Top 50 Night Attractions in Henan

Well, I can understand having a large number of people, as that's beyond human control. But the sightseeing buses are truly baffling. Their usual money-grabbing tactics significantly diminish the experience. They insist on building parking lots all the way there and then having the buses transport them. This makes such a famous tourist attraction feel incredibly inadequate (don't say things like "since you're already there, just have fun," tourism is a comprehensive experience). In this respect, the attractions in Kaifeng are much better.

A large attraction with plenty of shows. Beautifully designed and definitely worth the price.

The scenery is beautiful, but the restrooms in the scenic area are terrible. Management is inadequate, and the ticket sellers at the windows have poor service. If the restrooms and safety measures in the scenic area could be improved, it would be perfect.

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.

Director Wang Chaoge's "Only Henan"! Without relying on popular celebrities, you created the most moving stage with earthen walls and wheat fields. The tragic scene of dying to leave seeds in the train station theater, and the cross-temporal dialogue between historical figures in the fantasy city theater—every scene is both visually stunning and a spiritual cleansing. You have shown us that cultural confidence is the ultimate form of entertainment.

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.

Having grown up watching "Justice Bao," how could I miss the Kaifeng Prefecture, the residence of Judge Bao, when visiting Kaifeng! Don't miss the performances inside! The opening ceremony at 9 AM is incredibly immersive, the "Judge Bao's Case" drama in the main hall is highly realistic, and the "The Case of the Chariot at the Gate" holographic theater is technologically advanced. Our group dressed up as an empress, Nezha, a female knight… we couldn't even tell the dynasty anymore! We just traveled through time and space, causing chaos in Kaifeng Prefecture. I wonder if Judge Bao would scold us "monsters" [laughing emoji]. We enjoyed the performances and took lots of photos – so much fun! After visiting Kaifeng Prefecture, head straight to the adjacent Judge Bao Temple. In the evening, take a cruise on the Grand Song Dynasty Imperial River, and then head to the Xisi Night Market for soup dumplings. If you have the energy, you can also visit the Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden or the Wansui Mountain Martial Arts City to see the evening fireworks and intangible cultural heritage performances like iron-smelting! 🎫Tickets: Adult ticket 65 yuan, student half price 32 yuan. Our 60 yuan Kaifeng annual pass was a great deal, offering a 30% discount on non-holidays and valid at 16 other scenic spots. 🚗Transportation: Super convenient transportation. Take tourist bus L606 directly; parking is very convenient near the South Gate.

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.

When traveling to Henan with kids, besides visiting the famous "Only Henan" theater fantasy city, don't miss the nearby Jianye Film Town. It offers both retro filming and interactive experiences, with the immersive performance on Dehua Street being particularly eye-catching and educational! 🎬 Must-Experiences: 1️⃣ Dehua Street is a must-see (remember to buy tickets and reserve your time slot when you buy them). We strolled through it according to our reservation time. The street recreates the old Zhengzhou commercial district, with its cobblestone streets and retro shops creating a fantastic atmosphere. The "Journey Through Dehua Street" performance has realistic special effects. Arrive 30 minutes early to get seats in the middle; there are even stunt performers appearing in the two central aisles – the whole family was captivated. 2️⃣ Film Workshop + Time Capsule: The kids loved the green screen flying and sound effects in the Film Workshop, while parents enjoyed the nostalgic old objects in the Time Capsule, relaxing in the air conditioning – super comfortable! 3️⃣ Live Performances: "The Swordsmen of the Central Plains" features thrilling explosions and wire work; "Battle of Tai Chi" showcases martial arts culture; and the evening immersive performance "A Journey of Drama" offers maximum interaction and stunning nighttime views. Evening shows also include intangible cultural heritage performances like iron flower making and fire kettle demonstrations – definitely worth checking out! 4️⃣ There are also some smaller performances 🎭 like air spraying, which have a distinct northern cultural flavor. You can move around and watch them according to the schedule on the mini-program. The venue isn't very large, and it's not hard to find once you know the map. However, for popular Chinese dramas, it's best to arrive at least half an hour early to secure a seat, especially during holidays. 🍲 Food Experience: We chose "Beijing Memories," where food stalls offer a variety of Henan specialties like Puyang Zhuangmo and "One-Strand Noodles." Find a seat near the stage, enjoy the food while watching the performances, satisfy the whole family's tastes, and relax comfortably. Alternative options include 80 Memory Restaurant (nostalgic style) or Tai Chi Noodle Shop (kung fu beef noodles), with street-side hot tofu and fresh-cut fruit for a quick energy boost. 🚗 Transportation Guide: 1️⃣ By Car/Taxi: Navigate to "Jianye·Film Town," a 40-minute drive. Ample parking is available, making it convenient for families with children and luggage. Taxis in Henan are inexpensive. For those who prefer not to drive, taxis are a convenient way to reach nearby attractions and guesthouses. 2️⃣ Public Transportation: Take the subway shuttle line 4 or the Zhengkai intercity bus and then a taxi. Navigate to "Film Town Ticket Office" to avoid getting lost. 🎠 Surrounding Area and Other Tiles: 1️⃣ A 20-minute drive from "Only Henan·Drama Fantasy City," and not far from nearby Haichang Ocean Park and Fantawild Adventure. Consider staying a few days in a nearby themed guesthouse. The surrounding area is mostly comprised of guesthouses, offering affordable prices and convenient transportation. 2️⃣ The retro costumes rented in the movie town are mainly in the style of the Republic of China era, with some Tang and Han dynasty styles as well. Those who like the Republic of China style can try it (those who have previewed the Jiangnan area and Hengdian Chedun Film and Television Base might not be as interested). The scenes there will produce better photos. Personally, I feel that the Tang and Han dynasty costumes are not as cheap and exquisite as those in Kaifeng and Luoyang, but since we're already here, we might as well immerse ourselves in the local culture!
