    Stepping into the Qingming Shanghe Garden, it seems to have instantly passed back to the bustling capital of the Northern Song Dynasty. The antique buildings and staff in Song costumes in the garden make people seem to be in the picture scroll of the Qingming Shanghe Map. Walking along the lake, the clear lake water is interesting with weeping willows, and occasionally a few ducks play on the water, which rises layer by layer. Hongqiao is one of the landmark buildings in the park. It spans the Weihe River, connects the north and south sides, and stands on the bridge, as if you can feel the hustle and bustle of thousands of years ago. The performances in the park are wonderful. The welcome ceremony of Bao Gong starts at 9 am every morning. Historical figures such as Bao Zheng hold fists and give gifts. Welcome tourists to come. The ceremony is full of sense. There are also interactive programs such as chicken fighting performances and Wang Yuanwai Zhaoxuan, which makes people seem to be returning to the Liangcheng full of fireworks. In addition, the food in the garden is also a highlight. The aroma of Kaifeng specialty snacks such as soup dumplings, salmon noodles, almond tea is overflowing, making people mouth watering. As night fell, the lights in the garden were lit, and the ancient buildings were magnificent under the light, like a palace, strolling in it, as if entering a dream world. Qingming Shanghe Garden is not only a good place to visit, but also an excellent place to experience the culture of the Song Dynasty, which makes people linger.

    It's a lot of fun, and it's very close to the Xiangguo Temple, so you can visit both together. It mainly introduces the deeds of Bao Zheng and historical information about Kaifeng Prefecture. Unlike the Kaifeng Prefecture itself, which features performances...
