The night of the Shangyuan Festival in Chang 'an City of the Tang Dynasty

There is a lot of noise and traffic

The lights are flashing and the scenery is charming

Make this city infinitely prosperous

So that future generations want to "dream back to the Tang Dynasty"

Time passes by, thousands of years later, the Daming Palace National Heritage Park, the "Tang Capital Shangyuan City that never sleeps", began as early as January 1, 2020.

Today, I will take you to the scene together to unlock the most correct way for the 2020 Daming Palace Shangyuan Carnival, which lasted for 47 days, spanned New Year's Day, Spring Festival, Valentine's Day, Lantern Festival, and spanned thousands of years.

Enjoy the illusion of lanterns in eight halls

Entering the Daming Palace National Heritage Park from Danfeng Gate, you can see the 2020 Daming Palace Shangyuan Carnival Season Theme Hall of the "Yaoqian Palace·Jumping Prosperity" on the Yudao Square. After buying tickets at the ticket office next to it, you can tour the eight major theme venues. Come on, let's go!

Qi Lai Chao

Entering the venue, you will be instantly attracted by the giant light boxes built with murals on both sides, condensing the major scenes of Westward Journey, Flying Sky, Camels, Desert, and Jiedushi from various countries coming to Tang Dynasty... and vividly.

The magical journey of the court, where the palace was closed in nine days, and the clothes of all countries worshipped the crown streamers, unfolded like a scroll, and seemed to have returned to the fascinating Chang 'an of the Tang Dynasty.

Palace of Thousand Palace

Moving forward, what slowly comes is the "Palace of Thousands of Palaces" composed of thousands of neon lights. The lights are colorful and dotted with stars. You are immersed in the scene and feel the flowers blooming on the east wind night. The beauty is in the dim lights.

In the contemporary light carving process, through the outlines of stacked neon lights, thousands of homes are lit up, and the warm atmosphere of peaceful weather, the all-inclusive Kaiyuan era is fully visible.

Suri(Su Li) Tang Dynasty Dream

Passing through a door and coming to the outside, you will be attracted to 12 cartoon mouse images of different colors from Belgium, as well as 12 light balls painted with exotic scenery, allowing you to enjoy the joy of the cartoon "Su Li" mouse. Rejuvenate childhood happiness in the celebration.

The lantern ball displays the exotic customs of the 12 countries along the Silk Road, caravans on the Silk Road, the Taj Mahal of India, etc. These are the crystallization of economy and culture on the ancient Silk Road and embody the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. It perfectly interprets the diversity and tolerance of Tang culture.

longshouyuan

Standing at the entrance of the venue, you can see a dragon's tail placed on the wall, because the Daming Palace National Heritage Park is located in Longshou Plain. Walking into the museum, you can see dragon-shaped lanterns made by traditional methods, and the Tang Dynasty map that runs through the walls, roofs and ground complement each other. The golden dragon takes off to deliver blessings of peace to every household and celebrate the Chinese Year together.

The background picture is a classic image of the Daming Palace in "Chang 'an Twelve Hours". In the Tang Dynasty, the curfew was lifted only on the Shangyuan Festival, and people came and went to watch the lanterns and enjoy the scenery.

Lantern Tree Ceremony

This is the venue that brings the most shock to people. The lanterns are glowing and the dazzling lighting feast is unforgettable for a long time.

Enter the dream of a Tang Dynasty woman in the 360º surrounding image, travel through time and space, view the Tang Dynasty, and step into the Daming Palace at 12 o'clock when day and night change.

The wonderful plot setting, the large LED screens surrounded by all sides, the beautiful light and shadow technology, and the immersive space experience make you feel like you are really at the lantern viewing scene on the prosperous night of Shangyuan. The CNC array composed of 225 lamp trees is combined with surround video. The collision between the history of the Tang Dynasty and cutting-edge technology also highlights the grandeur of the celebration of the prosperous era. Remember to observe carefully, and the bottom of the screen will prompt where the best viewing area is.

Battle poems in the Golden Room

Classic masterpieces such as "Life must be full of joy, don't make the golden bottle empty to face the moon","Difficulties, bitterness and hatred grow frosty temples, and new wine cups stop turbid" sounded in our ears, and we came to the scene of the poem competition in the Golden Room.

The venue is based on interesting videos and uses transparent gauze projection technology to take you to watch the online battle of the famous poets in the poetry world. Poetic Fairy Li Bai, Poetic Saint Du Fu, and Poetic Buddha Wang Wei appear in turn and write poems in turn. The combination of charm and technology, collision, a unique cultural feast is being staged.

Taiye Huanjing

The Taiye Fantasy Outdoor Stadium is based on the design concept of one pool and three mountains, and uses carp colorful lights with reflective mirrors to form an auspicious sign of carp leaping.

The multi-layered lanterns interpret the Taiye Pool, the Tang-style immortal wind, the dancing bamboo shadows, reflecting the blue waves of Penglai, the idle clouds are ethereal, chasing immortal carp and illusory cranes. The Taiye dream that combines reality and virtual seems to take you into a scene where stars fly and everything grows., boundless and endless space.

Fuyue Shengshi Experience Hall

What comes into view when you enter the exhibition hall is the walls decorated with different "palace blessings" blessings. This venue uses dynamic capture technology, supplemented by dreamy lighting and music to provide tourists with an interactive check-in experience. Up to 6 tourists can enter the indication area at the same time at a time. According to the prompts, raise both hands to trigger the launch of the "blessing bag" on the screen, and you can "receive" the exclusive blessing bag.

After visiting the eight themed venues, I am still not satisfied. Want to take away the prosperous times of the Tang Dynasty? It doesn't matter, the cultural creativity in the front palace city satisfies you. There are a dazzling array of goods: bookmarks, Tang figures, hand books, gift boxes, all arranged, buy it! Buy it! Buy it!

By the way, we need to remind everyone that the exhibition hall is a closed one-way visit, and the recommended minimum visit time is 40 minutes. Coming out of the Cultural and Creative District, there is the "Palace Arena" directly ahead. Just looking at the track makes you a little eager to try.

palace go-kart

According to the person in charge of the site, this is the first role-playing go-kart casino in China. Six people can organize small events together. Palace go-karts are divided into adult cars and children's cars. These cars all use energy-saving and environmentally friendly charging cars, equipped with car stickers with different role-playing roles, and professional staff hand-on teaching. The feeling of racing on the spot is simply too exciting.

Speed racing, difficult corners, extreme drift, willful acceleration, the good speed of 2020 starts here!

Of course, in addition to the stimulation of the ground, the joy of high altitude can also be started here. The hot air balloon happy trip meets everyone's desire and need to "fly with the wind" and have a full view of the Dragon Shouyuan.

After wandering around like this, I feel a little hungry. The aroma from the food area in front of me is instantly attractive. Milk tea, desserts, Internet celebrity whirlwind potatoes and various specialty snacks, everyone wants to have one.

After you have eaten and drank enough, you can go to other places to visit. For example, go to the Daming Palace Ruins Museum to see the newly opened exhibition to provide you with spiritual food.
