After seeing the actual prosperous sites of Kaifeng, as the last stop, we look back at the beauty of newly built structures like the Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden. In fact, the garden depicts the bustling scene of the entire southeastern suburbs of the city. One can imagine if that area was so prosperous, the city center must have been even more lively. Therefore, even in this newly constructed Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden, much is left to our own rich imagination or to be supplemented by other media materials. Regrettably, even in such a garden, we still cannot perfectly showcase the grandeur of the past. On this trip, because my schedule was very tight, I actually bought a daytime ticket, but I only stayed in the park for probably less than two hours before I had to leave, as I had to catch a train to Zhengzhou.

Here, there are 10,000 Song Dynasty costumes waiting for you to take photos for free! ❗️ Located in Kaifeng, Henan, Qingming Riverside Park Everyone is familiar with the 'Along the River During the Qingming Festival' painting, right? 'Eastern Capital is truly mesmerizing, a sight that captivates the eyes'—have you heard of it? It's in the ancient capital, Kaifeng, Henan, where the original scene of the 'Along the River During the Qingming Festival' painting is located. You must catch this Qingming event. Welcome everyone to Kaifeng, Henan, to deeply experience 'A Day in the Song Dynasty'! Zhang Zeduan's painting is of this very place. I think this is definitely a must-visit spot in Henan. Many ladies will surely want to experience a day in Song Dynasty attire. There are many shops inside where you can choose to wear Song Dynasty clothes—there are especially a lot. There are many performances inside the park. I recommend!! 🔥 Iron Flower performance, a non-heritage cultural tradition, truly stunning. 🌃 The live performance of 'The Dream of the Great Song Dynasty · Eastern Capital' is super worth it. From the beginning to the end of the Song Dynasty, it's depicted in 70 minutes. Step into the painting for a day, dream back a thousand years. My words are no match for your own personal experience. The schedule of shows varies daily, but overall, it's really great. The experience is very strong!

Before the Spring Festival, I set off from Beijing to drive to Yibin, Sichuan to celebrate the New Year, mainly taking a leisurely tour along the way. The first stop from Beijing was Kaifeng, where I stayed for one night. Arriving in Kaifeng in the evening, after eating a lot of delicious food such as soup dumplings and carp roasted noodles, we went to the Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden for a night tour. The night scene of the garden starts after 5:30 pm, with tickets costing 100 yuan per person, and discounted tickets for the elderly and students at 60 yuan. If you like performances, you can also choose to buy tickets for the Tokyo Dream Huayu performance, which is currently discounted to 149 yuan, so you don't need to buy separate admission tickets. We didn't go to the performance because some of us were afraid of the cold, so we just strolled around the garden. The Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden at night is truly dazzling. Upon entering the garden, the first thing you see is the statue of Zhang Zeduan, the author of the 'Along the River During the Qingming Festival'. Accompanied by the pleasant music in the garden, a brilliant 'Along the River During the Qingming Festival' is presented to us in the gorgeous light and shadow. Especially the banks of the Bian River, the colorful lights reflected on the water surface are dreamlike. You can also take a quaint boat ride on the Bian River to enjoy the lights at night, of course, you need to buy a separate ticket~ If you're hungry, there's a food street in the garden with a wide variety of food. The prices are slightly higher than in the city, but they are acceptable for a scenic spot. Don't miss the panorama cinema in picture 10, which features a film flying over the Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden. Experience the entire Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden from the perspective of a bird. The children in the field were all excited. The film lasts 8 minutes and is shown every half hour. It is said that the end time is determined by the flow of visitors on the day. The key point is that this film does not require an additional fee, remember to go and see~ The New Year is coming, and many dragon year lanterns have been added to the garden, which is quite festive. If you pass through Kaifeng like me, you can go for a walk in the Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden at night. I am Yi Lan, a photographer who loves to travel. Come explore fun and beautiful new ❤️ places with me~

In China, if there is one ancient painting that is known to every household, it would be 'Along the River During the Qingming Festival'. This painting can be said to be etched into the spiritual DNA of the Chinese people. Zhang Zeduan's scroll depicts the Northern Song Dynasty's capital Bianjing, in all its bustling and lively glory. At that time, the Bian River, a hub of transportation between the north and south, ran through the entire scroll. Carriages shuttled back and forth on the Rainbow Bridge, boats passed underneath, shops lined the city in close succession, and the streets were packed with pedestrians... How can one not yearn for the vibrant market atmosphere captured in the painting?😌 If I could describe Qingming Riverside Park in one sentence, I would say that this park is truly a one-to-one restoration of the 'Along the River During the Qingming Festival', offering an immersive experience into the painting. Stepping into it is like traveling back to the prosperous Bianjing depicted in the painting. In addition to recreating the rivers, bridges, buildings, and markets from the Qingming scroll, what's more attractive is that the park is filled with countless NPCs with Song Dynasty identities, who bring to life real street scenes and stories, filling every moment of your visit... 📝Tips ① Wear comfortable shoes! The park is really big, and if you want to see as many performances as possible, you need to plan and walk a lot. ② When entering the park, get a 'Tour Guide Secret Manual', which has detailed performance times and locations. ③ There are too many performances to see in one day, it is recommended to stay overnight in the park to enjoy a more leisurely and fun experience

Kaifeng Qingming Riverside Park. Meteors fall upon them, bursting into fireworks at the Kaifeng Qingming Riverside Park. I managed to catch the last performance of the iron flower fireworks before the event ended, and looking back at the photos, I realized that the clusters of sparks resembled meteors from a comic book. The park set up a program with a boat sailing through a sky full of fireworks, with a couple and a boatman standing at the bow and stern, respectively. The backdrop of ancient city walls and red lanterns complemented each other, momentarily transporting us back to the era when thousands of trees were adorned with flowers on a breezy night.

Bathed in the ancient atmosphere of Kaifeng by day, it feels as if time has reversed, and overnight, one travels to the bustling alleys of Dongjing. This wonderful feeling of traversing time and space is simply intoxicating! 🌇 900 years ago, Kaifeng was one of the most prosperous cities in the world, just like the legendary 'Bianjing's unrivaled splendor'. 🏙️ And the Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden magically recreates the Song Dynasty's lively marketplace, as if it is the living continuation of Zhang Zeduan's famous painting 'Along the River During the Qingming Festival'. Everything here makes one exclaim at the richness and enchanting beauty of Dongjing! ✨🖼️

The park is super large, divided into the South Garden and North Garden. The North Garden is more about forests and amusement, with more green plants and entertainment facilities, including a horse field, pirate ship, rockery slides, and a cute pet park, etc. The South Garden has a stronger ancient historical atmosphere, with museums, city towers, and more. There are rickshaws in the park, and when we asked about the price, it was 200 yuan for 35 minutes (including explanation), and the position can seat up to two adults holding a child. It feels very ordinary during the day, but it looks beautiful and is very suitable for taking pictures at night, especially when looking from the city tower above the museum, it's really stunning. We arrived at 3 pm, and most of the costumes in the ancient costume shops were rented out, and the styles that were not rented out were not very attractive. If you want to take photos in ancient costumes, it is recommended to go earlier to choose the style you like. The park has a food street with a lot of options, including snail noodle, soup dumplings, braised noodles, and so on. We ate braised noodles at "Wang Po Tavern", the view by the window was super nice, and there was a small terrace for taking photos. The special soup dumplings with chrysanthemum pork filling had a taste without any other strange flavors, quite innovative, and the braised noodles also tasted good and the portion was very large, it is recommended for two girls to share a bowl. The park has a performance called 'The Great Song Dynasty Dream of Tokyo', which is not included in the regular ticket. You can choose a package ticket that includes the performance when buying tickets. When we went, the tickets with the performance were already sold out, so we didn't get to see it. 🎫Ticket: Buy tickets on Ctrip 💰117/person, scan the code to enter (if you buy tickets together, you need to wait for everyone to arrive before entering together, you cannot enter separately) ⏰Visiting time: It is recommended to visit for 1 day (we were there from 3 pm to 9 pm, and 6 hours were not enough to fully explore the entire park) 🍢Food: Wang Po Tavern 👗Dress suggestion: Ancient costume (especially after the park lights up, it's super photogenic)

Last night, snowflakes were falling in Kaifeng, drifting with the wind. The night view of the ancient capital is dreamlike and covered in silver. Auspicious snow signifies a prosperous year! Shuixin 'The mountain is full of snow when I open the door in the morning, the snow is clear, the clouds are light, and the sunlight is cold.' Snowflakes are dancing in the sky, like a silver veil. The snowy version of 'Along the River During the Qingming Festival' is slowly unfolding, stunning and beautiful. Modern people and ancient people, shuttle in the scroll, it is unclear whether it is reality or the scroll, whether it is time going backwards or the years intersecting. Auspicious snow signifies a prosperous year! May all wishes come true! May the new year be safe and smooth, healthy and joyful. May the new year be a reunion for the whole family, full of happiness. It turns out that admiring the snow in the Northern Song Dynasty is so romantic, it turns out that my thoughts of you cross the scroll.
