏋️‍♀️ The gym and laundry area are adjacent, so you can work out while waiting for your laundry💪 · Business trips may always come to an end, but those soft city memories that grow in the gaps of your itinerary will follow you to your next journey. .
