[2025 Luoyang Attraction] Travel Guide for Mingtang And Tiantang (Updated Mar)

When I got there, I realized that the ticket price here was 90 yuan. Having just walked through Yingtianmen, I was really hesitant. Later, I still wanted to say that since we were all here, we should go in and take a look. Otherwise it would be too early to go back to the hotel. Still coming to the evening show, the best thing about Shendu is that there are many scenic spots at night, If you stay here from afternoon to evening, you will have two different feelings. The lights are bright and bright, creating a good outdoor atmosphere with shadows. The interior architectural decoration is high-end and luxurious, majestic and majestic. It feels like it was made with money, and it is extremely luxurious and has the style of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The elevator is very small. If you want to go up to the floor in time for a performance, you have to queue up. If you have strong legs, you might as well just go to the top and then go down. Buddhist art is so beautiful and exaggerated😍 In addition to sculptures, I also took a lot of paintings and went back to savor them slowly. Also to mention: The toilets here are high-end, no smell and very clean👍 In fact, if you look carefully, you will find that the tickets are expensive for no reason. Presumably the subsequent maintenance costs will also be considerable. But if you make a special trip to take photos, you will find it to be more cost-effective. I just happened to see a couple in Hanfu taking pictures of Chinese wedding attire at the door. #100WAYS TO TRAVEL #Chinese-style architecture #Buddhist art and architectural treasures #Night attractions #BuddhistArt #Historical Relics

In the long history of China, Luoyang City during the Sui and Tang Dynasties was like a bright pearl, shining with unique charm. Among the ancient and magnificent city, Jiuzhou Pond is one of the most dazzling pearls, carrying countless historical memories and cultural connotations, and still exudes charming brilliance. The Jiuzhou Pond site was an important royal garden in Luoyang City during the Sui and Tang Dynasties, located in the northwest of the palace city of Luoyang City during the Sui and Tang Dynasties. Today, part of its site is preserved in the Luoyang Glass Group factory area, as if silently telling the glory of the past. According to historical records, the terrain of Luoyang City during the Sui and Tang Dynasties was high in the northwest and low in the southeast, and Jiuzhou Pond was located on the high ground in the northwest of the palace city, with water in the pond radiating to the palace city, forming a palace garden with dense water networks and pavilions and towers dotted among them. Looking back at history, there were four large natural rivers around Luoyang City during the Sui and Tang Dynasties: Luo River, Yi River, Jian River, and Chan River. Luo River entered the city from the south of Shangyang Palace in the west of the city, and ran through the whole city from south to east along the imperial city; Jian River, also known as Gu River, flowed into the city from the northwest corner of the city, flowed through the palace city, Shangyang Palace, and Xiyuan, and finally merged into Luo River. Luoyang City cleverly introduced Gu River into the palace city and built many ponds along the water, the largest of which was Jiuzhou Pond. It was built in the Sui Dynasty and developed and improved during the Tang Dynasty, and was an outstanding representative of the royal gardens at that time. In the prosperous scene of the Tang Dynasty, Jiuzhou Pond was even more beautiful. Here, "there is no mountain in the vast water", and the garden is built on flat ground, mainly with large water features. The pond is more than ten feet deep, with winding banks, and there are many islands in the pond, with birds and fish swimming and flowers planted. Walking along the Fragrant Path, looking at the water, you can enjoy the beauty of the Golden Pavilion; continuing north, the Flower Pavilion, the Wave Pavilion, and other pavilions and towers are scattered. The Wutou Gate shows the majesty of the west wall of the core area of the palace city at that time, and the corridor site records the vicissitudes of time. The Flying Cloud Waterfall uses the height difference of the terrain to stack mountains and draw water, creating a sense of dynamic beauty. In addition to the natural scenery, the architecture of Jiuzhou Pond is also ingenious

#chinatrip Located in Luoyang, Henan Province, Mingtang Tiantang (明堂天堂) is a historical site that captures the grandeur and cultural richness of ancient China. Mingtang, meaning “Bright Hall,” was originally the central hall for ritual ceremonies in ancient Chinese palaces, while Tiantang, meaning “Heavenly Hall,” refers to a temple-like structure designed to honor celestial beings and the heavens. This majestic site offers visitors a fascinating look at ancient Chinese architecture, cultural practices, and religious rituals. Mingtang Tiantang is known for its grand architectural design, inspired by the cosmic principles of ancient Chinese cosmology. The design symbolizes the relationship between the heavens, earth, and humanity. The structure’s iconic circular design reflects the concept of heaven being round, while the square foundation symbolizes earth, a common theme in ancient Chinese architecture. This harmonious layout emphasizes the unity between the natural world and human society. The hall’s purpose was to host important rituals and state ceremonies during the Tang Dynasty (618-907 AD), making it a significant site for imperial rites. Mingtang Tiantang was dedicated to honoring the emperor’s ancestors and the celestial gods in hopes of maintaining harmony and prosperity for the empire. It was also a place where scholars and monks would come together to study Confucianism, Buddhism, and Daoism, making it a hub for intellectual exchange. Today, visitors to Mingtang Tiantang can experience a rich atmosphere of ancient rituals and traditions, with reconstructed buildings and exhibitions that bring the past to life. Walking through the site, you can explore exquisite statues, historical relics, and beautiful gardens, which serve as reminders of China’s cultural and religious heritage. Whether you’re an enthusiast of history, architecture, or Chinese spirituality, Mingtang Tiantang offers a profound experience that connects the past with the present. Mingtang Tiantang is more than just a historical site – it is a representation of the ancient wisdom that has shaped Chinese civilization for millennia.

The most convenient way to stay at the Ancient City Walk Hotel is to go to Lijing Gate. I strolled over at 9 am and visited a tri-color art museum at the north city gate. It is called a museum, but it is actually a tri-color art and cultural creative store. Many tri-color art works are displayed on the second floor. They are very beautiful. I especially like the rich colors of the peony porcelain. The ancient city is still very quiet in the morning, and few shops are open. Come back in the evening [Grin] Take one stop from Lijingmen subway station to Yingtianmen. This magnificent building was once the south gate of the palace city of Luoyang City in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, and its function is equivalent to Beijing's Wumen. The current Yingtian Gate is newly built, and it houses a ruins museum that testifies to its glory thousands of years ago. The recently popular "Tang Palace Music Banquet" is also included here (I didn't go [Joyful]). Remember to go up to the city wall to enjoy the view. There is an escalator leading directly there. Luoyang has a long history and has made brilliant architectural achievements in every historical stage. However, due to wars and other reasons, few of them have survived intact to this day. The same is true of the "Mingtang Paradise" opposite Yingtian Gate. As the core content of the ruins of Luoyang City in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, Mingtang Paradise was built in a magnificent manner, but I always feel that it lacks some historical sedimentation, as if it were a simulated history built with modern building materials. I wonder if other tourists feel the same way. When we arrived at Jiuzhou Pond, the lights were already on, and we could not enjoy the royal gardens. We only took many photos of the Tang-style buildings that had been built. After a quick tour, we returned to Lijing Gate for a walk and a meal, and suddenly we were back to the hustle and bustle of the world [Cheers] Travel Tips: 1. After all, it was Wu Zetian's "territory", so we still have to visit the ruins of Luoyang City in the Sui and Tang Dynasties, but it is recommended to arrive later in the afternoon to focus on the night view light show. 2. If you are not interested in ancient building history and Trip Moments, you can also check in and take photos from the exterior, which is also very photogenic and saves more than a hundred yuan in ticket prices.
