I arrived in Kaifeng last night. Because it was already 18 o'clock, I only visited Kaifeng Drum Tower. night market. The night market is full of all kinds of local snacks, and there is also a large area for barbecue night beer.

I got up at 7 o'clock in the morning, had a very Henan-style breakfast in the hotel, and walked to the entrance of Yanqing Temple. It was only 8 o'clock and the door was not open yet. At 8:30, buy a ticket and go in. A three-story pavilion with side halls on both sides, only one entrance into the courtyard! I'm so stunned. It's such a small Taoist temple. This may be the smallest monastery I've ever seen. A ticket of 30 yuan is still too expensive. The only attraction is the Yuhuang Pavilion, which was built in the Yuan Dynasty. It was once underground and was later renovated and raised. The architecture is indeed beautiful, especially the sculptures on the roof. It's just that it's smaller and taller. You have to look up and look carefully to see that it's a warrior or a barbarian. When I asked the administrator why he couldn't see the white marble Jade Emperor, he was told that he was in the pavilion, but I couldn't go up to the pavilion, so I could only look up from below, but I could only see his shadow and nothing. 30 yuan per person is too expensive. If you don’t particularly like ancient buildings, you don’t have to go.

Arrived at Daxiangguo Temple at 9:30. After turning around the Heavenly King's Hall, the Main Hall, the Octagonal Glaze Hall, and the Sutra Library, I found that there was a collection of donations here. There were hundreds of Arhats, some painted, some not. Moreover, two different types of Buddhas were enshrined in one hall at the same time. The monks were Explain to tourists that one more hall needs to be built, and another one is invited there. Everyone is welcome to raise funds. Daxiangguo Temple is also offering classes to teach martial arts.
