Highlights
Day 1: Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden
Morning departure to Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden with your guide; ample time for photos and the highlights; local lunch; hotel in the evening.
Attraction: Today's itinerary includes Qingming Riverside Landscape Garden. Qingming River Garden recreates the 'Along the River' painting—a Song-dynasty theme park with a rainbow bridge, street life and live shows of old Bianjing
Friendly tips: Plenty of walking—wear comfortable shoes and pack a light jacket; bring your ID and stay with your guide, noting the meeting time and place. Traveler feedback — Daytime streets feel immersive; the night show divides opinion and is pricey—choose by budget.

Day 2: Mount Song
Morning departure to Mount Song with your guide; ample time for photos and the highlights; local lunch; hotel in the evening.
Attraction: Today's itinerary includes Mount Song. Mount Song, the central peak of China's Five Sacred Mountains, unites Confucian, Buddhist and Taoist sites; its 'Centre of Heaven and Earth' complex is a UNESCO site. Hike to Junji Peak and visit Songyang Academy and Zhongyue Temple
Friendly tips: The route includes mountain sections with big temperature swings and many steps—wear a light jacket and non-slip shoes; bring your ID and stay with your guide, noting the meeting time and place. Traveler feedback — Mount Song is worth the trip; slow down and follow the guide for the best details. Practical note — Mountain weather flips fast—pack a windproof layer; wear non-slip shoes, skip a few shots rather than twist an ankle.
Day 3: Red Flag Canal
Morning departure to Red Flag Canal with your guide; ample time for photos and the highlights; local lunch; hotel in the evening.
Attraction: Today's itinerary includes Red Flag Canal. The Red Flag Canal in Linzhou, Henan, is a 1960s cliffside 'man-made sky river' over 1,500km long—hailed as a wonder, a symbol of perseverance
Friendly tips: Plenty of walking—wear comfortable shoes and pack a light jacket; bring your ID and stay with your guide, noting the meeting time and place. Traveler feedback — A spiritual landmark of perseverance; the exhibition narration is worth hearing to understand the history. Practical note — Eat where locals queue, not at the scenic gate; compare prices before buying souvenirs—supermarkets are often cheaper.
