Things to do in Lankao

This is considered a relatively nice scenic spot in Lankao. Located on the banks of the Yellow River, it's a good choice for those who haven't seen the Yellow River before. Furthermore, it's the last bend of the Yellow River's winding course, allowing you to experience the scenery of this final bend – that's its unique charm.

One person changed a city. The Jiao Yulu Memorial Park is free and you can see the clothes and tools he used to wear. It feels great. He is a person who deserves respect.

Wonderful theme park with lots of activities and performances

It's very worthwhile, but it's also very crowded, which might slightly detract from the overall experience. However, the people are incredibly welcoming, and there are many beautiful spots for taking photos. The food is also affordable and inexpensive, which kids enjoy. I'll definitely go back when it's less crowded.

Wansui Mountain was so much fun! The experience was fantastic, with so many activities, big and small, that we didn't want to leave. You definitely need three days to see everything. We brought a 4-year-old, and it was a great experience. All the NPCs were incredibly friendly, smiling and greeting you proactively. My child shook hands with many people and was very happy. In three days, we basically tried all the popular attractions. The "Three Attacks on Zhu Family Village" and "Iron Flower" attractions require reservations, while other popular attractions don't, but you still need to arrive half an hour early to find a good spot, otherwise you might end up in the back and not see anything. If you're traveling in an E-group, the experience will be even better; you can play mini-games with NPCs and win silver coins – it's definitely worth the trip! There's also a play area suitable for children. The zoo also features traditional opera and lion dance performances suitable for seniors. It's well-equipped with restrooms and a mother-and-baby room. The food is also very affordable; I tried the rice noodles and Chongqing noodles, which were delicious and inexpensive. Various grilled sausages, pancakes, and kebabs are also inexpensive, similar to prices outside, which is great. In other tourist areas, a meal would cost tens of yuan and wouldn't be very good. Accommodation is also inexpensive; our guesthouse for three days and two nights only cost a little over 200 yuan. If you're worried about that, you can stay in a hotel; they're all inexpensive, clean, and have good service and friendly staff. It's best to do some research beforehand, but it's not essential—there are many shows, and you'll likely catch something even if you just wander around. It's even more lively at night. Anyway, I think it's excellent value for money for three days for 100 yuan. Highly recommended!

YYDS is a less-visited attraction with good sightseeing potential. While it can't compare to Qingming Festival or Wansui Mountain, it's still a good place to spend half a day strolling and eating. It would be even better if more performances were added. The best time to visit is from 4 pm to evening for a night tour, where you can climb Qingxin Tower for a panoramic view of the entire scenic area! Come to Kaifeng and visit Kaifeng Prefecture! 🫶

The banks of the Bian River are brightly lit at night, which is very beautiful. There are also many performances along the way. After dinner, you can take a boat to enjoy the scenery, which is perfect. It costs 50 yuan per person, which is not bad. After boarding the boat, you can stroll around the Xisi Night Market and have a late-night snack.

It's not very big inside. I thought the weather would be cooler in early September, but it was still very hot. I sat and strolled around, and finished exploring in a morning. The scenery was nice, and it was quiet.
