Dongpo Park

Dongpo Park, located at Dongpo village in Hubin district of Sanmenxia, Henan province, was named after Su Shi (aka Su Dongpo), a renowned poet from the Song Dynasty (960-1279). The park is 17 kilometers away from Sanmenxia South Railway Station, and buses and taxis are available for visitors.

Dongpo Park is themed around Su Shi's poems and food, and integrates picking fruits and dinning, and outward bound, aiming to make it a comprehensive and new-fashioned ecological park. The specialty of the park's "Dongpo feast" includes Soysauced Dongpo Pork, Dongpo Fish, and Dongpo Elbow, which are widely appreciated by visitors. Here visitors can view beautiful garden sceneries, taste green ecological food, and appreciate Su Shi's classical poetry.

With beautiful flowers dancing in the wind surrounded by idyllic views, the park is just a fairyland where visitors can escape the summer heat and spend relaxing leisure time.
