Luoyang Surroundings | Avoid the crowds during the May Day holiday at these niche and unpopular scenic spots
Every spring, all the scenic spots in Luoyang are crowded with people. Here's a recommended spot where you don't have to worry about the crowds even during holidays!
Luoyang Ruyang Dinosaur Geopark Museum
It's a 40-minute to 1-hour drive from Luoyang city center, with an admission fee of 50 yuan (usable with Luoyang tourism annual pass, discounts available online)
Playtime: About 1 hour
Parking: There is a parking lot at the navigated location, but it is not recommended to park there, as it is still a distance from the entrance to the scenic area. It is recommended to drive directly to the entrance of the scenic area.
The geopark is not big, but it's very unpopular, so even on holidays, there are very few people. First, there's the outdoor part with some fake dinosaurs and some playground equipment like swings and seesaws. Then there's the indoor part, with some dinosaur fossils and some exhibits, as well as a small educational film. It is a museum that integrates dinosaur fossil site protection, science education, and dinosaur entertainment.
Tips: It is recommended to visit with other scenic spots, and you can also go to the county town for some delicious food
We went to the geological museum, Shidian town, and then to the county town for a meal, which was just right for a day trip from Luoyang.
Gourmet:
Ruyang county town is about 20-30 minutes away from the scenic area, here are a few local delicacies introduced by locals.
· Ping'an Chicken Leg. Marinated chicken legs, then deep-fried, with an old-fashioned taste, super crispy, 6 yuan each.
· Xiao Jie's Rib Noodles. Sweet-tasting noodles, the noodles are the thick round type, very chewy, with rib noodles and braised pork noodles, available in small, medium, and large sizes.
