|Kaifeng Little Jiangnan, amazing!! Chinese Han Garden Stele Forest| Kaifeng Little Jiangnan, amazing!!
The Han Garden Stele Forest is located in the Longting Lake Scenic Area of Kaifeng City, next to the Qingming Shanghe Garden. It integrates the landscape art of mountains and waters and the architectural art of classical gardens, and gathers the great achievements of ancient and modern Chinese and foreign poetry, calligraphy, painting, and stele art. Everyone!! Must go!!
Time: 08:00~18:00
I entered from the north gate, and the stele forest came into view. It was extremely spectacular. There are more than 3,800 pieces of calligraphy and painting steles. The stele corridor is six miles long. It is inlaid with the representative stele posts of calligraphy masters from all dynasties, which is very shocking.
The entire park covers an area of 120 acres. The southern part is a garden scenic area. There are pavilions, towers, rock mountains and waterfalls, which fully reflect Chinese architecture. The boat in the lake needs to be paid for (20), which is very photogenic. If you want to take pictures, remember to wear Hanfu or cheongsam. Every step is a scene, highly recommended.
The entire scenic area takes about an hour and a half to stroll around. If you take pictures, you need to calculate separately. There are also performances in the scenic area. You can watch the performance schedule. It's worth a visit

Things you must know before going to Kaifeng China Han Garden Stele Forest
Hi~ everyone, I am Senyu. Recently, many friends from other places have asked me, when visiting Kaifeng, besides going to Kaifeng Qingming Shanghe Garden, Kaifeng Mansion, and Daxiangguo Temple, are there any other recommended places to visit? To this question, as someone who has been to Kaifeng N times, China Han Garden Stele Forest is also a good place to visit~
•
In fact, many friends from other places have always mentioned Kaifeng, most of them know about Qingming Shanghe Garden, and few friends know about China Han Garden Stele Forest. To be honest, this scenic spot is also worth visiting, and the scenery and buildings inside are worth appreciating. The following travel guide took me a week to organize, remember to collect it

📌【6️⃣ things you must know before coming to China Han Garden Stele Forest】
❶Actually, many people have not heard of China Han Garden Stele Forest, which causes many friends to leave after visiting Qingming Shanghe Garden. China Han Garden Stele Forest is next to Qingming Shanghe Garden, friends with ample time must go and check in
❷The exits of China Han Garden Stele Forest are very easy to take a taxi, and the bus is also very convenient. However, if you travel, I suggest you take a taxi by Didi, the cost of a taxi is rounded up, I personally don't like this, I only heard about this in Kaifeng
❸For accommodation, I suggest choosing to stay next to Qingming Shanghe Garden, which is closer to China Han Garden Stele Forest, Wansui Mountain Dazhong Wuxia City, City Wall Scenic Area, and Kaifeng Mansion
❹It is recommended to visit China Han Garden Stele Forest for 2-3 hours. If you have plenty of time, you can take a boat ride, and you will feel extremely comfortable when you row
❺The single ticket for China Han Garden Stele Forest is not cost-effective, it is recommended to buy a 60 yuan joint ticket or directly apply for a tourist annual card, which is also 60 yuan, and you can visit for 13 months, which is super cost-effective
❻In the afternoon of a sunny day in Han Garden Stele Forest, there will be a sunset, which is super atmospheric, and it is also very photogenic. Friends who like photography can go ahead and find a position, highly recommended

▪️During the Chinese New Year, there will be a Dragon Year Lantern Exhibition and a temple fair at night in China Han Garden Stele Forest. Those who like to enjoy lanterns can take their family to see

Must-visit in Kaifeng | Hanyuan Stele Forest Art Temple Fair
|Hanyuan Stele Forest Art Temple Fair. Must-visit in Kaifeng | Hanyuan Stele Forest Art Temple Fair
The Art Temple Fair at Hanyuan Stele Forest left me and my friends in awe, it's really a great place to visit!
It's very suitable for family outings during the Spring Festival, full of festive atmosphere, not only rich and colorful folk activities, but also unique check-in points. You can interact with many NPCs, experience traditional arts such as rubbing and calligraphy, and there are also boat rides, temple fair activities
When the lights are on at night, the whole scenic area is even more beautiful, a feast for the eyes

Escape from the hustle and bustle, recommended secret spots!
I've already visited two attractions in the three-day holiday👍
I recommend everyone to buy a joint ticket for the Chinese Han Garden Stele Forest, City Wall, and Wansui Mountain. Student tickets are half price, around 30💕
🌸First attraction: Chinese Han Garden Stele Forest🌟 I went there on the 29th. There weren't many people. The attractions inside are super photogenic. Sisters who like to take photos can go. Any shot is beautiful. There are many stele forests inside. The scenery is also super good when standing on it. There seems to be a chrysanthemum exhibition recently. The scenery feels better than the first time I went.
🌸Second attraction: City Wall. This one feels average personally because I was tired after visiting the Stele Forest. I didn't have the energy to visit the City Wall. There are also performances on the City Wall. You can take a look. If you go early, you can take a sightseeing car. It's more comfortable than visiting by yourself, and you can go directly to the next stop, Wansui Mountain.
🌸Third attraction: Wansui Mountain. Highly recommended. It's also the place I most want to go. The ticket price feels worth it. There are many performances inside. We arrived after four o'clock. They won't let you in after five o'clock. When we went that day, we also caught up with a boxing match. It was quite exciting. Around seven in the evening, there will be a music festival performance. If you want to watch, it's best to go and occupy a spot after six o'clock. There are more people. I only watched the opening warm-up performance. It was not bad. Around eight o'clock, I went to wait for the iron flower performance. It started on time at nine o'clock. Waiting for an hour felt worth it. It was super beautiful. The photos taken with the phone are not as good as the naked eye. You must go and see!!
🌸Finally, don't go to the Qingming Shanghe Garden during the National Day. There are a lot of people. Really, there are people everywhere. Watching a performance, as far as the eye can see, a mountain is full of people. The experience is very poor. The ticket price is also much more expensive than Wansui Mountain. After strolling for more than an hour, I wanted to go out.
I hope these travel attraction strategies can help everyone! Have fun!🎉

China Han Garden is located in the northwest corner of Longting Lake Scenic Area in Kaifeng City. It is a cultural garden created by Mr. Li Gongtao and his family with self-raised funds. The garden integrates the landscape art and classical garden architecture, and collects the achievements of ancient and modern Chinese and foreign poetry, calligraphy, and stele art. The garden covers an area of 120 acres, with the southern part being the garden scenic area and the northern part being the stele display area. More than 3,800 pieces of calligraphy and stele are displayed, and the six-mile-long stele corridor is arranged in chronological order, inlaying the representative stele posts of calligraphy masters from all dynasties. At the same time, the modern stele corridor, which is divided by calligraphy styles, fully displays the artistic style of contemporary calligraphy masters.

: China Hanyuan Stele Forest
where to go to spring? I will recommend you to Kaifeng Hanyuan Forest.
Most of the love for Kaifeng comes from the night scene. It is really an obsessive city, a city that people will miss when they come.
Yiling, Ertan, Sanshan, Santai, Sanhu, Sanwan, Sandao, Sanquan, Wuxi, Jiu Waterfall, Shifeng, Twelve Bridge, Twelve Pavilions The Han Garden at night is quiet and beautiful. It is like a sleeping beauty waiting for you to discover. This is the perfect combination of landscape art landscape and classical garden art. Do you feel her beauty?

Entering the gate of the Chinese Han Garden, I saw the statue of the Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor, and suddenly awe-inspiring, he was as high as 18 meters, vividly showing the sacred solemnity and sublimity of the Yellow Emperor. In the center of the pedestal, there are seven dragons and white bas-reliefs, which symbolize that Kaifeng is the ancient capital of the seven dynasties; the faucet relief on the pedestal jade railing symbolizes that the descendants of the Yan and Huang dynasties are descendants of the dragon.
Yangsheng Mountain is the highest in the man-made mountains of the Hanyuan Forest in China. Its main peak is 24 meters high, and the side peaks are high and low. The waterfall in front of the mountain falls by 19 meters. The main peak of Yangsheng Mountain has a four-storey hall with a total area of about 500 square meters.
is located at the foot of the west side of Yangsheng Mountain. It is a hollow corridor-style antique building with a chair under the gallery and a stone bench. The verses of the verses of the verses of the verses are quaint, and are the perfect place for literati to sing poetry and entertain.
The monument is a circular classical building designed according to the Temple of Heaven in Beijing. The exterior is entirely made of white marble. The four sides are all 31 steps, divided into upper and lower three floors, one of which is a large dome-shaped exhibition hall with an area of 260 square meters. It holds exhibitions of paintings, photography and other works throughout the year. The monument is the base of the cultural exchange activities of the Chinese Han Garden and one of the landmarks of the Chinese Han Garden.

China Hanyuan, bathed for 30 years of spring and autumn, and traces of the years, whether it is calligraphy inscriptions or cultural heritage is first-class, this is the amazing temperament of the Chinese Han Garden.
The northern part of the Han Garden is dominated by the monumental architecture. There are more than 3,800 calligraphy and painting inscriptions. The little friends who are interested in art such as calligraphy and painting can go there carefully.

Into Kaifeng "Chinese Han Garden", for example, into the windmill world in the TV series, 100,000 windmills to create a windmill-themed filial piety culture tour.
The time tunnel consisting of thousands of colorful windmills rotates with the wind. The rotating windmill symbolizes the happy flow, and is a beautiful memory of the innocent and happy childhood.
China Hanyuan is located in the Longting Lake Scenic Area of Kaifeng City. It is a cultural garden integrating the landscape art landscape and classical garden architecture art, integrating ancient and modern Chinese and foreign poetry, calligraphy and painting and inscription art.
Waterfall, fountain, lake, and small islands are shining together. The pavilions and pavilions are hidden in the lakes and mountains, and the scenery is beautiful and charming.
