Luoyang (洛阳) is a prefecture-level city in western Henan province, People's Republic of China. It borders the provincial capital of Zhengzhou to the east, Pingdingshan to the southeast, Nanyang to the south, Sanmenxia to the west, Jiyuan to the north, and Jiaozuo to the northeast.

Situated on the central plain of China, one of the cradles of the Chinese civilization, Luoyang was one of the Four Great Ancient Capitals of China.

The prefecture-level city of Luoyang administers 6 districts, 1 county-level city and 8 counties. * Jianxi District (涧西区) * Xigong District (西工区) * Laocheng District (老城区) * Chanhe District (瀍河区) * Luolong District (洛龙区) * Jili District (吉利区) * Yanshi City (偃师市) * Mengjin County (孟津县) * Xin'an County (新安县) * Luoning County (洛宁县) * Yiyang County (宜阳县) * Yichuan County (伊川县) * Song County (嵩县) * Luanchuan County (栾川县) * Ruyang County (汝阳县)

The Longmen Grottoes were listed by UNESCO in the list of World Heritage Sites in November 2000. White Horse Temple is located 12 km east of the modern town. Guanlin is a series of temples that have been built in honor of a hero of the Three Kingdoms period, Guan Yu, close to the grottoes to the south of the city. China's only tombs museum, the Luoyang Ancient Tombs Museum is situated north of the modern town. Luoyang Museum was founded in 1958. The exhibitions in the museum are the ancient relics handed down from Xia Dynasty, Shang Dynasty and Zhou Dynasty. The total number of the exhibitions is 1700.[citation needed]

Luoyang is also famous for the Water Banquet Shui Xi, which consists of 8 cold and 16 warm dishes cooked in various broths, gravies or juices, hence its name.

Luoyang has a reputation as a cultivation centre for peony (city flower of Luoyang).

An ancient Chinese musical piece, Spring in Luoyang, was adopted in Korea during the Goryeo Dynasty (918-1392), and is still performed in its Koreanized (Dangak) version, called Nakyangchun (hangul: 낙양춘; hanja: 洛阳春). The American composer Lou Harrison created an arrangement of this work.

80 km south-east of Luoyang stands the Dengfeng Observatory (also known as "The Tower of Chou Kong"). It is a tower which was constructed during the Yuan Dynasty in 1276 by Guo Shou-Ching, as a giant gnomon for the 'Measurement of the Sun's Shadow'. It was used for establishing the Summer and Winter Solstices. This astronomic instrument is described in detail by Joseph Needham in "Science and Civilisation in China", Cambridge Univ. Press.

洛阳【华夏第一王都】、【中华民族的摇篮】，【中国历史上建都最早、朝代最多、建都时间最长的都城】。其中【中国、中州、中土、中原、华夏】等称谓均来自于洛阳。永怀河洛­间，煌煌祖宗业。中国古代帝喾、唐尧、虞舜、夏禹等神话，多传于此。帝喾都亳邑，夏太康迁都斟鄩，商汤定都西亳；武王伐纣，八百诸侯会孟津；周公辅政，迁九鼎于洛邑。平王­东迁，高祖都洛，光武中兴，魏晋相禅，孝文改制，隋唐盛世，后梁唐晋，相因沿袭，共十三个王朝。洛阳自古被华夏先民认为是天下之中。周武王甫定江山即迁宅于成周，宅此中国­；汉魏以后，洛阳逐渐成为国际大都市，四方入贡，道里均，在民族融合和中外交流上功勋卓异、光耀千秋。
