Things to do in Luoyang

This is truly a worry free trip to cover both places for people who stay lesser day in LuoYang. Even after trip to go to high speed rail station, they are able to accommodate with early communication which is convenient. The tour guide Ms Dong, she is a professional and knowledgeable in giving commentary and well organized to ensure everyone needs are being taken care accordingly. Overall the trip is very informative to have a better understanding of the culture.

This is a compact and cost-effective tour without any stops at souvenir shops. Since it's a Chinese-language tour, you'll need to use translation apps like WeChat, but as long as you confirm the meeting time and place with the guide, you'll be fine.

Phoenix dance in the divine Capital is an excellent performance worthwhile to be experienced if you travel to Luoyang, one of four ancient capitals of China. This show is not well marketed and I believe it is only sold on Klook to International tourist. The story is about Emptess Wu during the Tang dynasty who ascended to the throne. Sound, staging, lighting, dances are all excellent. The live performance has dances, martial art weapons demonstrations, live camels, fire and flame throwing, and even real cavalry charges! if there is one area for improvements, how to get to the show venue is not essy. Even within the Juizhouchi scenic area, the signs are confusing and lacking for foreign tourists. Even though the show is in Chinese, one can come for the visuals, the sights and sound.

A nice experience to visit shaolin temple and white horse temple, good contrast and comparison between the 2 temples. Shaolin temple is very commercialised, the kungfu show needs to queue at least 30min before the next show. very chaotic when moving and do not go to level 2 as there are little seats and very restricted view through the small windows. merchandises sold on the way out from the show are highly over priced. can consider to buy the merchandises online (e.g Taobao) or from local shops if plan to stay in Luoyang for more than 2 days.

The guide, 张静 contacted us 1 day before & arrange mini van to fetch us from hotel to the pick up point & change to a bus. The guide throughout follow & explain the history of the 3 places with us. we paid RMB$60 per pax for the meal & the shuttle transport at the scenic area.

very professional and knowledgeable guide and safe driver. we have learned a lot of history from her. She is also caring as my girl had a bad knee. They sourced a nice little shop for our lunch and nice itinerary
