Is a one-day trip to Kaifeng worth it?

[Direct conclusion] Very worthwhile. Key points to keep in mind: 1. Kaifeng is only a 1-1.5 hour drive from Luoyang/Zhengzhou, with a rich history and culture. 2. Recommendation: Qingming Shanghe Garden (must see for large-scale live performances) → Kaifeng Prefecture (Judge Bao Gong) → Daxiangguo Temple → Gulou Night Market (filled with soup buns and stir fried liangfen). 3. There are more folk performances on weekends or holidays. 4. It is recommended to schedule the cultural finale on the 3rd to 4th day of the trip to Henan. Note: With kids or elderly travelers, a slower pace beats more sightseeing spots.
