Anyang Yinruins & Red Flag Canal 6-Day Tour (Senior · from Luoyang)
From Luoyang | 6 days 5 nights | Shopping-free, relaxed pace | Anyang Special Line
Highlights
Day 1 Arrival Luoyang | Yinruins Museum
This is the arrival day: guests are met at the station/airport and transferred to the hotel with a brief pre-trip briefing. Early arrivals may explore nearby freely; the itinerary starts tomorrow.
Day 2 Red Flag Canal
The Red Flag Canal is the 'Artificial Tianhe' carved by Linzhou people in the 1960s — 1,500+ km of cliffside channel, a monument to self-reliance. Youth Cave and the diversion garden tell its story.
Day 3 Taihang Grand Canyon
The Taihang Grand Canyon spans Shanxi-Hebei-Henan, with the Red Flag Canal cut through the cliffs and sights like Peach Blossom Valley. Scenic shuttles reveal dramatic gorges best in spring and autumn.
On the 4th day, Linzhou slate rock
Shibanpin town in Linzhou's Taihang gorge is a red-stone hamlet and plein-air painting base beloved by artists. Walk the flower street, visit Peach Blossom Valley — a slow, scenic Taihang retreat.
Day 5 Youli City
Youli City in Tangyin, Anyang, is where King Wen of Zhou is said to have composed the I Ching. The Yi-platform ruins and steles make it the cradle of the Book of Changes, paired with Yue Fei Temple.
Day 6 Yuan Shikai Mausoleum | Transfer
Day 6 follows the itinerary with a guide explaining local sights; tickets and transport included, subject to the final schedule.
