## About Kaifeng Prefecture Government Office (Kaifeng Fu)

Kaifeng was the political, economic and cultural centre of the Northern Song dynasty. The Kaifeng Prefectural Office you see today is a themed cultural scenic area rebuilt on the model of the Song-dynasty Kaifeng yamen. Inside, you can see large numbers of precious historical records and exhibits, and enjoy spectacular performances such as the court-opening ceremony and Judge Bao solving a case.
