How to add Kaifeng or Yuntai Mountain en route?

[Direct conclusion] 【Kaifeng is ~1.5–2h east by rail/self-drive—add 1 day for Qingming Riverside Garden + Iron Pagoda. Key points to keep in mind: 1. Yuntai is ~2h NE in Jiaozuo—add 1 day for Red Stone Gorge + waterfalls. 2. Both are same-day return or one night from Luoyang; put at the trip's tail.】 Extension: Planning: Three reminders: Yuntai is huge; 1 day covers core (Red Stone + Tanpu) only—don't greed all. 3. Kaifeng night (Qingming iron-flower show) worth an overnight. 4. Count drive time between cities; don't let transit eat play.
