The Rhythm Art of Luoyang's Millennium Ancient Capital

The first thing to mention is the famous world cultural heritage Longmen Grottoes, which has a history of 1400 years. Thousands of statues of Buddha show the exquisite skills of ancient stone carving art in China. Here, you can enjoy different styles of Buddha statues and feel the religious charm of the ancient capital of thousands of years. In addition, the ancient buildings in Luoyang are also worth visiting. As an ancient capital, Luoyang has many well-preserved ancient architectural complexes, such as the ancient city of Luoyang, a national key cultural relic protection unit, and the site of Paradise Tang Ming. These buildings with a long history have witnessed the prosperity and vicissitudes of Luoyang and presented the ancient capital for tourists.

In terms of natural landscape, the White Horse Temple in Luoyang is also a must-visit. As the birthplace of Buddhism in China, the natural landscape around Baima Temple is picturesque, blending Buddhist culture and natural beauty. Here, you can feel the harmony between religion and nature. Finally, Luoyang's artistic tradition is also an important part of local characteristics. The famous Luoyang peony culture, tri-colored porcelain and other intangible cultural heritages represent the rich artistic heritage of this ancient capital.

Besides, I met an ingenious tea artist near Baima Temple in Luoyang. His teahouse is picturesque and complements the surrounding natural landscape. In the process of tea tasting, the tea artist described the development of Luoyang tea culture and how he became a respected master of tea art from an ordinary tea farmer. His story made me deeply feel Luoyang people's persistent pursuit of traditional culture and unique charm.
