    Kaifeng's Daxiangguo Temple is a charming ancient temple with a history spanning over a thousand years. It was a royal temple during the Northern Song Dynasty and the setting for Lu Zhishen's famous act of uprooting the willow tree in the classic novel *Water Margin*. The temple's architecture is simple and elegant, and the Thousand-Handed and Thousand-Eyed Guanyin statue in the octagonal glazed tile hall is exquisitely crafted. The temple is filled with melodious Buddhist music, combining historical weight with Zen-like tranquility, making it well worth a visit.

    The performances were numerous and excellent! The actors had a very strong sense of conviction, and everything from greeting guests at the entrance to interrogating Chen Shimei was captivating.

    The Baogong Temple is a shrine-like building dedicated to Bao Zheng, showcasing his life and deeds. It's small and simple in layout, consisting of three courtyards. The first serves as the main entrance. The second is the main building, the Baogong Temple. Two portraits of Bao Zheng are displayed here, and the third focuses on clean governance. There's also Baogong Lake in the back.

    The ticket price is excellent value! We used a three-day pass and went for two days. On the first day, we played from the afternoon until almost closing time. There were tons of interactive NPCs, various games, and a fantastic atmosphere. The night view was stunning, and the food and drinks inside were very reasonably priced. I would definitely bring my kids here if I have the chance.

    I've heard about the Guishan Han Tomb for a long time, and I finally got to see it this time. To be honest, if you're just looking at the scenery, it's just average. But if you're interested in the history, then it's definitely worth a visit.
