What are the features of food in Luoyang?
Luoyang enjoys fertile soil and rich local products. As one of ancient capitals of China, it owns plenty of delicious cuisine. Luoyang Boiled Food Banquet is a must-try when visiting the city. The banquet gets its name nacause most of the dishes are soups; the dishes are also served continuously one after another like running water. Noodles coked in green soybean milk, toped with vegetable and hot pepper oil is a yummy snack. If you are craving dumplings then try Xin'an tangmian dumplings. These pork dumplings are delicious with some vinegar. Besides, the palatable carps from the Yellow River and the fresh fruits are worth to try.
What souvenirs are worth to be bought?
Apart from Chinese paintings of peonies that can be bought all over Luoyang, another local specialty is Tang tri-colored glazed enamel pottery. Traditionally, most works are of horses, camels or people, but modern pieces have expanded into framed pictures of peonies or Chinese zodiac animals. Replicas of ancient bronzes are a local specialty, especially well made are the ancient wine vessels. For something that is less fragile, pick up some Heluo Stone, which come in odd shapes and colors. Additionally, the Luoyang palace lanterns are famous for their delicacy.
