Luoyang travel guide

Luoyang is my second hometown. There are many tourist attractions here. Today I will talk about Luoyang's travel strategy.

1. Longmen Grottoes

2. Old Town Cross Street

3. Ancient city of Luoyi

First, Longmen Grottoes

World cultural heritage, 5A-level scenic spot. When you come to Luoyang, you must go to see the giant Buddha of Lushena, who has been staring at it for thousands of years, go to the Millennium cemetery of Bai Juyi, a layman in Xiangshan, enjoy the beautiful scenery of a pine and cypress, and taste the special food of Longmen Ancient Street.

Main punching position

① Xishan Grottoes

Xishan Grottoes is the most important part of Longmen Grottoes. We don't need to climb too high, nor are we particularly tired, but we can't feel its grandeur if we watch it closely. We suggest watching it at night. Against the yellow light, the Buddha statue is lifelike.

② Dongshan Grottoes

There are fewer grottoes, so we have to climb higher mountains. Among them, the Buddha statue in the grottoes is Guanyin with a thousand hands. If you are not interested in this, it is not recommended to watch it, which can reduce the physical consumption of watching Longmen Grottoes.

Muxiangshan temple

Looking from the west of yi river, we can see the architectural style of Xiangshan Temple, which is very obvious in ancient temples. This self-concept is worth seeing, including the former residences of Chiang Kai-shek and Song Meiling, and Jiu Lao Tang. This scenic spot is my second favorite in Longmen Grottoes.

③ Gangbai Garden

Compared with other scenic spots, this scenic spot is the coolest because it has many trees. There are several small ponds in it, and the stairs are all stone roads, which is very artistic. But I heard that this place is not Bai Juyi's tomb, which needs to be verified ... it is still worth visiting.

Second, the old city cross street

At the beginning of the lights, the crowd was bustling, and the quaint ancient town Cross Street gathered all kinds of delicious food. Chicken wings rolling on the stove, sizzling squid on the iron plate, water cushion, stewed vegetables, grilled squid, roasted gluten, Gan Mei French fries, fried bean jelly, fried dumpling ... After one bite, the fatigue disappears, leaving behind the beating of taste buds and the satisfaction of mood.

3. Ancient city of Luoyi

Coming out of the cross street of the old city, it is recommended to go to the ancient city of Luoyi, 2 kilometers away, to feel the time and space crossing and appreciate the glory of Luoyang.

Highlights of the ancient city:

One step at a time in the ancient city, when night falls, it looks particularly charming in the shadow of the lighting system. It is a good place to enjoy the night view of Luoyang. There are many shops renting Hanfu in the city, all of which provide photography services. So when you come to the ancient city, you might as well put on Hanfu, walk through the city, and dream back to this prosperous capital thousands of years ago.

Admission: free.

Opening hours: 24 hours

Transportation: Take the subway 1 line and walk to Youth Palace Station for 5 minutes to reach the ancient city. You can also go to Lijingmen first. Go straight along West Street and East Street after playing, and then turn right to the ancient city.

Address: North of the intersection of Jiudu East Road and Liulin Street in Luoyang Old Town

These are the three places I recommend punching in. The three places are very close to each other, which is very friendly for friends with short time.
