Detailed Guide for a One-Day Tour of Kaifeng Wansui Mountain Wuxia City
📅Date Locked: August 17, 2024. In the scorching summer, bring a small portable fan for a touch of coolness. The park's dining expenses are quite affordable, with prices only slightly higher than outside by 1-2 yuan, which is a rare bargain.
🕒Recommended Duration: For an in-depth experience, 1 to 2 days is ideal. I have meticulously planned a one-day itinerary based on detailed maps and activity schedules. Given the weekend peak crowds, be sure to arrive early for popular performances, especially the unmissable ones like 'Three Battles at Zhujiazhuang,' 'Iron Flower Show,' and 'Fire Pot.' It is recommended to secure a spot at least an hour in advance to avoid missing out. Particularly for the 'Iron Flower Show' evening spectacle, which starts at 8:30 PM, the crowd starts gathering as early as 6 PM. To experience the awe up close, arrive early.
🌿'Hero's Journey' Exploration: This program starts from the North Gate, passing through Happy Forest. Follow the actors along the way to experience a mobile wuxia feast. I missed the morning show and waited for the 2 PM performance instead. It is advisable to wait at the North Gate early. Once the opening performance ends, you can follow the troupe and enjoy a series of visual feasts. Unfortunately, I accidentally got separated from the group midway but unexpectedly encountered the heroic scene of 'Lu Zhishen's Rampage in Peach Blossom Village' in the Armory, which was quite a unique experience.
🏰'Three Battles at Zhujiazhuang' Viewing: I chose the 11 AM session and arrived early to secure a good viewing spot. The battlefield around the fortress is surrounded by food stalls, making lunch easy to solve. The half-hour battle was thrilling. For a more leisurely viewing experience, consider the 5 PM session, which seamlessly transitions to the evening 'Iron Flower Show,' avoiding the peak crowd.
🥊'Drunken Fight with Jiang Menshen' Grudge: At 2:30 PM, Happy Forest stirs again. This program also attracts many diners and spectators. Although the view from the stairs is good, it can get crowded. I couldn't fully enjoy it due to the dense crowd that day.
🌊Flying and Water Stunts: After 3:30 PM, Shenzhou Square becomes the stage for wuxia stunts. From 'Flying Heroine' to 'Water Flying Man,' to ring performances, double bamboo drifting, and 'Dreaming of the Jianghu,' it is recommended to grab a front-row spot to capture every thrilling moment.
🗡️'Lin Chong vs. Yang Zhi' and Snowy Night: At 5:10 PM, Happy Forest ignites again, and at 7:45 PM, 'Snowy Night at the Mountain God Temple' is beautifully performed. Unfortunately, I missed it due to queuing for the 'Iron Flower Show.'
🔥'Iron Flower Show' Splendid Night: As a must-see, the 8:30 PM Iron Flower Show is highly recommended to secure a spot by 6 PM. As the melodious songs play, the whole audience resonates. With glow sticks waving, the brilliance of human civilization and the magnificence of the Iron Flower intertwine, freezing time in that moment.
🎆Double Feast of Fire Pot and Fireworks: After the Iron Flower Show, Shenzhou Square immediately welcomes the 9:10 PM fireworks show, followed by the 9:55 PM Fire Pot stunt. The combination of danger and awe is best viewed from the center of the square, leaving a lasting impression.
🌟In summary, the trip was full of highlights, especially 'Three Battles at Zhujiazhuang,' 'Iron Flower Show,' and 'Fire Pot.' I look forward to stepping into this wuxia world again in the future to continue the unfinished Jianghu adventure.

Kaifeng's Eternal Life Mountain Martial Arts City - Immerse yourself in the world of chivalry and rivalry
In early summer, I returned once again to my second hometown, Kaifeng, stepping into the Eternal Life Mountain Song Dynasty Martial Arts City, to experience a dreamy martial arts journey back to a thousand years ago. Outside the city gates, it was bustling with traffic, and it took a lot of effort to find a parking spot; inside, the city was crowded with tourists, shoulder to shoulder, but the various performances were a feast for the eyes.
Of course, the not-to-be-missed event is the 'Iron Flower Fireworks' performance at the city square at night. This intangible cultural heritage performance blends sparks with molten iron, with the flying sparks illuminating the night sky, creating a stunningly beautiful scene, bringing the most shocking visual enjoyment and the most unforgettable Chinese-style romance. Watching the faces illuminated by the firelight, all are filled with joy and happiness.
Fans of 'Water Margin' should not miss the 'Battle of Zhu Family Village' at the city's sand field. The show starts with an interactive segment, where the audience can participate and even have a chance to win 'silver notes'. The horse racing performance, cannon bombardment, and horseback combat scenes make one feel as if they are on an ancient battlefield, especially recommended is the afternoon session, which has a better effect and a stronger sense of immersion.
The 'Legend of Shenzhou' performance at 20:30 in the evening at Shenzhou Square combines water screen movies with stunning special effects, has a strong narrative, and the actors' dedicated performances are breathtaking.
For visitors who prefer a relaxed atmosphere, the recently viral 'Madam Wang's Matchmaking' is a good choice. This performance combines traditional matchmaking with modern marriage culture, light-hearted and pleasant, where young people can open their hearts and even find love.
The 'Eternal Life Mountain Martial Arts Music Festival' with its atmospheric vibe is truly inspiring, with one classic song after another immersing the audience in the world of martial arts, and the audience's chorus is full of nostalgia, immersing people in a sea of music and emotion.
Whether it's martial arts performances or folk stunts, each show is full of sincerity, taking you on a unique journey through the world of chivalry, to fulfill the dream of 'wandering the world with a sword in hand'.
Kaifeng's Eternal Life Mountain Song Dynasty Martial Arts City is both a reenactment of historical culture and a palace of audio-visual feasts. Every time I come here, I have different insights in my heart.

Hello there! This is Kaifeng!
Departing from Zhengzhou for a day trip to Kaifeng, whether you take the bus or the intercity train, the speed is quite fast and very convenient. I set off in the afternoon and took the intercity train from Zhengzhou East to Songcheng Road Station. After getting off the train, there is a bus that goes to the scenic area. I bought a joint ticket for three gardens, first visited the Han Garden, then went to the Kaifeng City Wall to watch the sunset, and in the evening, I went to Wansui Mountain Martial Arts City to watch a performance. The day's itinerary was packed and clear. Taiyuan has poetry programs, and the city wall also has a light show. What surprised me the most was the iron flower performance at Wansui Mountain at night, which was really fantastic, definitely the best I have ever seen. Wansui Mountain Scenic Area closes at 11 pm, and the last iron flower show is at 10 pm. By this time, many people have left, so you don't have to worry about not getting a seat in the audience. However, the same buses, shared bicycles, and electric vehicles are probably gone, so you can only choose to take a taxi or walk.

Kaifeng Wansui Mountain Travel Guide
My purpose is very clear, I came for the 'Three Beats of Zhu's Manor' and the iron flower show that's especially popular!
I arrived at the scenic area at three in the afternoon, passed through the Music Fountain, the Hundred Joys Stage, and the Puppet Dance Stage, and headed straight for the Sand City! The show at five o'clock was almost full by three-thirty! Any later and you'd have to sit on the steps in the aisle to experience it firsthand! Sitting on a wooden stool, my buttocks were numb and my hands were freezing after two hours, and my phone was about to die, so I strongly recommend bringing a small cushion! (Because it's even colder at night during the iron flower show, and you sit for a longer time!)
The 'Three Beats of Zhu's Manor' was truly stunning. Seeing the muscles of the horses tremble as they ran, that dynamic beauty was truly impressive - during the deafening sound of the cannons, I was blown away! It's all dubbed, and the actors lip-sync, so it's a bit off, but overall it's great! On the small stage, you can appreciate the actors' heroic postures, it's worth it!
Because the area is under renovation, the scenic area is also a construction site, so there's dust everywhere, which even caused the Asia Rotating Show to stop performing, and I ended up blowing in the wind at the Shenzhou Plaza for an hour for nothing.
The 'Iron Flower' show, if one person doesn't make an impression, what about five people!? My goodness, my eyes were full of stars, I was very moved by this program. From the introduction of the fire seed at the beginning of human civilization, which included primitive dances and fire worship, to the performances of slash-and-burn agriculture, silk gathering, fire starting, and jar balancing, I saw elephants and donkeys! Then there was a long session of iron flower performance, super worth it!! I even forgot about the numbness - (Seven o'clock! Seven o'clock! You have to come and get a seat, the show starts at nine!)
Finally, there was the fire carnival, where everyone rushed in hand in hand, and under the host's lead, we all started moving and dancing together. At that moment, no one knew who was next to them, everyone forgot their identities, their names, and were immersed in the moment, it was very touching.
A 30 yuan ticket for a six-hour stroll, a 5 yuan Erniang pastry, and a 10 yuan wonton, enough to fill the stomach.

Kaifeng, the capital of the Song Dynasty
I went on a spontaneous trip with my travel buddy to Kaifeng, Henan, one of the eight ancient capitals with more than two thousand years of history.
D1 Xiangyang-Zhengzhou-Songcheng
In the evening, after a 3-hour high-speed train ride, snacking on spicy chicken with beer, we embarked on a carefree journey and stayed overnight at Mo Li Guesthouse in the Drum Tower District, a Southeast Asian-style courtyard, so relaxing!
D2 Kaifeng Prefecture - Da Xiangguo Temple - Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden - Stay at Mo Li Guesthouse
Hot and spicy soup, fried dough sticks, vegetable horns, and buns, a local breakfast, kick-started our day.
The city's transportation was all taken care of by shared electric scooters, which were perfect for us who are over fifty. The attractions in Kaifeng are compact and suitable for our age group. For lunch, we had local specialties like Yellow River carp and soup dumplings. After a midday rest at the guesthouse, we went out at 3 pm to Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden for a Song Dynasty-style tea boiling session by the stove as the sun set, experiencing the prosperous Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden.
D3 Iron Pagoda Park - Wansui Mountain Martial Arts City - Songcheng - Zhengzhou - Xiangyang
I got up early and rode my electric scooter through the small alleys, passing through Daliang Gate into the imperial city. After a quick breakfast at a roadside shop, I headed straight to Iron Pagoda Park (free of charge). I looked up the history of the Iron Pagoda online (I won't explain here), took a tour, and then went to Wansui Mountain. There were so many people at Wansui Mountain, I browsed, watched, squeezed through the crowds, and checked in. This place, hyped by the internet, is too suitable for the young, sigh! I saved some energy and headed back.
In summary, Kaifeng's impact includes the prosperity of Bianjing, the honest simplicity of the people of Henan, the distinctive features of the Central Plains' food culture, and an extremely high cost-performance ratio. It's worth a visit.

Kaifeng Wansui Mountain Martial Arts City | Once you go, not a peep
Kaifeng, this ancient city of a thousand years, has a long history and profound cultural heritage. Wansui Mountain Martial Arts City is a dazzling pearl of Kaifeng, attracting countless tourists to visit.
Entering the Martial Arts City is like traveling through time and space, returning to the era of the turbulent Jianghu. During the day, the Martial Arts City is simple and elegant, with a variety of buildings that are dazzling. Walking on the ancient streets, the shops on both sides are full of treasures, as if you can smell the fragrance of history. But the Martial Arts City at night has a different flavor. With the lights up, the entire Martial Arts City is adorned with colorful lights, like a dreamy fairyland.
The performances in Martial Arts City are a major highlight. The aerial ring performance is highly recommended, especially at night. The actors tumble and dance in the air, with lights, music, and performance perfectly blended, leaving the audience in awe. Wang Po matchmaking is a humorous and interactive live drama that makes people laugh out loud. Fei Yun Pu is a classic of combat scenes, making people feel as if they are in the world of martial arts.
Of course, there is one performance you can't miss—Legend of Shenzhou. This is a visual feast that combines situational performances, water screen projections, and fireworks. As the plot progresses, the water screen projection presents various fantastical images, complementing the live performance. And the final fireworks display pushes the entire show to a climax, leaving the audience utterly amazed.
In addition to the wonderful performances, there are many attractions in Martial Arts City worth visiting. Such as Da Tie Hua, which is an intangible cultural heritage skill. Watching the iron flowers bloom in the air is like seeing the wisdom and ingenuity of ancient craftsmen.
Kaifeng Wansui Mountain Martial Arts City is a tourist destination that combines culture, entertainment, and leisure. Whether it's day or night, there are countless surprises waiting for you. Come and start your martial arts journey!
