It is a tourist area that was built on the barren hills by the Yellow River in the 1970s. It is located on the bank of the Yellow River 20 kilometers northwest of Zhengzhou, the capital of Henan Province.
This is the starting point of the "hanging river" on the ground and the dividing line between the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River. It is one of the best places to enjoy the scenery of the Yellow River.
The scenic area has built several major attractions, including the Yan and Huang Emperors, Wulong Peak, Yueshan Temple, Dayu Mountain, Geological Museum, Yellow River Stele Forest, and the First Yellow River Bridge.
In addition to scenic spots, there are also recreational facilities such as the Yellow River Cableway, amphibious hovercraft, and Wandefu Slide for you to experience.

The Zhengzhou Yellow River Scenic Area is located 30 kilometers northwest of Huiji District, Zhengzhou City. The scenic area is open from 9 am to 6 pm. The general ticket is 60 yuan, which does not include the Yellow River Grand View and the round-trip cable car. The Yanhuang Emperor Statue Scenic Area was completed on April 18, 2007. It is located on the Yanhuang Square. The overall height is 106 meters. It is built on the mountain and faces the Yellow River. The Yanhuang Emperor refers to the two tribal leaders Yan Emperor and Huang Emperor in the ethnic mythology. The taller one in the sculpture is Yan Emperor and the shorter one is Huang Emperor. They are made of real stones from Taihang Mountain.
The first scenic spot in Zhengzhou was arranged in the Yellow River Scenic Area, thinking that the morning time would be relatively cool, and the afternoon time would be reserved for the Henan Provincial Museum. It is about 30 kilometers from the city center. There are few cars on the road and few people at the scenic spots. Except for the heat, everything is quite comfortable. This is the starting point of the "hanging river" on the ground of the Yellow River and the end of the Loess Plateau. It is located in the core part of the birthplace of the Chinese nation. It is the leading scenic spot of the Yellow River Tour. Currently, there are five major scenic spots open, including Wulong Peak, Yueshan Temple, Camel Ridge, Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang, and Xinghai Lake. But I was still a little disappointed when I actually came. The scenic spot was empty. Except for the statues of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang, which were quite eye-catching, there was nothing very special. I remembered the description of the Stone Forest by the local people in Kunming. I would regret not coming, and I would regret it even more if I came... Since I came, I might as well come and take a look, learn a little about history and geography, and I won't leave any regrets for myself.
The first scenic spot in Zhengzhou Yellow River Scenic Area is the Yellow River and Peacock Garden. The Yellow River is really a pool of yellow water. The Peacock Garden is very large. According to the administrator, there are more than 600 peacocks in total. And many of them have plump feathers and bright colors like this one.
Nothing... I won't come again. The tickets and cable cars are not cheap, and you have to walk a long way.
It was already late when we arrived, but the Emperors Yan and Huang were still very imposing. It was a pity that there was no viewing platform by the Yellow River. I brought my daughter here to see it and broaden her horizons!
The photos are not retouched, but the overall feeling is good, the scenic area is magnificent. It is not a weekend or holiday, so there are not many people, just in time for the sacrifice ceremony of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang
The water of the Yellow River has dried up. I climbed a lot of mountains. It's just so-so.
Bad attitude, chaotic management, and extremely poor experience.
Rating one star, it is far from the city, the tickets are expensive, the area is scattered, the scenic area is only equivalent to a forest park, the concept of the Yellow River is very awkward, there is a monument with two words "Yellow River", the water is shallow and slow, it is only equivalent to the edge of a small ditch. The rest is big, big square, big stone sculpture, telling big stories. There is also a glass plank road that charges tickets only after climbing up the mountain. The plank road of less than 20 meters charges 10 yuan, which makes many tourists in a dilemma. Generally speaking, you will feel that the Yellow River is eclipsed in front of people, and you will have an inexplicable sense of superiority overlooking nature. It is suitable for those who have nothing to do and time-consuming and stair climbing enthusiasts.
I took the train from Zhengzhou Railway Station to the Yellow River Scenic Area Station, which was 2/3 kilometers away from the ticket office. I didn't take the three-wheeled vehicle, but fortunately there were shared bicycles outside the station. The main entrance ticket was 60 yuan, and the electronic ticket was 10% off. I bought the scenic area sightseeing bus for 20 yuan and the Yellow River cableway for 50 yuan. I followed the route of the sightseeing bus and took a tour. The Geological Museum is good, but unfortunately I didn't have much time. The Yellow River cableway was boring. After going up, there were projects developed by the locals themselves, such as horseback riding, and there was another one that required a car ride. There was a scenic spot 4 kilometers away, but I didn't go there and took the cableway back directly. I had to walk a wild road to Yueshan Temple, which seemed to be entering the village. When I came back, I found shared bicycles outside the bathroom again. I rode to the Yellow River Scenic Area Railway Station. If the time was right, it was still very convenient to take the train.
The worst attraction, charging everywhere, and super boring. There is a construction site under the cable car. After getting off the cable car, I arrived at a village. It was shabby and the road was muddy. I didn't go to see it and took the cable car back. There is nothing by the Yellow River, just a shabby abandoned pier, and a wire is pulled to the Yellow River. Can this attraction be ranked first? Waste my day, I might as well sleep.
This is the worst tourist attraction so far. There is no water platform by the Yellow River. You can only look at it from a distance, or walk down the steep slope by yourself. You walk in the mud with one foot deep and one foot shallow. There is no scenery. There are large mammal feces on the road. I saw it four or five times along the way. It should be horse feces. The construction is underway next to Dayu Lei, which is full of mud. The hovercraft is average and expensive, costing 80, but it is already the best value in the park. The cable car is the worst, 40, and there is no scenery at all. It costs another 30 to go up and take a car. The road is broken and full of potholes. Look at the Yellow River demarcation monument, which is also in a bad state. The iron ladder in the middle has decayed and broken. It takes no more than one minute to look at the Yellow River from a distance, and you can turn back. The statue of Dayu is very average, and you can walk quickly. Then go to the glass plank road, which is at most a dozen meters, and it costs another 10 yuan. It is not a canyon below, but a road, and it is not high. Then look at the statue of Yanhuang. Although it is majestic, I really don’t have the interest to climb it. What a waste of time, expensive and no view at all.
But deep love cannot overcome shallow fate! I hope you can see the scenery along the way in your busy days
The place is remote, the tickets are expensive, and there is nothing to see inside. That's it. It feels good to quietly watch by the Yellow River.
total waste of time, the long journey to the site was not worth it.
I'm determined not to go to the Yellow River, but I can give up this time. I took bus No. 16 from the Minggong Road Taikang Road bus stop in the center of Zhengzhou to the end point. The ticket was 5 yuan, and I paid with WeChat! Today I went to buy tickets, and the uncle's attitude was okay. The ticket to the scenic spot was 60 yuan, and there were tickets for the scenic spot. It seems that the national defense base costs 20 yuan, and the glass plank road also costs 10 yuan! After entering the scenic spot, I took a sightseeing bus for 45 yuan, and I ran through all the scenic spots on the mountain! I went to ride a horse, 30 yuan per circle, and after riding a circle, they asked me to ride another circle, saying 20 yuan per circle, I insisted and didn't ride again, and then they gave up, fortunately they didn't force me! I wanted to take that small yacht to tour the Yellow River, but it requires more than 3 people to get on the boat, so I had to give up!
The Yellow River Langdi Power Station is spectacular. Really nice.
When you come to Zhengzhou, you can say that it is a must-visit place to appreciate the charm of the Yellow River...
Taking an air cushion boat to cruise the Yellow River, you can reach a small island on the dividing line between the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, and you can see Taohuayu opposite. The ditch next to Taohuayu to the west is the "Honggou" between Chuhe and Han. Huge busts of Emperor Yan and Huang stand by the river, and Dayu also left his footprints here when he controlled the flood. Next to them, three railway bridges span the Yellow River, spanning a century of history (completed in 1905, 1960, and 2013 respectively). The great man left a sentence here: "We must do a good job in the affairs of the Yellow River."
Bad review, bad review, except for the ticket, what are the hovercraft and cableway? The hovercraft just goes in and stays on an island for 15 minutes, then returns the same way. After we took the cableway up, we were told that it was under repair. We couldn't see the statue of Dayu at all, which was a rip-off. Did I come here for fun? Only the statues of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang were good, the others were boring and especially dirty! There's really no need to spend hundreds of dollars to play here, just buy a ticket to see the statues of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang.
It’s right over there at Mangshan, the whole scenic area is well built!
It’s just average. If you haven’t seen the Yellow River, you can come and see it. The others are all man-made attractions and the ticket prices are quite expensive.
Overall it's just so-so, only the hovercraft is worth a ride
Poor travel service
The Yellow River Scenic Area is very far from downtown Zhengzhou. You can get there by taking Bus No. 16 from Zhengzhou Railway Station. The statues of Emperors Yan and Huang are very spectacular, but the tickets are a bit expensive.
Take bus 16 directly to the Yellow River Scenic Area. It took me about 50 minutes from the city and there was no traffic jam on the road.
We are all descendants of Yan and Huang. The statues of Emperors Yan and Huang that I had seen on TV before finally made me feel like I was there. You can take a battery car to visit various scenic spots. You can take a seat at each battery car station with your ticket, which is very convenient. If you need to hike for a day, it is not necessary. You can go up the hill to the statues of the two emperors, but the steps are not easy to walk. I strongly recommend taking an airboat to the Yellow River. Although it is still different from the surging Yellow River water I imagined, it is still very exciting to be so close to the mother river for the first time; the airboat will take you to a small island in the middle and come back after a while. On the way back, the airboat will explain how to sell Yellow River silt, which costs 10 yuan per bottle. I suggest you fill it with bottles when you are on the island.
A place I often visit and the first choice for traveling around Zhengzhou.
The environment is good, the order of the scenic area is good, and most importantly, there are shared bicycles, which is amazing! I didn't want to take a battery car to see the sights, and it cost 20 yuan. I originally wanted to walk around, but I accidentally discovered the shared bicycles, this omnipresent artifact, halfway through. I walked around the entire scenic area happily and conveniently, haha~
The Yellow River Scenic Area is a national 4A scenic area, a national scenic spot, and a national geological park. It is located between Zhengzhou and Xinxiang, but you can only get there by bus No. 16 from Zhengzhou Railway Station! It's a rip-off! (But it seems that Zhengzhou has a direct subway to the scenic area)
I rode a shared bicycle to visit the scenic area, which was quite relaxing. The scenic area is also a water supply area. The peacock garden inside is well built. The peacock spread its tail right next to me, which made me very excited. There is also the yellow water of the mother river. The overall scenery is beautiful.
I went there on the May Day holiday. It was very hot and sunny, and there were a lot of people. Fortunately, there was a steam spray on the Yanhuang statue to cool down, and there was a stall selling ice water. When I arrived at the Yellow River Scenic Area on the first day, I wanted to turn around and go home. I really can't go there on a statutory holiday when the weather is hot.
Simple, generous, solemn and serious. No matter what scenic spot it is, it is more comfortable to go when there are fewer people.
It is located on the bank of the Yellow River, 20 kilometers northwest of Zhengzhou, the capital of Henan Province, with the towering Yue Mountain in the south and the surging Yellow River in the north. It is a national scenic spot, a national AAAA-level tourist attraction, and a national water conservancy scenic area.
It is quite far from the city center. We drove for about 40 minutes and took a hovercraft to enter the Yellow River. It was quite fun. There was a border between Chu and Han, motorcycles, horses, statues of Emperor Yan and Huang, the statue of the Yellow River Mother, and the Nine Cauldrons. You must take a hovercraft to feel it.
After the meal, we went to the Yellow River Scenic Area (there is a direct bus). The bus really made me wait for a long time! I swayed all the way to the terminal. The bustling tourists made me feel a lot more relaxed. There was no need to queue up to buy tickets, and there was no need to be crowded on the tour bus. It was no longer a matter of you looking at me and me looking at you to see the beautiful scenery! It was a pleasure to really see the beautiful scenery! The student ticket price was entered, and there was a sightseeing bus. Everyone would be asked to get off at the next attraction, which saved a lot of time. If you walked the whole way, you probably wouldn't be able to leave the park within half a day. You can only follow the attractions marked on the ticket all the way, and you can't go back.
It is a national scenic spot and national AAAA-level tourist area, located on the bank of the Yellow River 20 kilometers northwest of Zhengzhou, the capital of Henan Province, with the towering Yue Mountain in the south and the surging Yellow River in the north. The majestic river scenery and the long-standing Yellow River culture, as well as the starting point of the "hanging river" on the ground of the Yellow River, the end point of the Loess Plateau, and the dividing line between the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River, form a broad, magnificent, magnificent and beautiful natural landscape. It is located in the core part of the birthplace of the Chinese nation, with rich historical sites and profound cultural heritage.
Ticket price is 60 yuan per person, children under 1.4 meters are free of charge
Famous attractions: Yanhuang Emperor Square, Wulong Peak Scenic Area, Yueshan Temple
The recommended playing time is 3-4 hours
Best season to visit: Spring and Autumn
I went there to see the Yellow River and the statues of Emperors Yan and Huang with my own eyes. Unfortunately, it was the dry season and the Yellow River was not as interesting as I had imagined. However, the huge statues of Emperors Yan and Huang were quite shocking.
If the weather is good and you have children with you, you can spend almost a whole day in the scenic area.
It was almost dusk when we arrived at the Yellow River Scenic Area. Although I always thought it was shameful to take a sightseeing bus in the scenic area, the scenic area was too large and we could only take a 20-yuan per-person sightseeing bus for efficient sightseeing. The first stop was Xinghai Lake. Xinghai Lake was named after the revolutionary musician Xian Xinghai. In order to commemorate him and the majestic "Yellow River Cantata" that we were familiar with in our childhood, people named the Yellow River here Xinghai Lake.
The Yellow River Scenic Area is very large. I personally prefer to walk slowly along the green
The Yellow River Scenic Area is very large. I personally prefer to walk slowly along the green
Most of the landscapes are man-made, but it is a place worth visiting in Zhengzhou.
Tickets are 60 yuan, hovercraft is 80 yuan, slide is 20 yuan, and cableway is 40 yuan. You can buy a combined ticket to save a little money. There are five hills in total. I only climbed the one with the statue. There are also statues of Dayu controlling the flood. There are bells and sculptures of ancient celebrities on Yanhuang Square. The hovercraft flies in the water and mud of the Yellow River and stops at the sandbar in the middle. You can ride a sand motorcycle or a horse. It takes 40 minutes to go around. The cableway and slide go to different hills. Go up by the cableway and go down by the slide. There are some small fishermen's restaurants by the Yellow River where you can eat. If you want to play, you can play all day.
The guide says that the Yellow River Scenic Area is the most beautiful area in Zhengzhou. . . . .
The most beautiful scenic spot??? The most beautiful scenic spot!!!
However, what we saw was this: strong winds, the park had not been built yet, large tracts of loess, and yellow sand everywhere. . .
I went there wearing a white shirt, but when I came back it was blown into a yellow shirt.
The Yellow River Scenic Area is something from a long time ago in my memory. I only remember going there a few times when I was a child, and I still remember the statue of the Mother Yellow River.
When I revisited the place many years later, I had my beloved wife and son. We were a happy family, and there was singing and laughter as we walked.
On that day, the sky was particularly blue and the flowers were particularly fragrant... There were many little stories along the way, many of which were not recorded with a camera, but flowed in my heart.
It is really far from Zhengzhou Railway Station. There is only one bus to the scenic spot, which takes one and a half hours with 20 to 30 stops. The ticket price is 5 yuan, and there is no direct bus. There are many people in the scenic spot, but they still send buses every half an hour. The departure point of the railway station is very chaotic and difficult to find. There are many people and few cars at the entrance of the scenic spot, and the queue is very long. The scenic spot is named after the Yellow River, but it is mainly about climbing the hills of the two emperors Yan and Huang. There is a muddy path beside the Yellow River. At least a long embankment should be built.
The scenery is great, but because it is off-season, some places cannot be visited, which is a bit regrettable
The itinerary for the third day was also very simple, which was the Yellow River Scenic Area. The scenic area was also far away from the city, and it took about an hour to get there by bus No. 16.
The weather in Zhengzhou was not good. The smog was extremely bad. It was gray everywhere. The entrance fee to the tourist area was 60 yuan, and it was 54 yuan if you booked it online in advance.
It is recommended to take an electric car here, as there are too many scenic spots and walking is not suitable.
It's really far. I took the 16-minute tour bus from the train station. It was really from the starting station to the terminal. And it was hard to wait for the bus for almost half an hour. It took about an hour. The ticket price was 5 yuan. The entrance fee to the scenic area was 60 yuan. The student ID card was half price. As soon as I entered the gate, there were statues of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang. The cable car inside went up the mountain.
~You can go to see the statue of Dayu~If you want to see the Yellow River~there is no need to go up the mountain~There were very few people when we went~We took a long detour to find the Yellow River~You can take a speedboat~30 yuan round trip per person~Take you around the Yellow River~It's quite exciting~
There are not many scenic spots to visit in Zhengzhou. The Yellow River Scenic Area is about 30 kilometers away from the city. It is said that most taxis are unwilling to go there by meter. You can take bus No. 16 from Zhengzhou Railway Station to the Yellow River Scenic Area for 5 yuan. The journey takes about an hour. Zhengzhou is still very congested. If there are many people and time is tight, you can also charter a car. It cost 130 for three of us, and the driver waited for us for 3 and a half hours. This is a bit expensive, but you can consider it if you are in a hurry. The ticket is 60 yuan, and there is a battery car (yellow) for 20 per person. You can get on and off at several scenic spots at any time. The cable car is 40 per person. If you want to go to the upstream and downstream dividing line, you have to take another company's battery car (green), 20 per person, which can be negotiated. In the end, it cost 40 for three of us. The total cost is really not cheap. If the weather is bad, it is not recommended to come here.
I came here just because I was passing by and changing trains. After eight hours, I wanted to visit the nearby attractions. It is very convenient to take a bus. I can take bus No. 16 directly from the train station. Unfortunately, this bus takes more than an hour from the starting station to the terminal. However, the scenery in the scenic area is good. I was shocked by the second brother of Yanhuang. The scenic area is also very large. There are five key scenic spots in total, each with unique scenery and profound cultural heritage.
After passing the ticket office, walk along this road. It is very big inside. If you want to climb the mountain, you can spend a whole day there. We thought the weather was too hot, so we only walked at the foot of the mountain. The scenic area is simple in structure and has signposts, so you don't have to worry about getting lost.
It is a famous but not very good scenic spot. The Yellow River is like a pool of stagnant water, and all the scenery is artificially built. It is not fun at all. The only thing that is quite shocking in terms of momentum is the statue of Yanhuang, which is the only highlight.
The water of the Yellow River is really yellow. Because it is in the shallows, you can swim, but you can't go too far. There are no other facilities around, and there is occasional wind and sand.
When I went there at the end of July, the flow of the Yellow River was low, so I didn't see the spectacular scene I imagined. As a park, the statues of Emperors Yan and Huang are the first choice for taking photos. The scenic area is a certain distance from the city. A few years ago, bus No. 16 was opened, starting from the railway station and going directly to the scenic area. This bus line is a bit long and the frequency is slightly less. You need to be patient when waiting for the bus, and you also need to be patient when you get on the bus. There are three ways to sell tickets: tickets or tickets + cableway or tickets + slide. It is recommended to buy a round-trip cableway ticket, so that you can walk to all the scenic spots under the mountain, and then take the cableway up and down Dayu Mountain (in fact, there is nothing on the mountain, just a viewing platform for looking out and a statue of Dayu).
I went there specifically when I went traveling in 2014. Because I felt sorry for my classmates paying for the tickets, I did not visit any scenic spots, but instead visited places in the lower reaches of the Yellow River that did not require tickets.
The Yellow River Scenic Area, but it is very difficult to see the Yellow River, you have to go around a big circle. I feel that this scenic area does not highlight the Yellow River, but the two emperors Yan and Huang.
From the train station, you can take bus No. 16 to the scenic area, which is 5 yuan and very convenient. It takes more than an hour. The ticket is 60 yuan, 54 yuan online. Personally, I feel that it is not very free, so you don’t have to come [snickering]. It is all artificially built. It looks the same wherever you go by the Yellow River. The mountains and rivers are not very beautiful. If you are afraid of being tired, you can take a battery car, 20 yuan/person/day. That’s it. . .
The fish in the Yellow River are nothing special. The Yanhuang Emperor Scenic Area is nice. There are many beggars in the City God Temple.
I came here when I was in primary school, but my impression of it is vague. Now I see the Yellow River again. The beach of the Yellow River is so soft, with soft fine sand.
The water comes from the sky. Here, the Yellow River has restored the kindness of a mother river. It does not have the momentum of rushing down. It is hard to imagine that big Yellow River carp grow in this water. I hope I will have the opportunity to go to Hukou Waterfall in the future to see the momentum of the Yellow River!
The Yellow River Scenic Area is the starting point of the Yellow River's "hanging river", the end point of the Loess Plateau, and the dividing line between the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River.
The Zhengzhou Yellow River Scenic Area has a broad view, and the train passing over the Yellow River Bridge makes the scenic area dynamic.
The Yellow River Scenic Spots. I think those who have not seen the Yellow River can go and see it. You can ride a horse by the Yellow River for 20 yuan per person. After eating and walking, you can eat on the local residents' boat. If you eat on the boat that can see the Yellow River, you can eat and sightsee at night. It is very beautiful. However, you must prevent mosquito bites in summer. There are really many mosquitoes. When you come here, you may want to try the Yellow River carp. The fish head can be boiled into soup, and the fish body can be braised. The scenery is delicious.
According to my friend, there are several main attractions here. The first one is the stone sculpture of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang. The statue is one of the most majestic sculptures in China. It is built on the mountain, with the entire 82-meter-high Xiangyang Mountain as the body, and an 18-meter-high head on the top of the mountain, with a total height of 100 meters. When I went there, it seemed that they were also preparing for the ancestor worship ceremony. I guess this will also be a major venue when the ceremony is held.
It's not a long way to the Yellow River by electric car, but the air is not very good that day and I can't see far away. I secretly groaned in my heart, wondering if I can see the nine bends of the Yellow River when I climb up.
Here's some practical information. If you're coming from downtown Zhengzhou, you can take bus No. 16 from the train station to get there directly, but it takes a long time, so budget enough time. The tour will take half a day.
The Yellow River Scenic Area is located 30 kilometers northwest of Zhengzhou City. There is a direct bus to the Yellow River Scenic Area. You can take bus No. 18 and No. 16 to get there. The ticket is 5 yuan. The ticket for the scenic area is 60 yuan, and the elderly, soldiers and students can pay half price of 30 yuan with relevant certificates. There are many things to do in the entire scenic area: 1. That is to watch the Yellow River. The reeds by the river and the endless river surface, as well as the tall power transmission racks standing on the mud and sand, all have an inexplicable vicissitude. 2. You can take a beach car along the Yellow River Avenue. The ticket price is 30 yuan for a single person for 10 minutes and 50 yuan for a double person for 15 minutes. 3. Take a speedboat or hovercraft to visit the Yellow River. The price of the speedboat is 50 yuan per person, and the time is about 10 minutes. It is not recommended. But you can try to take a hovercraft. The price of the hovercraft is 80 yuan per person. Friends who have not tried it are still recommended. After all, it is a special means of transportation. 4. The snacks in the whole scenic spot are not recommended, because they are expensive and unhealthy. However, I recommend a good place. There is a barbecue of Yellow River carp at the boat boarding point. It is highly recommended. Their grilled fish adds a lot of spices, mainly spicy. The braised and sweet and sour Yellow River carp are also very good. After all, the meat of Yellow River carp is very distinctive compared to other varieties. The price is very expensive! ! 190 per catty, no bargaining. If you buy a whole fish, you can choose half for barbecue and half for sweet and sour. This is the best. The largest fish is only about 3 catties. 5. In fact, there is more than just the Yellow River in the whole scenic area. There are many small gardens of different styles in the scenic area, with some antique pavilions and water wheels, etc., which are all small and exquisite landscapes, but this can only be discovered by everyone. In general, the entire scenic area is more suitable for everyone to stroll leisurely for a day. TIP: Everyone remember that the tour buses in the scenic area are not charged uniformly. They ask for a sky-high price, and you can pay it back on the spot. I don't know the price because I walked all the way.
I came from the Yangtze River, and it was my first time to get close to the Yellow River. It was the same as I imagined, but also different. The Yellow River here is not as rough and turbulent as I imagined, but has a different kind of beauty. Maybe it's because the scenic area is well-greened, which makes me, who comes from the south of the Yangtze River, feel familiar. The green trees are shady, the willows are lined, the flowers are blooming, and the lake is quiet. It's suitable for a family, quiet and leisurely, strolling around, away from the hustle and bustle of the world. Although it is a 1-hour drive from Zhengzhou, the air is very good and the sky is very blue. It's worth a visit. Ticket price is 60, cable car 40, battery car 20
There are electric shuttle cars in the scenic area, but the management is still very irregular. Each car charges a different price, and when you walk away, they will ask you to lower the price to an outrageous level. It feels like bargaining with roadside vendors, which is very unreliable.
Soon we arrived at the Yellow River. The river was very wide, but the water flow was very gentle. The reeds by the river swayed in the wind, which was very pleasing to the eye.
When you enter the gate, you can see the statues of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang, which are very spectacular.
Walk forward for about ten minutes and you will reach the mother river, the Yellow River, where you can find Yellow River carp at 30 yuan per catty.
The statue of Emperor Yan and Emperor Huang in the Yellow River Scenic Area is one of the most majestic sculptures in China. It is built on the mountain, with the mountain as its body, and a 18-meter-high head statue on the top of the mountain, with a total height of 100 meters. The concept is novel, ingenious and extraordinary. The two emperors sit facing south and north, with their backs against Mang Mountain and facing the Yellow River. In front of the giant statue is an open space, surrounded by pine and cypress, with an altar in the middle. A 200-meter-long sacred road is built on the axis from the altar to the statue, with four large bronze tripods on each side, together with the one in front of the mountain, a total of nine tripods, implying that the nine provinces and four directions will be forever stable.
The Sanmenxia Dam Scenic Area of the Yellow River has steep canyons, beautiful scenery, a towering dam, vast waters, numerous historical sites, and many ancient and moving legends.
The only impression that [Zhengzhou Yellow River Scenic Area] gave me was: "Damn, the mother river is so damn dirty!" However, the hovercraft is quite interesting, but the ticket price of 80 yuan is a bit too high.
Moreover, the scenic area of the Yellow River Scenic Area spans two counties, and the charges are so chaotic. I originally planned to eat the boat food by the Yellow River, but when I saw the Yellow River water and the fish pond, I gave up.
In the Yellow River Scenic Area, the scenery is indeed good. I asked a little bit, if you want to move around there, you have to take a tour bus. By the way, I was also asked if I wanted to take the cable car. Okay, let's go.
The Yellow River Scenic Area is also a national geological park. The water of the Yellow River is yellow and looks turbid. But this is our mother river!
The Yellow River Scenic Area in Zhengzhou covers an area of more than 20 square kilometers. Since we did not take a tour bus, we walked the whole way. By the end of the tour, we were sweating profusely and our shirts were soaked. But the happiness in my heart could not contain any other emotions.
I stayed in Zhengzhou for a day on a business trip and came to the Yellow River. There is only the Yangtze River in the south of the Yangtze River. This place is the intersection of the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River.
Yellow River, Yellow River, I have been looking for you so hard. I imagined the Yellow River to be majestic and magnificent, but I never thought it was so peaceful.
I was bumping around for more than an hour to see the Yellow River. It was not as magnificent as I imagined, but it was indeed very wide and yellow. Haha. You can also ride a horse on the shore. It was the first time in my life that I was so excited to ride a tall horse.
There is nothing here, it was all artificially built later, like a big park, almost no road signs, too many wires, can't take pictures. The glass cableway is a pit, it feels like a child's play. There are fees everywhere, the entrance and exit are very close, I just came out from the mountain, and I found that I took the wrong way when I looked at the route on the ticket. I don't recommend going!
