Zhengzhou 3-Day Tour: Chongdu Valley & Millennium City Park

Enter Chongdugou early in the morning, take advantage of the cool weather to walk along the bamboo forest trail and view the waterfalls, suitable for leisurely parent-child tours; in the afternoon, enjoy free activities, such as taking extra photos or resting, and return in the evening. Don’t miss the main viewing platform—Chongdugou’s sea of clouds and sunrise are the highlights, and waking up half an hour earlier is well worth it.

Attraction Introduction: This itinerary includes a stop at Chongdugou. Chongdugou is in Luanchuan and is famous for its vast bamboo forests, cascading waterfalls, and Western Henan farming scenery. The Jinji River and Dicui River areas each have their own waterfall groups. You can stay in farmhouse accommodations and taste wild mountain vegetables. It is one of the few 'Jiangnan-style water town' summer retreat and leisure destinations, suitable for leisurely parent-child tours, with Jinji River, Dicui River, and the Water Curtain Fairy Palace being the most worth seeing in detail.

Tips: There are many mountain paths and stair sections, with obvious temperature differences between the top and bottom and plenty of steps, so remember to bring a jacket and choose non-slip shoes. Don’t rush on uphill or downhill paths, walk steadily. Carry your ID with you, stay close to the tour guide, and remember the meeting times and places. Many tourists say that Chongdugou is more worth staying than they expected, listen carefully to the explanations and leave time for taking good photos. Practically speaking, Chongdugou is known for its water scenery and bamboo forests, making it a pleasant summer retreat; on rainy days, the trails are slippery, so wear non-slip shoes.

Today's travel journey through time: Follow the guide to understand 'Dreams of Old Tokyo,' focusing on the live water performances and folk parades; return in the evening. Allocate half a day to leisurely explore, following the 'main storyline first, then detailed viewing' plan, and schedule the guide's explanations during the tours led by the guide.

Attraction Introduction: Upon arriving at this stop, it is a Song Dynasty cultural theme park built based on 'Along the River During the Qingming Festival.' The Hongqiao Bridge, city streets, and live performances recreate the bustling scene of Northern Song Bianjing, suitable for immersive visits in Hanfu. Among these, the Hongqiao Bridge, Bian River transport, and the live performance 'The Great Song: Dreams of Old Tokyo' are the most worth detailed attention.

Warm Tips: There is a lot of walking throughout the tour, so it is recommended to wear supportive sneakers and bring a light jacket according to the weather; carry your ID and other valid documents, follow the guide at all times, and remember the meeting points. Based on actual experience, having a heavy lunch can make you feel lethargic in the afternoon; carry a water bottle and drink in small amounts frequently. Based on personal experience, this is a Song Dynasty-themed live-action park, and the evening show 'The Great Song: Dreams of Old Tokyo' is worth watching. It is recommended to book tickets in advance.
