3-Day Walking Tour of Zhengzhou|An Underrated Old City in Central China💥 Who Knew Zhengzhou Could Be This Fun! Discover Hidden Gems by Wandering the Streets, and Enjoy Endless Delicious Food—Who Gets It! 🚶♂️3 Days 2 Nights Itinerary Day 1: 📍Erqi Memorial Tower: A landmark building in Zhengzhou. It’s recommended to buy a ticket to the top for a panoramic view of the old city (Ticket 20 RMB) 📍Dehua Street: A century-old commercial street transformed into a trendy pedestrian street. Check in at [Fang Zhongshan Spicy Soup Main Store] for Henan’s spiciest dish🌶️ 📍People’s Park: A leisure sanctuary for locals, with cherry blossoms to photograph in March-April 📍Jiankang Road Night Market: Opens at 18:30, a bustling night market with thousands of visitors! Highly recommend the spicy crayfish at Pangwa Sichuan Restaurant🦞 Day 2: 📍Henan Museum (advance reservation required): Must-see nine national treasures, remember to rent an audio guide (30 RMB/device) 📍Zhenghong City: The mall favored by young people. Don’t miss the [Awu Yellow River Carp] on the basement floor 🐟 📍Zijing Mountain Park: Home to Ming Dynasty city wall ruins. Watching elderly locals dance in the square at dusk is very soothing 📍Jianye Movie Town: Night tickets are more cost-effective! Dress up for photos + immersive performances are great value (recommended entry at 16:00) Day 3: 📍Songshan Shaolin Temple: 1.5 hours by taxi from downtown. Catch the martial monks’ performance at 10:30 or 15:00🎋 📍Yongwei Muxue Shopping Park: An Instagram-worthy forest-themed mall. The Nanyang beef at [Jiejia Henan Cuisine] on the fourth floor is exceptional! 📍Zhengzhou Art Museum New Hall: Pure white geometric architecture perfect for photos. Closed on Mondays, don’t go empty-handed📸 🍜 Food Highlights: 1. Heji Huimian (Renmin Road Branch): A 60-year-old brand, even better with chili oil 2. Geji Menbing (Funiu Road): Bianjing-style with an impressive amount of meat 3. Sichang Huimian (Mianfang Road): A magical curry broth combination 4. Song Lao San Crispy Pork Old Shop (Guancheng Street): Original oil pork with shredded pancakes is amazing! ⚠️ Practical Tips: • Use the subway electronic card by scanning the Alipay "Zhengzhou Metro Ride Code" • Zhengzhou East Station has luggage lockers (8 RMB/hour) • It’s best to book a ride back from Shaolin Temple in advance; black-market taxis charge high prices • Remember to bring a mask in March-April, the sycamore fluff is so thick you could knit a sweater🤧
