When you come to Shangqiu, Henan, you must visit the ancient city and see Mulan Ancestral Hall. You have missed Mangdang Mountain, which is a must-see spot. I will share some tips with you, hoping you can use them.

First, Shangqiu Ancient City

How can you not come to Shangqiu? This is one of the well-preserved ancient cities in China, and the only government-level city site preserved in the Central Plains during the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is also the only large-scale ancient city site in the world that integrates Bagua City, Shuicheng City and Chengdui City, and does not lose the ancient city of Phoenix! Admission: free opening hours: all-day parking lot: free

Place where the ancient city must punch in:

Yingtian Academy: the first of the four academies in the Northern Song Dynasty, and also promoted to imperial academy as the highest institution of higher learning in the Northern Song Dynasty. Fan Zhongyan studied hard here, was admitted to the Jinshi, took charge of the university, and became a famous writer and politician in history.

Hou Fangyu's former residence: the writing place for Hou Fangyu, a talented scholar in the late Ming Dynasty, is a quadrangle with two entrances and exits. The main building in the courtyard is Zhuang Regret Hall, where the Collection of Zhuang Regret Hall was written. The east and west buildings are Xueyuanshe and Emerald Building (where Hou Fangyu's beloved wife, Li Xiangjun, one of the eight beauties of Qinhuai, lives)

Guidefu Confucian Temple: it is now the largest Confucian Temple in Henan Province, and there is also a thousand-year-old acacia tree in the courtyard

Baguan Pavilion: there is a stone tablet of Yan Zhenqing and a thousand-year banquet tablet, which records the grand occasion of the last "thousand-year banquet" held by Emperor Qianlong. Tip: The gate is an arch coupon, the east gate says "Binyang", the south gate says "Gongyang", the west gate says "Jingze" and the north gate says "Gongchen"

Second, Mulan Ancestral Hall

chirps after chirps, and Mulan weaves as a household. In the scenic spot, there is an area dedicated to night tours, with "East City" inside. Walking along the street, you can also meet many Mulan elements: the string of lights hanging on the tree shines with the poem "Mulan Poetry", which makes people stop to read; There is a loom in front of the attic window of "Bingshu Lane", where visitors can experience weaving on the spot; The eaves, stone walls and plaques of "Lantern Lane" are dotted with various lanterns. Pass ticket:? 1 yuan opening hours: 8:-17:3 Cuisine: Basically, all the places we go are snacks, one shop at a time, and all the local cuisines gather together. The stinky tofu is thundered, and the mutton kebabs rolled with sesame seeds are not bad, and the price is slightly high, which is acceptable for the scenic spot after all. Photographing: Although the scenic spot is not big, it belongs to the "short and pithy" architectural decoration, so it stands out. Moreover, there is a photography shop in the street, with 56 makeup and costumes. Fairy who wants to take pictures can enter the scenic spot early.

If you are a big friend, you are recommended to take a look at the statue of Liu Bang and then the tomb of Han Liang.
