A Few Specials From Our Henan (河南) Journey

Our journey through Henan (河南), the Middle Province (天地之中) in the Middle Kingdom took us from the once-a-year Luoyang Peony Flower Festivals (洛陽 牡丹節), witnessing first hand the ancient Chinese Oracle scripts from 4,000 years ago (殷墟 甲骨文) to the modern day theme park along the Mother River - Huanghe (鄭州 黃河風景區); the ancient capital of Kaifeng (開封), one of the governing centres in the Three Kingdoms era (許昌) by the famous premier/general (曹操) and not forgetting that Henan Province had long been known as a goldmine for dinosaur fossils (perhaps thus making us the legendary Descendants of Dragons - 龍的傳人, hee hee ... ) as well as super-rich in minerals such as copper, iron and other color-metals; we also came across a few special / peculiar / interesting / beautiful / artistic photo opportunities - enjoy !
