When Kaifeng is pronounced, the initial k is similar to the K sound in English, and the vowel āi is similar to the eye sound in English, and the tone is the first sound. The name originated in ancient times and symbolizes the prosperity of this city.

Kaifeng, a city with a long history in Henan Province, has been an important political, economic and cultural center since ancient times. Kaifeng, located in the Yellow River valley, is one of the six ancient capitals in China.

Since ancient times, Kaifeng has been famous for its rich cultural heritage, beautiful natural scenery and unique cuisine. Du Fu, a famous writer and poet, once described Kaifeng as a day for thousands of families, and he was always dizzy because of the bright lights.

Kaifeng's history can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period, when it was the capital of Zheng. During the Northern Song Dynasty (960- 1 127), Kaifeng reached its glorious peak and became one of the largest cities in the world at that time. At that time, Kaifeng was prosperous and its cultural and educational undertakings were developed, attracting many literati. The famous Riverside Scene at Qingming Festival depicts the prosperity of Kaifeng at that time.
