It's best to visit during the off-season, as you can enjoy the small theater performances at a more relaxed pace without the exhaustion of rushing from one show to another. The most difficult show to get a turn for, the red-faced one, only required a less than 30-minute wait; for most others, arriving a little early ensured a good viewing experience.

It's really good, one of the better ones in the province. It's like a zoo and amusement park complex. There weren't many people on the weekdays, so there was no need to queue. However, there aren't many animals at the moment, and the rides seem a bit noisy. I wonder if they'll disturb the animals?

*The Analects, Yong Ye*: "When Confucius met Nanzi, Zilu was displeased. The Master swore an oath, saying, 'May Heaven punish you for what you have done! May Heaven punish you!'" The painting of Nanzi in *The Sacred Sites* is rather mediocre… This was a beauty who made Confucius exclaim, "I have never seen anyone who loves virtue as much as he loves beauty!" The State of Wei married many beauties from the State of Qi (the famous Zhuang Jiang and Xuan Jiang). Nanzi herself was a princess of the State of Song, so she should be considered a relative of Confucius? *Records of the Grand Historian* The *Annals of Confucius* states: "The wife of Duke Ling of Wei, a woman named Nanzi, sent someone to tell Confucius, 'Gentlemen from all directions who do not wish to be brothers with my lord must see my wife. My wife wishes to see you.' Confucius declined, but was forced to go. The lady was behind a fine curtain. Confucius entered, faced north, and bowed. The lady bowed twice from behind the curtain, her jade pendants jingling softly. Confucius said, 'I had previously refused to see her, but now I return the courtesy.'" Perhaps Nanzi herself wore such exquisite jade pendants back then. (Henan Museum) The main exhibition hall features more exquisite jade pendants unearthed from the Guo State cemetery in Sanmenxia, ​​as well as jade pendants, bracelets, and rings from the Ying State cemetery in Pingdingshan. Nanzi could perhaps be referenced from Zhou Xun's portrayal in the film (however, the costume was too abstract...). Confucius is played by Chow Yun-fat... Yan Hui seems to be played by Ren Quan... The famous Mi Zixia (the one who shared the peach, actually Duke Ling of Wei's male favorite—considering Duke Ling was surrounded by beauties...) doesn't appear in the film.

I had a great experience at Zhengzhou Fantawild Adventure. The park was at a low peak period, so there were very few people — which made the visit even more enjoyable with almost no queues. The weather was perfect, and all the rides were fun and worth trying. It was also very easy to get to the park. We bought our tickets from Trip.com, which was easy, breezy, and cheaper than purchasing on-site. Overall, it was a smooth, enjoyable, and hassle-free visit!

It's a lot of fun, great value for money, and there are shows. It gets quite crowded on weekends. The security check at the entrance isn't like what you see online, where you can't bring this or that. It's just a normal security check, very simple.

Zhengzhou's cultural park is well worth a visit, fully showcasing Henan's long history. The statues of the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor are truly awe-inspiring, and the geological museum inside is incredibly educational.

I just don't understand why the music is so loud that it almost breaks my eardrums. As soon as the child goes in, he starts clamoring to get out. I coaxed him to watch a few shows, but he covered his ears the whole time.

The name "Kang Baiwan" (meaning "Kang the Millionaire") originated from a jest by Empress Dowager Cixi about the Kang family, who were known as the "Living Gods of Wealth in Central China," but the name spread far and wide. The Kang Baiwan Manor, a nationally renowned manor of the wealthy, is now open to the public as a tourist attraction, showcasing a Ming and Qing dynasty manor complex. Facing the Luo River and backed by Mount Mang, the manor's feng shui is undoubtedly auspicious, and the decades-long inheritance of wealth is truly a remarkable story. The manor is not only vast but also incredibly complex. Courtyards connect to courtyards, main roads to side paths, winding and twisting, even revealing secret passages leading up the mountain and hidden treasure vaults—a truly eye-opening experience. There are also performances every day at 11 am, offering a deeper understanding of the history of the Republic of China era, which is quite moving.

Construction was underway everywhere, with green corrugated iron sheets surrounding the area, making the experience less pleasant than usual. However, it was still worthwhile as a place to take a walk and see the animals along the way. I strongly recommend going after 2 PM; I went around 12 PM, and the animals were all taking their afternoon nap.
