Henan has been achieving good results with its own strength in recent years, and many tourist attractions in Henan have become more and more popular. Henan Province was named Henan because most of it was located south of the Yellow River in history. In ancient times, the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River had crisscrossed rivers, dense forests, and numerous wild elephants. Henan was described as a place where people lead elephants, which is the origin of the pictographic character "Yu" and the origin of the abbreviation of "Yu" in Henan. Henan's tourism industry is also the product of these special geographical conditions.

Henan is a big province of cultural tourism, so there are many cultural attractions. However, there are also many very good natural scenic spots.
