We were so lucky to meet the professional Xiao Bing! He guided us along the historical trails to understand and experience the Longmen Grottoes. We chased the sunset, watching the interplay of light and shadow on the Buddha statues, imagining the changes that have occurred over the millennia. For a full 3.5 hours, Xiao Bing shared so much knowledge with us. Thank you so much! We look forward to coming back again to see the other row of restored grottoes. It was definitely worth it!

"Tokyo Dreamland" is definitely worth seeing. The beginning and ending echo each other well. The entire park is meticulously detailed, with hot water available, and the restrooms are spotless no matter where you are. The chrysanthemum decorations are beautiful, and there are many rides. Every step reveals a new scene, and there's time for visitors to reflect. The music is also carefully chosen. I would definitely go again.

It was beautiful. I tried both the first and second cable car lines, but unfortunately the elevator was closed. The scenery of the Ten-Mile Painting Screen was stunning, but there were also many people. In the end, the mountain was so crowded that it became a "traffic jam" (a term used to describe a large number of people stuck on a mountain).

A trip to Kaifeng is incomplete without a visit; even after two days, I still wanted more. The variety of performances was dazzling, ranging from traditional arts to modern song and dance, martial arts to fantasy, and even ballet. On the last day, I went to the Iron Pagoda Park without much expectation, but the quest system there was a pleasant surprise. My legs ached from running around for so long!

Today's visit to "Only Henan: A City of Theatrical Fantasy" deeply moved me. In the grand narrative of *The Railway Station Theater*, I witnessed a poignant and intense brotherly bond—Li Shiyi, the elder brother of Li Shiba, harboring an almost tragic tolerance and boundless love for his brother. The horrors of the 1942 Henan famine were reenacted on stage, the desperate scene of starving people scrambling for food was suffocating. When Li Shiyi, desperately seeking some life-saving seeds from his brother, the stationmaster, learned that the price would be his brother's life, his world crumbled instantly. Ultimately, Li Shiba opened the granary to distribute the grain, sacrificing himself in the process. Li Shiyi's madness and breakdown upon learning all this vividly portrayed the struggle of humanity under extreme circumstances. The smaller theater production *Wheat, Oh Wheat* depicts the resilient landscape of the people of Henan, who have depended on the land for thousands of years. Those simple and hardworking farmers, dedicating their lives to the wheat fields, saw wheat not only as food but also as their roots and soul. With the southward advance of the Jin army at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, Henan was forever cut off from the dynastic capital, a historical turning point tinged with desolation and regret. Another short play, "Su Shi's Henan," succinctly portrays the tumultuous life of the literary giant Su Shi in just thirty minutes. From his initial fame through the imperial examinations, to his repeated demotions and fluctuating fortunes, until his eventual pardon but failure to return to the capital Bianjing, where he died and was buried in Henan, his poetry is filled with a magnanimous outlook on life and an optimistic view of hardship. Yet, isn't this also a kind of spiritual transcendence under the pressure of reality? Behind that "forced magnanimity" lies a profound undercurrent of unfulfilled ambition throughout his life. This trip was not merely a theatrical experience, but a profound dialogue with the land, history, and the depths of human nature.

Jiaozuo Yuntai Mountain Scenic Area: Visit the summit of Yuntai Mountain, Zhuyu Peak (1297 meters above sea level), the origin of the saying "Where there are dogwood branches, one less person"; check out the glass walkway at Phoenix Ridge (haha, it's really not scary at all); visit Xiaozhaigou, and explore Tanpu Gorge, Longevity Peach Stone, Golden Dragon Lying on the Waves, Immortal Spring, and Tang King's Sword Testing Stone, etc.

I hired a guide, and the explanation was quite detailed. I gained a better understanding of the official history. I also caught a performance in the afternoon, which was a good experience. And I must say, the restrooms in the scenic area were very clean.

The park is very large and has a Han and Tang Dynasty style. The night views of Mingtang Paradise and Yingtian Gate are charming, and the Yingtian Gate light show is worth seeing. The martial arts field experience project at Jiuzhou Pond has a good design and is suitable for going at night. It is too hot during the day.

During a visit outside of peak season, we mainly experienced the carnivore and grassland animal areas. The animals were very enthusiastic and interactive, which was quite an experience. Then we went to see the monkey and red panda enclosures. The monkey enclosure had glare, making it a bit difficult to see, but the red pandas were adorable. You could pay to interact with and feed them, which was very interesting.

Overall, it was average. The performance of "Tracing the Goddess of Luo River" ​The charm of art is that it makes people shout along and their eyes moisten. There are traces to be found everywhere. The only thing is that I was standing the whole time, which was a bit tiring. It's okay to take pictures, walk around nearby, and read books, but it's not so good for a long time.
