Fantastic 5.0
We had a wonderful experience visiting Shaolin Temple and Sanhuangzhai. Even though this was a Chinese speaking tour and we were the only Korean guests, our guide ‘Gao Jie’ was incredibly kind, beautiful and considerate throughout the trip.😊 Thanks to the guide’s care we were able to fully enjoy the experience. The Shaolin Kung Fu show was amazing, and short tracking at the Songshan, where legendary martial arts masters once trained, was unforgettable. A perfect tour filled with history, culture, and stunning scenery. Highly recommended! 👍

We visited two world‑heritage sites, Shaolin Temple and Longmen Grottoes, in one day. The schedule was well‑arranged and hassle‑free. The Kongfu show at Shaolin Temple was spectacular. The grand Lushena Buddha at Longmen Grottoes is breathtaking. Our guide gave vivid explanations without rushing us. Highly recommended

September 15th was a very worthwhile and joyful day trip! The itinerary timing was well-managed, and the self-paid Luoyang water banquet at noon was a rare and unique experience that was quite good. Tour guide Li Junpeng explained things very diligently and took great care of everyone. It has been a long time since we encountered such an enthusiastic and dedicated tour guide. Thumbs up!

our tour guide 程艳霞 was amazing, she took care of us throughout the tour and attended to all of our queries professionally. this tour will do pick up from your hotel, but drop you at only certain drop off point but not back to your hotel. we were lucky cause it was only a small group of 11 people, make everything easier and smoother

Our tour guide is very capable and helpful. Knowing that we are foreigners and not be able to reach the meeting point in the early morning, she booked a didi for us to bring us from our hotel to the meeting point. She also help us with the senior concession for our tickets. Excellent service !

Zhengzhou Shaolin Temple & Longmen Grottoes Day Tour Review This trip was a day tour exploring the Shaolin Temple and Longmen Grottoes, representative attractions of Henan Province, China. It was a meaningful time to experience China's history, Buddhist culture, and traditional martial arts all at once. It was a very satisfying itinerary, allowing me to experience the traditional martial arts and history of the Shaolin Temple alongside the grand Buddhist art of the Longmen Grottoes in a single day. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to deeply experience Chinese history and culture. I would like to thank our guide, Mr./Ms. Xiao, for providing great guidance and making the trip enjoyable. It was a meaningful day that I recommend to anyone planning a trip to Zhengzhou.

### Review of the Qingming Shanghe Garden & Lord Bao Temple Small Group Day Tour This trip was a small group day tour exploring the Qingming Shanghe Garden and the Lord Bao Temple, making for a meaningful itinerary to experience the history and traditional culture of China's Northern Song Dynasty. At the Qingming Shanghe Garden, I was able to admire the streets and traditional architecture of the Song Dynasty and vividly experience daily life from that era through various traditional performances. With its beautiful scenery and numerous attractions, it was a great place to take photos. At the Lord Bao Temple, I had the opportunity to understand Chinese history and culture while exploring a space dedicated to Lord Bao, who is renowned for his integrity as an official. It offered a completely different atmosphere from the Qingming Shanghe Garden, making the combined visit to both attractions all the more satisfying. Above all, I would like to express my gratitude to our guide, Mr. Zhang, who accompanied us on this tour. Thanks to his friendly and attentive guidance, I was able to enjoy the itinerary even more comfortably. The small group format made it easy to explore the sights, and experiencing Chinese history and culture made this a truly meaningful journey. **I highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to visit both the Qingming Shanghe Garden and the Lord Bao Temple. This enjoyable trip with our guide, Mr. Zhang, will remain a fond memory for a long time.**

What to know before visiting Zhengzhou

Zhengzhou at a glance

Zhengzhou’s Klook bookings are led by Tours, followed by Attraction passes, Historical sites and Theme parks, so the city suits travellers who want guided outings, multi-attraction access and cultural visits. Demand rises and falls through the year: Klook historical booking data shows a strong spring peak in April–May and a pronounced lull in late summer and winter. For deciding when to go, weigh crowds against atmosphere — pick lively spring months for events and fuller tours, or quieter months for a more relaxed visit. All facts above are from Klook booking data.

Best time to visit Zhengzhou

Spring is the busiest season: Klook historical booking data marks April and May as the clear demand peaks, while August and several late-year months are much quieter. Prices generally drift through the data window with a high in April and a low in November, so sometimes crowds and prices rise together (April–May) and sometimes they diverge (late autumn is quiet and also among the least expensive). For lower prices and smaller crowds, consider November or the very quiet months; for peak-season atmosphere and fuller tours, aim for April–May.

Month Demand Level Typical Price
January Very quiet USD 61
February Busier than usual USD 61
March Busier than usual USD 61
April Peak demand USD 117
May Peak demand USD 53
June Peak demand USD 59
July Quieter than usual USD 39
August Very quiet USD 63
September Very quiet USD 63
October Very quiet USD 63
November Very quiet USD 24
December Very quiet USD 41

Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.

Where to stay in Zhengzhou

Klook booking data shows Guancheng as the most affordable district with a typical nightly rate of around USD 23, and Zhongyuan as the priciest at about USD 102; the gap between them is roughly 77%. Cheaper districts tend to suit travellers prioritising budget and longer stays or those who want simple, cost-conscious lodging; pricier districts suit travellers seeking higher-end hotels, more polished amenities and a more upscale stay. These differences come from Klook hotel booking patterns and nightly-rate medians.

Booking tips for travellers

Most travellers on Klook book roughly 11 days ahead, while the earliest planners book about 23 days out, so allow a little lead time when you can. Because April–May are Klook demand peaks, consider locking in popular tours earlier if you travel then; outside peak months you can be more flexible. Klook booking data also shows last-minute availability around 4 days, so spontaneous plans still work. Book through Klook to reserve tours and passes in advance and to keep options open as your trip shapes up.
