Where was "The Wind Rises in the West" filmed
The TV series "The Wind Rises in the West" was filmed in Hengdian. Introduction to the location
Qin Palace
The Qin Palace scenic spot is located in Hengdian Film and Television City. It was built in 1997 for the famous director Chen Kaige to shoot the historical blockbuster "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin". It can be said that this is the cradle of many film and television blockbusters and historical dramas. Nearly a hundred film and television blockbusters such as "Hero", "Qin Qin Ji", "The Mummy 3" and "Beauty" were filmed here.
The prototype of the replica of the Qin Palace Scenic Area is the Xianyang Palace, the most important palace of the Qin Dynasty. The scenic spot is huge in scale, complex in shape, and rigorous in layout. There are 27 majestic palaces of various types, with five steps on the first floor and ten steps on the pavilion. The towering city walls and the palace hall complement each other, vividly showing the majestic momentum of Qin Shi Huang's annexation of six countries and unification of the world.
The most important attraction in the scenic spot is the Sihaiguiyi Hall, which is divided into the front hall, the middle hall and the back hall. It is more than 120 meters long and majestic. It is the place where the Qin Dynasty went to govern. This was once the filming location for Zhang Yimou's film "Hero" and the popular Hong Kong drama "Qin Qin Ji". Now tourists can put on costumes and sit on the throne to take photos for about 100 yuan. The center of the hall has been transformed into a huge wishing pool by a scenic spot, with gold glittering inside and coins thrown in by many tourists. On the ninety-nine steps in front of the palace, actors perform parade performances of the First Emperor's enthronement at 10:00 and 15:00 every day.
The East Observation Tower next to the Sihai Guiyi Hall was once the filming location of "Hero". Now you can enjoy the performance show "Heroes Sword Show" in the East Observation Hall next to the building, and you can watch it in the West Observation Tower. To "Dream Back to Qin and Han". In addition, at the Dragon Emperor's Arrival Theater next to the West Palace Gate, you can also watch the 4D film "The Dragon Emperor Arrives" based on the exciting plot of the Hollywood movie "The Mummy 3".
The entire scenic spot is built along a central axis. The entire route starts from the city gate and you only need to walk straight forward.
Tour route: Royal City Gate - Front Square - Tower - Middle Palace Gate - Complex Road - Back Square - Eight Dragon Pillars - East Palace Gate - West Palace Gate - Four Flying Dragons - Ninety-nine Steps -East-West Corridor-Four Seas Guiyi Hall-East Side Hall-East Watchtower-Underground Imperial City-West Side Hall-West Watchtower.
In addition, there is a balcony to the west of the Qin Palace, which is the Yan Palace and has a very different style from the Qin Palace. As a result, the filming base of Qin Palace not only reproduces the characteristics of Qin and Jin culture, but also has the characteristics of Yan and Zhao architectural culture. One base, two palaces, highly concentrated. There is a "Han Street" next to the Huayang Terrace, which fully demonstrates the style of the streets in the Qin and Han Dynasties. However, these two attractions are reserved for filming crews, so they are not usually open to tourists. Of course, if you happen to be lucky, you might even meet a few celebrities.
Along the River During the Qingming Festival
The Scenery along the River During the Qingming Festival is located in the south of Hengdian Film and Television City. It is a film and television base based on the classic painting "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" by Zhang Zeduan of the Northern Song Dynasty. Popular film and television works such as "The Legend of the Ancient Sword", "Little Li's Flying Knife", and "The Two Proud Heroes" have all been filmed here. Therefore, when you visit, you can not only experience the prosperous Kyoto and markets of the Song Dynasty, but also enjoy walking on the streets. While wandering the streets, I found many familiar scenes from costume dramas. If you are lucky, you may encounter the crew who are filming.
The buildings in the scenic area are divided into the outer city and the inner city. In the city, there is the winding "Bianhe River", and Northern Song Dynasty-style bridges and pavilions spread out along the water bank, which is somewhat poetic. Most of the interiors of these buildings are empty, so tourists enjoy the "sense of time travel" while strolling and admiring the "Bianjing" market. You can buy some special snacks in the small shops along the street and eat while shopping, or play small games such as Northern Song Dynasty darts. If you want to experience a more "time-travel" feeling, you can also rent a set of Northern Song Dynasty clothing on the roadside, wear it to take photos with its concave shape, and continue shopping until the end of the tour, completely integrating into the surrounding Song Dynasty environment.
The four free performances of Along the River During the Qingming Festival are also a highlight. Among them, "A Dream in Bianliang" is the most amazing acrobatic performance, with the largest theater and performance scale; "Dragon Playing with the Phoenix" also has some acrobatic elements. The sound, light and dance show the lingering love and hatred of Song Huizong and Li Shishi, which is also worth watching. If you want to watch all four performances, remember to enter as early as possible in the morning, pick up a map of the scenic spot at the ticket office, arrange your visit according to the latest performance time and location above, and go to watch it. The usual performance times of "Bianliang A Dream" are 10:00 and 14:00, and two additional performances at 11:00 and 13:00 will be added from July to August (the details are subject to the actual notice of the scenic spot).
The more recommended tour sequence is: enter the gate of the scenic spot, pass through Gaofu and Chenfu, take a standard photo of Hongqiao and its reflection in the water, follow the central axis through Shangshan Gate, enter the inner city and arrive at Sun City. Not far from Yangzhengdian is the performance venue of "A Dream in Bianliang" and "A Dream from a Liaozhai Studio". Follow the trail counterclockwise around the lake, and then return to the outer city through the water gate. Continue going counterclockwise, in order It is the performance venue of "Dragon Playing with the Phoenix" and "Laughing at the Gate Formation" (outdoor). It is not far from the gate of the scenic spot. You can walk the entire tour, or rent a bicycle if necessary (additional fee, about 20 yuan per person).
The Qingming Festival Along the River is adjacent to the Qin Palace and the Dream Valley. During the day, you can visit the Qingming River Scene and the Qin Palace, and then go to the Dream Valley at night to play various rides and watch a "Fantasy Tai Chi" performance. It's just the right time in one day. . There are tourist buses running between each scenic spot (about 3 yuan), and the transportation is very convenient.
Dream Valley Water Park
Dream Valley Scenic Area is located in the original Cultural Village Scenic Area of ??Hengdian Film and Television City, and is integrated with the Jiangnan Water Town Scenic Area. Including Hengdian Old Street, Jiangnan Water Town, Meng Culture Village, and Water World, it is a large-scale nighttime film and television experience theme park with various amusement facilities and performing arts activities.
Since the park is a night amusement park, the entire business hours are only 5 hours in spring, autumn and winter. You can enter the park on time at 4 pm. In summer, the water park is open for 7-8 hours and you can enter the park at 14:30. Entering from the entrance is the Dream Culture Village, which is mainly a recreational area. Those who like to play amusement projects or bring children can go here to queue up first. The Lucky Carousel and Yama Train are more suitable for children, and adults can choose the Pirate Ship. This is a more exciting project to play.
Friends who like to play in the water must come here in the summer, because the Water World area is only open in the summer. It is themed on the story of "One Thousand and One Nights" and has a Thousand and One Nights water play area. Area, Mediterranean Wave Area and Hurricane Bay Adventure Area are suitable for adults and children to play together. There are also supporting facilities such as changing storage rooms and fast food restaurants in the area. You need to bring your own swimsuits and toiletries.
Of course, if you don’t like this kind of entertainment, you can also go directly to Hengdian Old Street for a walk. Strolling on the stone road, you can see the old shops on both sides. This is a microcosm of Old Hengdian. It is a true reproduction of the Jiangnan town in the 1940s and 1950s. Visitors can take photos and group photos here.
Next to Hengdian Old Street is the Jiangnan Water Town Filming Area. However, because this area is mainly used for film and television shooting, it is not open to tourists, so you can only watch it from the outside. If you are interested, you can watch the "Jiangnan Heritage" ancient music concert in the nearby theater. The performance time is 18:00-19:30.
The next step is the highlight of the evening, watching "Fantasy Tai Chi" and "Heavy Rain and Flash Flood". The performance times are different every day, basically starting at 7 p.m., and the performance time varies from half an hour to an hour. wait. Remember to pick up the tickets for the performance you want to see at the entrance of the park. Because there are so many tourists, if you don’t get the tickets in time, you may not be able to see it if you go temporarily. In addition, if there are additional performances during holidays when there are many people, be sure to know the performances you want to see when you enter the park to avoid missing the performance.
"Fantasy Tai Chi" is a live performance of a volcano, using "Tai Chi" as an element. "Heavy Rain and Flash Flood" is a large-scale real-life "catastrophic" performance project. Both performances used high-tech means such as multimedia, laser, and LED, as well as dance, acrobatics, film and television stunts and other forms of expression to present a wonderful artistic feast.
The two performance locations are located at both ends of the park, and you can follow the park signs.
In addition, there is a restaurant in the park, similar to Big Times. The price is not too expensive, but the overall taste is not very good, so you can bring some water and dry food.
