The Kaifeng Prefecture in the Northern Song Dynasty was similar to the current Beijing Municipal Government. The famous Bao Zheng and Bao Qingtian once served as the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture. The Kaifeng Mansion in the Song Dynasty had long been destroyed by floods. The Kaifeng Mansion that tourists see today is a man-made antique attraction that has been rebuilt in recent years. The gate of Kaifeng Mansion faces south, and tourists enter the scenic spot from here to start their tour. The scenic area takes the main hall, conference hall, plum blossom hall and other buildings as the central axis, and is flanked by large and small halls such as Tianqingguan, Mingliyuan, Qianlong Palace, Qingxin Tower, Prison, Yingwu Tower, and Yinbaoguan. The scale of each palace is not large. Visitors can visit some scenic spots on both sides after visiting the scenic spots on the central axis according to the schematic diagram of the scenic spot.
