What travelers say:
Go during the day. The lake view is good. It's too hot. Did not wait until the night. Look at the effect of turning on the lights. Overall satisfaction. It is recommended to ask a tour guide. Otherwise, just look at the scenery. It will feel almost meaningless. Lack of enough understanding.

Longmen Grottoes Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
One of the four major grottoes of China and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Longmen Grottoes are a trove of 1000 years of Buddhist art treasures. Bounded by the Yi River, the caverns are divided into two sections at East Hill and West Hill. The caverns at East Hill contain mostly Tang dynasty (618-907) works, while the caverns at West Hill were cut out during the Northern, Sui, and Tang dynasties and contain the carvings that are most representative of the site. The Buddha and bodhisattva sculptures that inhabit the caverns are carved into an endless variety of poses and expressions of mercy and kindness, while the caves themselves lend a stately and dignified atmosphere. The artistry of these sculptures is truly a priceless inheritance of Buddhist art.

Luoyang Longmen Grottoes | One-day tour guide must seeWe go out for a trip, always have to go to Longmen Grottoes, see the Lushena Buddha, blow the wind of Xiangshan Temple, feel the grandeur of the millennium grottoes! Some people say that watching the grottoes is very boring, and they don't want to go a second time after going once. I think that many things can only be understood but not expressed, and it is very interesting to feel the treasures of the millennium stone carving art with your heart. Bai Juyi also said: "The four suburbs of Luodu, the victory of mountains and rivers, Longmen is the first." We must always believe in the eyes of the ancients! The Longmen Grottoes scenic area is composed of four attractions: Xishan Grottoes, Dongshan Grottoes, Xiangshan Temple, and Baiyuan. The area is not small and there are many steps, which is quite tiring! 1⃣️Tickets🎫: Adults 90/person, half price for students, etc., you can search online for 99 yuan tickets, including Longmen Grottoes, Jiuzhou Pool, Yingtianmen, Paradise... 2⃣️ Transportation🚗: There are buses🚌 and taxis from the high-speed rail Longmen station, 10 yuan/person, taxi🚖 about 20. You can check the bus🚌 route by yourself if you start from the city, there are many, and you need to transfer to the bus from the subway🚇 line 2. 3⃣️There are two entrances: the Northwest Visitor Ticket Center and the Northeast Visitor Service Center. Choose the northwest gate to save time! 4⃣️Route: Xishan Grottoes➡️Cross Mingshui Bridge➡️Dongshan Grottoes➡️Xiangshan Temple➡️Baiyuan The Xishan Grottoes are the core of the scenic area, and the main grottoes are in Xishan, a spectacular group of grottoes. The scale of Dongshan Grottoes is not large, there are fewer grottoes, and those who are not interested can not visit, but you can take pictures of the grottoes group on the opposite bank from Dongshan, Lushena Buddha, etc. Walk from Xishan to Dongshan across the Mingshui Bridge, you can also take pictures of the landscape on the opposite bank without going up the mountain, there is a special viewing platform. Xiangshan Temple is on the top of Xiangshan, and you have to go up a steep step, which is not high. There is a villa where Chiang Kai-shek once lived. Personally, I think it can be filmed for photography, but there are not many landscapes. You can go if you have enough time! Baiyuan is the real tomb of Bai Juyi, there is a teahouse inside, if the weather is good, you can sit in the afternoon. Very comfortable! There is nothing else to see, you can ignore it if you are not interested! Next is the question that everyone cares about most, "Will the lights of the Longmen Grottoes be on? When will they be on" For the protection of cultural relics, the Longmen Grottoes have now stopped night tours, but the small Buddha niches use solar lights, so as long as the sun sets in the west (about 6 o'clock), the lights will still turn on automatically! The staff along the way all said that the lights would not be on. I suspect it was their unified rhetoric. Then around 6 o'clock, the staff of the battery car would keep shouting "Get off work, get off work, hurry up and take the car out of the park", in fact, there is no need to hurry, even without a battery car, it only takes 10 minutes to walk out of the scenic area from the Buddha Offering Platform. But what needs to be mentioned here is that the lights are all small Buddha niches. As for whether the Lushena Buddha niche will light up, it depends entirely on the Buddha's fate. Some bloggers say that it will light up around 7 o'clock. Anyway, when I went there, I waited until 7 o'clock and it didn't light up. People also left one after another, so I wish you good luck!TravelBeyondBorders48
The Longmen Grottoes!How can you not visit the millennium-old Longmen Grottoes when you come to Luoyang? Although many statues inside have been damaged by human or natural causes, it still doesn't change the fact that this is a miraculous masterpiece of the ages! The Longmen Grottoes are divided into the West and East Grottoes, which are along a single line, and you can't go back the same way. I entered from the west and exited from the east. The most famous statue, the Giant Buddha of Lushena, is in the West Grottoes, while the East Grottoes have the Xiangshan Temple and the Bai Juyi Mausoleum. However, I was there for the night view. I set off in the afternoon, and after visiting the West Grottoes, I went to the Li Buddha Platform to wait for the night view. The staff said the lights would be on at 6:30 PM, and many people were waiting there, even a huge army of drones. The scene was quite spectacular, and the night view of the Longmen Grottoes certainly did not disappoint. After watching, I left the scenic area via the Longmen Bridge. There are many buses back to the city area at the entrance of the scenic area. After returning to the city, I went to the Cross Street to eat and eat and eat!Lauren Fisher7

Strolling through the Longmen Grottoes at night is like traveling through a thousand-year-old golden realmThe renowned Longmen Grottoes are the foremost of the 'Four Great Grottoes of China,' and a visit to Luoyang would not be complete without seeing them, especially when the lights come on at night—you must go‼️ The Longmen Grottoes are stunningly beautiful to me, especially the moment when the lights are turned on at night. Thousands of Buddha's lights shine, piercing the soul, and whether one has faith or not, they will be healed in an instant. The Lushena Buddha has stood unyielding for thousands of years. With kind eyes and a gentle smile, he looks down upon all beings who come and go. And although I am just a passerby in haste, just quietly observing him seems to allow me to let go of my obsessions and gain a moment of peace and tranquility. 【Tips】 1⃣️It is recommended to enter through the northwest gate, which is closer to the scenic area, and follow the crowd without having to backtrack. 2⃣️Around the Qingming Festival, the lights are turned on at about 6:30 in the evening. If you want to see the night view, there is no need to go too early, about 2 hours in advance is sufficient. 3⃣️Be aware that there is a ticket checkpoint at the Manshui Bridge, and once you exit the checkpoint, you cannot return to the side of the Lushena Buddha.MARCUS GARRETT
Luoyang! —— Henan's 'Millennial Runner-up'City History Through Time Project Every province has a standout internet-famous city. Only Henan doesn't have one, while Shandong has Zibo, Shaanxi has Xi'an, Sichuan has Chengdu, Zhejiang has Hangzhou... If everyone in Henan were to choose an internet-famous city, it would undoubtedly be Luoyang! Luoyang has the strongest internet-famous city genes. From Henan Satellite TV's 'Tang Palace Night Banquet', 'Luo Shen Water Ode', 'Longmen Diamond' to the popular TV series 'The Wind Rises in Luoyang'... Luoyang has always been busy. Luoyang is Henan's 'Millennial Runner-up'. It has the most domineering name in the country, also known as 'China', and 'Divine Capital'. Looking across the entire internet, there is no second city with such a resounding name! Although Luoyang's GDP is less than half of the provincial capital Zhengzhou, in terms of fame, it can crush Zhengzhou. Luoyang is known as the 'Ancient Capital of Thirteen Dynasties'! It has been the capital for over 1500 years, with a total of 105 emperors having worked in Luoyang. It's truly a fighter jet among imperial cities! It's not an exaggeration to say that Chinese culture was born in Luoyang. Luoyang is a city chosen by heaven, born with a silver spoon in its mouth. 🌷 Luoyang has three unique treasures: water banquets, peonies, and grottoes. Luoyang's Longmen Grottoes are the pinnacle of Chinese grotto art, with the largest statue of Vairocana Buddha, which is said to have been modeled after Empress Wu Zetian. Wu Zetian even rewarded it, donating her own rouge money. Many friends only know that people in Guangdong love to make soup, but those who love soup even more are from Luoyang in the north. If you say, isn't it just 'Hulatang' (spicy soup)? Then, you're out of touch! The 'soup' we're talking about is the famous 'Luoyang Water Banquet', a grand dish from the Tang Dynasty, a royal identity, a prominent existence! The dishes served at the Luoyang Water Banquet are all soupy, totaling 24 courses! Among them, 'Peony Swallow Dish' is the top card. It is said to be Empress Wu Zetian's favorite. Because of the Luoyang Water Banquet, Luoyang people have their own unique term for eating. They call 'eating' 'drinking soup'. When the warm-hearted people of Luoyang ask you 'Have you had soup?', don't be surprised! It means 'Have you eaten?' How much do Luoyang people love soup? Every street and alley is filled with: tofu soup, meatball soup, beef soup, mutton soup, 'bu fan tang' (non-overturned soup), donkey meat soup... Luoyang is an important birthplace of the '24 Solar Terms'. Among the 'Four Great Inventions', papermaking, the compass, and printing were all invented in Luoyang. Luoyang also gave birth to a host of famous 'historical stories': 'Luoyang Paper is Expensive', 'Fish Leaping Over Dragon Gate', 'Contending for Central Plains', 'Too Happy to Think of Shu', 'Cheng Men Li Xue'... Great literary figures like Sima Guang and Ouyang Xiu were once citizens of Luoyang. In ancient times, Luoyang was a super city in terms of historical culture, as well as a heavyweight in the economy. During the Western Jin Dynasty, the famous story of Shi Chong and Wang Kai's wealth competition took place in Luoyang. Luoyang's spring and autumn prosperity occurred during the Sui and Tang dynasties. After Emperor Yang of Sui opened the Grand Canal, Luoyang became the center of the north-south canal, where goods from the north and south converged, making it the richest place in the world! Some say 'half of China's history was written by Luoyang.' Luoyang has too many labels: peony, Guanlin, Laojun Mountain, White Horse Temple...marceline_aurelia_silverwood3

Luoyang Travel | Longmen Grottoes, a must-see with your own eyes!The Longmen Grottoes are the most abundant and largest scale stone carving art in the world. Even after seeing it countless times on TV, witnessing it in person this time still left me deeply shocked! 😲 🐟 Leaping Carp at Longmen It is said that Longmen was carved out during Yu the Great's efforts to control the waters, and the legend of the carp leaping over the dragon's gate took place here. The grottoes began to be carved during the Northern Wei Dynasty under Emperor Xiaowen, flourished during the Tang Dynasty, and ended in the late Qing Dynasty, spanning over 1400 years. 🗞️ A 'Milestone' in Grotto Art The world's unique royal grottoes 👉🏻 The Lu She Na Buddha carved in the image of Empress Wu Zetian, the Guyang Cave excavated for Empress Dowager Feng by Emperor Xiaowen, the Binyang South Cave built by Li Tai for Empress Zhangsun, and so on. The scale is immense 👉🏻 There are currently 2,345 grotto niches and over 110,000 statues. A lot of color painting was used during construction, but most of it has faded now. 🪨 Scenic Area Tour The Longmen Grottoes mainly consist of the West Hill Grottoes, East Hill Grottoes, Xiangshan Temple, and Bai Garden. ✔️ Among them, the central spot is the Grand Lu She Na niche, which is not only the largest in scale at Longmen Grottoes but also the most exquisite group of cliff sculptures. The Lu She Na Buddha statue in Nara's Todai-ji is modeled after this one. ✔️ For photography enthusiasts, the lit-up grottoes at night are truly beautiful! Since the lights are solar-powered, they light up one by one, and if the weather is bad, some lights may not turn on. So the night view captured each day will be different～ 🪘 Touring Tips Many guides suggest entering the park at 4 PM, then after touring the grottoes, taking photos of the night view of the grottoes from the opposite bank of the river. But based on our actual visit, entering at this time doesn't leave time to visit Xiangshan Temple 🥹. So for those who want a thorough tour, consider entering the park a bit earlier. Be prepared to climb stone stairs, so wear sports shoes. Take sun protection and mosquito repellent in the summer. After enjoying the night view, you can take a sightseeing bus back to the exit, 1️⃣0️⃣/person.BRODIE MONTGOMERY1

There are so many stunning views in the Longmen Grottoes that give people infinite expectations! If you want to find the most beautiful landscape, why not go to the Longmen Grottoes and explore it! The Longmen Grottoes are located in Luoyang City, Henan Province, and are the world's largest treasure trove of stone carving art with the most statues. It has been rated by UNESCO as the 'peak of Chinese stone carving art', ranking first among all major grottoes in China. It is now a World Cultural Heritage site, a national key cultural relics protection unit, and a national 5A tourist attraction. The Longmen was excavated during the water control of Dayu, and the legend of the fish leaping over the dragon gate also happened here. Its grottoes began to be excavated during the reign of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, flourished in the Tang Dynasty, and ended in the late Qing Dynasty. After more than 10 dynasties, it has been built for more than 1400 years, making it one of the longest-built grottoes in the world. There are currently 2345 grottoes and niches, with more than 110,000 statues. A large amount of color painting was used during construction, most of which has faded. The statues of the Longmen Grottoes were mostly built by the royal nobles, making it the only royal grotto in the world. The main ones are the Lushena Buddha carved by Wu Zetian according to her own appearance, the Guyang Cave carved by Emperor Xiaowen for Empress Dowager Feng, the statue of the grandson of King Lanling in the Wanfo Cave, the Binyang South Cave built by Li Tai for Empress Changsun, the Jingshan Temple carved by Wei Guifei, and the Immeasurable Life Buddha built by Gao Lishi for Emperor Xuanzong of Tang. It also experienced foreigners from India, Silla, Tocharian, and Kangguo opening caves and making statues, and found European patterns, ancient Greek stone pillars, etc., which can be called the highest international level grotto in the world. The Longmen Grottoes have made the art of grottoes show a trend of sinicization, and are the 'milestone' of Chinese grotto art, which has had an important impact on the excavation of other domestic grottoes (such as the Big Buddha of Tiantan in Hong Kong)NeonOracle1
The Shock of a Millennium - The Longmen GrottoesThe pinnacle of Chinese stone carving art, dreaming back to the prosperous Tang Dynasty at the Longmen Grottoes|||In the fields around Luoyang, where the landscape is supreme, Longmen stands out. The Longmen Grottoes began to be carved during the reign of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, flourished in the Tang Dynasty, and ended in the late Qing Dynasty. They were constructed over more than 1400 years during successive dynasties including the Northern Wei, Eastern Wei, Western Wei, Northern Qi, Sui, Tang, Five Dynasties, Song, Ming, and Qing, with over 110,000 statues created. This article represents the representative caves of the Sui, Tang, and Five Dynasties, the niche of the Great Buddha Vairocana, which was the peak period of statue creation in the Longmen Grottoes. Among all the caves at Longmen, about 30% are from the Northern Wei Dynasty, 60% from the Tang Dynasty, and the remaining 10% from other dynasties. The main statue, Vairocana, means 'radiant light that shines everywhere.' Standing 17.14 meters tall, with a head 4 meters high and ears 1.9 meters long, it is famous for its mysterious smile and is known as the 'Eastern Mona Lisa' by foreign tourists. The face is full and round, with wavy hair on top, eyebrows curved like new moons, and a pair of beautiful eyes gently gazing downward, revealing a serene smile, wise and compassionate, inspiring respect without fear. On the day the niche of the Great Buddha Vairocana was completed, Empress Wu Zetian, who donated twenty thousand strings of cash for cosmetics, personally led civil and military officials to participate in the consecration ceremony of Vairocana and worshipped on the east bank of the Yi River with drumming and music. To this day, the drum platform still remains here. Centered around the generous and extraordinary Vairocana, a group of artistic figures with rich emotional texture vividly expresses an ideal realm filled with serene colors. This group of statues reflects the great material and spiritual power of the Tang Dynasty, showcasing the highest achievements of Tang Dynasty sculpture art.SARA WILLIAMS

Headless Buddhas at Longmen Grottoes#2023TravelWish #china #henanprovince Longmen Grottoes is somewhere my partner was reluctant to travel to. Having been born and raised in Henan, he had never been there and so was sceptical about the draw of these mountain carvings. I am now however glad to report that this was his favourite destination on our trip! Although the largest, most impressive Buddha carving was covered for repairs (it opened back up again a few days later! Grr!) my favourite part happened to be a small calve with over 5000 tiny carvings of the Buddha covering the walls. Many of the carvings were left headless from years of thievery which was an interesting fact to note. But now the statues are well protected and well worth the visit!HereComesTheSun1

Go during the day. The lake view is good. It's too hot. Did not wait until the night. Look at the effect of turning on the lights. Overall satisfaction. It is recommended to ask a tour guide. Otherwise, just look at the scenery. It will feel almost meaningless. Lack of enough understanding.
Luoyang must punch in the attractions, it is worth going. It is a great work left thousands of years ago. It is very shocking. It must be explained, otherwise it is equivalent to watching the stone. U-shaped route, tickets are small but suitable for all ages.
Five A scenic spot, very good. But the management of the scenic spot needs to be improved. You have to collect cash for shopping, saying that the network is not good. The bottled water in the freezer is at room temperature, and you have to drink cold, 19 ice cream or 23 drinks. The service center is very far away, and you have to walk one kilometer without taking a battery car.
20240416 afternoon: 1. Longmen Grottoes are a world cultural heritage on both sides of the Luoyang Yi River. It was dug in Luoyang, the capital of the Northern Wei Taihe 17 years (493), and the filial emperor moved to Luoyang. After more than 500 years of continuous excavation, it formed a 1 km-long scale-like magnificent grotto belt. The existing caves were 2,345, More than 2,800 inscriptions, more than 70 pagodas, more than 110,000 statues (30% in Northern Wei, 60% in Tang Dynasty), is the world's largest statue group, the largest scale of stone statues, is the first of China's three grottoes, the only royal grottoes. The scenic spot is from Dongshan Grottoes, Xishan Grottoes, Dong'an Observation Deck, Xiangshan Temple, Baijuyi Cemetery is composed of 5 areas, which are a good place for viewing photography, humanistic learning, ancient costume photo, night scene shooting, worshipping Buddha and praying, fitness and health. There are Tang Taizong, Wu Zetian, Qing Qianlong Emperor, Bai Juyi, Zhou Enlai, Jiang Jieshi, Song Meiling, Zhang Xueliang in history. Mei Lanfang and other celebrities footprints. ① Address: No. 13 Longmen Middle Street, Luolong District, Luoyang City, Henan Province ② Transportation: direct bus, easy to drive ③ Heavy season: No ④ Time: 5 hours ⑤ Ticket price: 90 yuan 2. Xishan Grottoes are located in Longmen Mountain on the west bank of Yihe River, lights up at 19:00, From the north to the south, there are (there are countless small grottoes without introduction cards, and they are introduced one by one due to space restrictions): ① Ticket Gate: Lantern Avenue is behind the door of the 3-dong house. The night view of the avenue is very beautiful. ② Manshui Bridge: Sangongshi Highway Bridge, tourists walk through the bridge from the bottom of the bridge ③ Wangchi: Two water flows into the semi-circular pool on the wall, and the koi swims in the pool. The pool is named after the allusion of "Dragon Gate". There is a two-story stone house with a lock on the pool. Chen Yubei: Chen Yu, a famous hermit in the early Song Dynasty, wrote a book when she was reclusive in Huashan (5A). After being stolen, she went around several times. During the Qing Dynasty (1862-1875 years), Chen Zhaoxu, a Luoyang native, asked the monks to inscribe the water on the Longmen cliff wall after receiving the Linyi post.⑤ Qianxi Temple: chiselled in the Tang Gaozong period (649-683 years), the main Buddha Amitabha Buddha height 7.8 meters ⑥ Beiwei Binyang North Cave/Zhongdong/Nandong: chiselled in the first year of Jingming (500 years) to the four years of Zhengguang (523 years), It is the Gongde Grottoes opened by Xuanwu Emperor for his parents, plus Yongping Zhongxu Liu Teng for Xuanwu Emperor to open a total of 3, work 802366 people, because the court civil unrest only completed the Zhongdong (main Buddha III, there were 3 large reliefs in the front wall of the cave, of which "Xiaowen Emperor Li Buddha Map" and "Queen Li Buddha Map" The main body of the South Cave and the North Cave was completed in the Tang Dynasty. The main Buddha of the South Cave was8.6 meters high and equipped with more than 350 small Buddhas; the latter is the famous "scissors hand" Amitabha Buddha. This three-hole is the only royal grotto in China that clearly records the reasons, processes, and employment of the excavation. The monument of Ili Foqi: the original object of the famous monument of Northern Wei, high 2.88 meters, wide 1.9 meters, is the fourth son of Tang Taizong, and Li Tai, the fourth son of Wei Wang, the son of his mother, the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson of the grandson At the same time, the inscription was opened in Binyang South Cave, and the inscription was written by the Prime Minister/prosecutortext, one of the four calligraphers in the early Tang DynastySui Liang's handwriting... The number of words exceeded the limit, and continued in the last picture
Taking advantage of the relatively few people before May Day, the first stop to bring family to Henan for tourism, is not a loss for the world cultural heritage, the first of the four grottoes, the superb skills of the grotto carving is too great, standing in front of the Buddha statue can not help but feel the wisdom of the ancients. The grottoes are mainly concentrated on the west bank of the river. The route is based on the route of going north to south on the west bank ☞ crossing the river ☞ south to north on the east bank. Before coming, I recommend the northwest parking lot on the Internet. It is close to the entrance of the scenic spot. It is indeed a lot closer to walking, but if you want to take a battery car to return to the parking lot when you return to the east bank, I can only sit in the Northeast parking lot, but it is farther away from the Northwest parking lot. People who can't walk want to take the shortest road back to the Northwest parking lot. Either walk or take a boat 40/person (the battery car in the Northwest parking lot is out of service). I really don't know if this is a diversion measure for the scenic spot. When shopping, it is best to explain or rent a guide, 30 yuan / table, deposit 200 / table, not to go around the flower.
Night tour Longmen has always been one of the characteristics of the entire Longmen Grottoes, but for some reasons, it stopped for a while. Today, March 30, Longmen Grottoes finally ushered in the first shining night. If you come to Luoyang during the Peony Festival, you want to see the scenery of the Longmen Grottoes at night. There are the following precautions, you can mark! 1. Even if you buy a ticket for the day, you can also visit the Longmen Grottoes at night. So I suggest that friends who want to take pictures of Longmen Grottoes, come in early in the afternoon, first enjoy the Longmen Grottoes during the day, and wait until the sun is about to fall, and the photos taken when it is going to be dark will be particularly blue and beautiful. 2. If you only want to see friends who travel at night, you can enter the scenic spot after 6 o'clock, and the fare is 90 yuan. There is no discount, and there are many attractions that you can't see. It is better to choose the afternoon time to come in. 3. The Longmen Grottoes at night are naturally the most beautiful in the main scenic spot, but don't just punch in the main scenic spot and leave in a hurry, because the river and mountains are taken on the opposite bank of the river, and the overall outline of the Longmen Grottoes is a beautiful picture. 4. Poor friends must pay attention to the latest bus, the last bus of No. 81 is 20:55, so it is recommended that you come in in the afternoon and see more than 8 o'clock to leave, so that you can take pictures of the beauty of day and night and don't worry about not having a bus to take a taxi back to the city. After all, Longmen Grottoes are still some distance from the city.
Located in Luoyang City, Henan Province, Longmen Grottoes is the world's largest and largest stone art treasure house, UNESCO named "the highest peak of Chinese stone art", ranking first of China's major grottoes. It is now a world cultural heritage, a key cultural relics protection unit in the country, and a national AAAAA-level tourist attraction. Non-holidays are already crowded. In order to see the night view, we grabbed a profit position on the other side of the Yi River early, and we didn't leave until we saw the scenery on earth.
Be sure to go in the afternoon, first look at the grottoes, then go to the Xiangshan Temple on the other side of Yishui, and watch the night view of the grotto on the other side at night, super beautiful! On the other side of the river, you have to go to occupy a good location early, it is very popular! But don't go on holidays, there are a lot of people!
