Henan 4-Day Tour | Luoyang Depth+Zhengzhou Museum, Laojun Mountain Sunrise+Longmen White Horse+Henan Museum

Preferring Luoyang but not wanting to miss out on the 4th of Henan Museum: 3 days in depth in Luoyang (Laojun Mountain+Longmen+Baima Temple+Luobo), 1 day in Zhengzhou to supplement the museum+Yellow River culture, with high cultural concentration and not too much mountain climbing.

How to choose the number of days

The most comfortable configuration for watching the sunrise of Laojun Mountain, Longmen Gate, Baima Temple, and Luoyang Museum is to give Luoyang 3 whole days. Zhengzhou only supplements the museum and the Yellow River to avoid Zhengzhou occupying 2 days and affecting the schedule of Laojun Mountain.

Laojun Mountain Golden Summit

On the first day in Luoyang (Longmen Grottoes+Luoyang Museum)

In the morning, Longmen Grottoes (90 yuan) will enter the northwest service area, with a focus on the Lushena Buddha of Fengxian Temple.

Pickup was on time and the service was great. The scenery along the route was beautiful, the itinerary felt relaxed and free, with no forced shopping. Overall a very good experience. — group traveler
From booking onward there was a dedicated person coordinating and briefing us on trip notes in advance. Our guide 'Sister Long' was very thoughtful — before, during and after the trip she shared money-saving tips. We will recommend Junwei to friends and family next time. — family traveler
First time in Zhengzhou, everything unfamiliar, but the experience was excellent. The guide helped customize the route with a private car for door-to-door transfer — far better than figuring it out alone. — out-of-town traveler
Laojunshan after the rain is truly worth a visit for everyone — I'll definitely go again when I can. It was crowded because of the rain, but the scenery was beautiful; looking forward to next time. — Laojunshan visitor
