Kaifeng was temporarily closed due to the epidemic in August

Baogong Temple in Kaifeng Prefecture is an AAAA-level tourist attraction with an elegant environment, pleasant scenery, rich historical and cultural heritage, and great educational significance. However, due to the recent epidemic in Kaifeng, Bao Gong Temple in Kaifeng has been temporarily closed. Here are the specifics.

Introduction to Kaifeng Bao Gong Temple

Kaifeng Bao Gong Temple is small in area and is a group of ancient buildings imitating the Song Dynasty. It is composed of main hall, secondary hall, east and west side halls, half corridors, stele pavilion and other buildings. In the visitor hall, you can see a bronze statue of Bao Gong more than 3 meters high. Baomang's robe and crown sit upright, and on both sides of the bronze statue are displayed historical relics and classics reflecting Bao Gong's real life and honest character.

The second exhibition hall displays Bao Gong’s official poems, Kaifeng Mansion inscriptions, Bao Gong’s family motto, Bao Gong’s handwriting, epitaphs, etc. The Kaifu stele is engraved with the names of 148-year-old Kaifu Yin and 183-year-old Kaifu Yin in the Northern Song Dynasty and the year he took office. There is a deep dent under Bao Gong's name. People always point to his name when reading the inscription, and it has worn out over time.

In the east and west halls of the temple, Bao Gong's legends, anecdotes and historical stories are displayed in the form of pictures and text. The wax figures of the "Guild Beauty Case" group in the East Pavilion are life-size, lifelike and colorful, and are deeply loved by tourists.
