    The Luoyang Museum is an absolute underrated treasure! As a concentrated essence of the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties, it tells the story of the "Divine Capital's" glory in the most direct way. The unearthed Northern Wei clay Buddha face, though incomplete, possesses a serene and compassionate beauty that touches the soul—a "Mona Lisa of the East." Be sure to allocate at least 3 hours; the exhibits are incredibly informative! If you are a history enthusiast, this is paradise; if you are just passing through, it is enough to plant a seed of wonder in your heart—that the pulse of Chinese civilization once beat so powerfully here.

    The peonies in the National Flower Garden are very beautiful. The garden is not too big. We took a sightseeing bus. When we went there early in the morning, we could see the peonies in full bloom. They were very beautiful. In the afternoon, the flowers might have wilted a little.

    The interactive live-action performance in ancient costumes was a lot of fun, a real treat for history buffs. The theme was related to the rebellion of the Turkic prince Mochuo during the reign of Empress Wu Zetian, and even brought tears to the eyes of longtime fans of Detective Dee. I went without dinner, and the plates they gave us weren't enough; a plate of fried rice would have been fine too, as my stomach was growling.

    The park is very large and has a Han and Tang Dynasty style. The night views of Mingtang Paradise and Yingtian Gate are charming, and the Yingtian Gate light show is worth seeing. The martial arts field experience project at Jiuzhou Pond has a good design and is suitable for going at night. It is too hot during the day.

    I came to Luoyang specifically to see the peonies, and also visited this attraction on the way. The Mingtang Hall was the imperial court during the reigns of Emperor Gaozong and Empress Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty. It's magnificent and echoes the Yingtian Gate. The Tiantang Hall is a nine-story Buddhist hall with an elevator, but its capacity is small, and it's often full when there are many tourists. Climbing the upper floors offers a panoramic view of Luoyang. The murals inside are lifelike and exquisite. It's also very popular for nighttime viewing. The downsides are that the entrance fee is a bit expensive, and the restroom signs within the scenic area are unclear, making them a little difficult to find.

    Baima Temple truly deserves its reputation as China's oldest temple. Ancient cypress trees, some over a thousand years old, shade the red walls, and the chanting of Buddhist hymns seems to transcend time. There's no bustling commercialism, only a serene Zen atmosphere and a profound sense of history. Walking on the stone steps of Qingliang Terrace, watching the incense smoke rise, one can almost hear the echoes of camel bells from the Eastern Han Dynasty. A short two-hour visit felt like stepping into another world. This solemnity, passed down for millennia, commands utmost respect.

    Zhongyue truly lives up to its name. It's not just a masterpiece of nature, but a vivid and extreme manifestation of tectonic plate activity. Geologically, its mountain-building activity is far more active than the other mountains in the east, west, south, and north. A leisurely visit to Shaoshi Mountain takes about 4 hours, while Taishi Mountain takes roughly 9 hours. Either way, you'll have thick legs.
