A must-see in Kaifeng is the "World's No. 1 Pagoda" - Iron Pagoda.

🌟🌟🌟🌟 Highlights: 💥 Iron Pagoda Park is located in Kaifeng, Henan Province. The Iron Pagoda was built in the first year of the Northern Song Dynasty, nearly a thousand years ago. It is the oldest and best-preserved glazed brick pagoda in China. It is renowned for its exquisite craftsmanship and high cultural value, earning the title of "World's No. 1 Pagoda." ⭐️ The Iron Pagoda is 55.88 meters tall and has 13 octagonal stories. It is also known as the "Kaibao Temple Pagoda" because it is located at Kaibao Temple. The pagoda is made entirely of brown glazed bricks, resembling an iron pillar, hence the name "Iron Pagoda." ✨ The Iron Pagoda is ingeniously designed, using traditional Chinese wooden structures. The bricks are decorated with dozens of patterns, such as flying unicorns and musicians. The bricks fit together perfectly, as if carved with a knife. Despite enduring wars, floods, earthquakes, and other natural disasters for over a thousand years, the pagoda still stands tall. 💫 In addition to the Iron Pagoda, Iron Pagoda Park also features other attractions, such as the Jiying Hall, Linggan Courtyard, Bonsai Garden, and Hegong Pavilion. 🔥 Iron Pagoda Park is free to visit during the day. There are ancient costume dance performances in front of the Jiying Hall and at the food street square. From May to September, there are two Iron Pagoda light shows at night (the park is cleared at 19:00, and an additional fee is required to watch the light show).

Winter in Kaifeng is already here, so I don't recommend visiting Kaifeng in January or February!
