I thought Xi'an's nightscape was already stunning until I came here

📍Luoyang, situated at the center of China, served as the capital for thirteen dynasties and boasts the longest continuous history as an ancient capital. A single glance spans millennia—only after visiting Luoyang did I truly witness the grandeur of the Tang Dynasty's golden age.

❤Recommended Highlights:
1. Longmen Grottoes
As the foremost of China's four great grottoes, Longmen Grottoes is an absolute must-visit in Luoyang. We recommend entering through the Northwest Gate to complete a full loop of the scenic area without retracing steps, allowing you to admire more exquisite stone carvings.
The grottoes begin lighting up at 18:30, transforming into an even more mystical and enchanting sight under the illumination.

2. Jiuzhou Pool
The night view here is breathtakingly beautiful. At 19:30, the dazzling lights transport you back to the splendor of the Tang Dynasty. Strolling here in Tang-style attire offers an immersive experience of the dynasty's imperial luxury and elegance.

3. White Horse Temple
Known as "China's First Ancient Temple," White Horse Temple is one of the birthplaces of Chinese Buddhism and a truly international temple complex.

4. Yingtian Gate
This Luoyang landmark offers panoramic city views from its heights, where you can feel both the weight of history and the vibrancy of modern life.
