Henan (Chinese: 河南) is a province of the People's Republic of China, located in the central part of the country. Henan is often referred to as Zhongyuan or Zhongzhou (中州) which literally means "central plain land" or "midland", although the name is also applied to the entirety of China proper. Henan is the birthplace of Chinese civilization with over 3,000 years of recorded history, and remained China's cultural, economical, and political center until approximately 1,000 years ago.

In case you're interested in the culture and art of the Tang dynasty, this is one of the go-to museums. Marvellous Tang pottery and most of all Sancai wares.But there are also very good exhibits on the early dynastic, or at least bronze making, China, from Erlitou and Erligang, which are slightly outside Luoyang.

We went to Jiao zhuo from zhengzhou since we couldnt find any tour guide from Zhengzhou. The next morning took a taxi to Yuntaishan. Wonderful place especially the Red Stone gorge which should never miss.

Early Chinese Buddhist cave art is represented by well-preserved pagodas, carvings and statues.
We went to this as part of a history theme tour of China. The carvings and workmanship was outstanding. The largest statue was commissioned by the first female emperor of China - Wu ZheTian. Across the river you will see a historic building which represents the perfect harmony and aligns with the perfect Feng Shui.

It was a great hike. There are no cable cars on Mount Song just trails. There is another mountain near the Shaolin Temple that has cable cars. Both were very beautiful.

This is a famous martial arts monastery, the birthplace of both kung fu and Zen Buddhism
As a child, I have always been fascinated with Shaolin temple! Truly a gem of China! It is no longer a “working temple” per say, but you do see a handful of people who would pray to the gods. A must visit place! Had a private tour with Spring (ask me for his contact) and he is knowledgeable as well with the history of the temple. Got the chance to see a little bit of Kungfu show as well! Do come and explore the grounds!
