很漂亮，很多好看的花，超级适合来这个拍照，看到好多带摄影师的小姐姐，吹吹河风，看到还有坐船的，太美了，今天刚好端午，天气也超好，微风不燥！还有好多体验的小游戏，和自主文创，推荐！

I recommend trying coffee with a donut and buying a lavender lamb

We couldn't book the more famous Shaanxi Museum tickets so we turned to Xi'an Museum instead, but my oh my if it was a lovely surprise 🫢🫢 This place has so many cute and historical exhibition bits, with in-depth and comprehensive story about the long long long history of Xi'an since pre-histiric era up until now. There was also a full map of the inner city wall in Silk Road era that you can still find some places are reserved nowadays! And we see the proof that ancient Tang women were chubby and proud! 😁😁 It's also worth mentioning that the museum provides a guide who's VERY fluent in English to take you around the exhibition (at least ours was super nice and lovely 😍), the fee is decent as well, I remember it was only around 300 CNY, so if you have more than 1 person coming with you the fee can be distributed and comes cheaper individually. Highly highly recommended!

Henan is the cradle of Chinese civilization. Known as the Central Plains (中原), it is where the earliest dynasties, writing systems, bronze technology, and organized states first emerged. The fertile soil of the Yellow River nurtured farming communities as early as 5000 BCE, laying the foundation for Chinese culture.Luoyang, in Henan, is historically celebrated as the Ancient Capital of Luoyang was once the capital of 13 dynasties, and the wealth of artifacts unearthed from the city is immense. The Luoyang Museum alone houses nearly 200,000 relics. On my final day in Luoyang, I chose to visit this institution. Admission is free, but I was taken aback by the long queue at the entrance when I arrived at 8:30 a.m. Fortunately, even without registering through the online app, I was allowed entry by presenting my passport.The museum is organized into eight galleries:Heluo Civilization GalleryTreasure GalleryTang Sancai GalleryCeramics GalleryCalligraphy & Painting GalleryStone Carving GalleryFolk Art GalleryBronze GalleryChinese bronzes are particularly distinctive. Unlike Europe’s utilitarian bronzes, those in China were primarily ceremonial, used in ancestral rites. Monumental vessels such as the 司母戊鼎 (Si Mu Wu Fang Ding) weigh over 800 kg — unmatched anywhere else. Bronze culture endured in China far longer than in other regions, deeply shaping later dynasties. This is why museums like Henan and Luoyang emphasize bronzes as cultural treasures rather than mere technological artifacts.It is an eye opening trip seeing the artifacts excavated from the 13 dynasties.

Luoyang’s White Horse Temple (白马寺) is revered as the birthplace of Chinese Buddhism, and the Longmen Grottoes (龙门石窟) — with over 100,000 Buddhist statues — are honored as a UNESCO World Heritage site. Kaifeng, meanwhile, was the world’s largest city during the Northern Song dynasty, a thriving metropolis of commerce and culture.Henan as a whole is culturally dense and historically profound. The Henan Museum located at Zhengzhou is a must-visit, serving as a microcosm of Chinese civilization across thousands of years.I visited Henan Museum on a weekday and was struck by the sheer size of the crowd. Admission is free, but locals must register in advance. As a foreigner, I simply presented my passport, wrote my name in the register, and was then free to explore.The Henan Provincial Museum features one main permanent exhibition, Ancient Civilization of the Central Plains, divided into eight chronological galleries, alongside four themed galleries — Bronze of Chu, Ancient Jade, Treasures of Ming & Qing, and Musical Instruments. Each gallery highlights a different facet of Henan’s role as the cradle of Chinese civilization.I was deeply impressed by the exquisite porcelain, bronze bells and ritual vessels, the earliest pottery, oracle bones and early writing, Buddhist sculptures, and funerary art. My visit lasted about 3 hours enough to take in all the galleries and appreciate Henan’s extraordinary legacy.Article published at TripAdvisor on 20 Sep 26
