This Iron Tower is the symbol of Kaifeng,

Accommodation in Kaifeng

You can choose to stay in two areas when traveling in Kaifeng:

1. Development zone: far away from the old area and major scenic spots. The development zone is located in the west of Kaifeng, and you can reach the old city in about 20 minutes by car.

2. Old Town: It has convenient transportation and gathers the main scenic spots in Kaifeng. It is convenient for sightseeing, eating and shopping. And there are many hotels here

The prices are cheap, three-star hotels are between 150-300 yuan, and others are even lower.

There are 12 scenic spots in Kaifeng, but generally 6 are worth visiting: Qingming Shanghe Garden 80, Longting 35, Kaifeng Mansion 50, Tianbo Yang 30, Daxiangguo Temple 30, Iron Tower 30, Bao Gong 20, half price for students with student ID.

Kaifeng’s dishes are all over the country. I believe there will be several that suit your taste. For example, girls like sweets: pine nuts and corn,

yoghurt with aloe, etc.

Kaifeng has the habit of drinking soup for breakfast, such as mutton soup at Simen, donkey meat soup at Zhongshan Road, and Baijia beef soup at Beitu Street.

There are also Daliang Steamed Buns on Bookstore Street.
