| A must-visit in Chengde. The Kangxi Ceremony of the Prosperous Dynasty is the work of Mei Shuaiyuan. The chief planner of Impression of Liu Sanjie and Lao Mouzi were the chief directors. Later, they went their separate ways. The Kangxi Ceremony is Mei Shuaiyuan's 8th work, and the scene is even bigger than Liu Sanjie. The performance is worth seeing, whether it is the shocking effect, the beauty of Jiangnan, or the magnetic commentary. The performance is set against the backdrop of Yuanbao Mountain, with lighting, sound, grand scenes, real people and real scenes, and the world is mixed together. It really reproduces the ambition of Emperor Kangxi when he was a young emperor, and the historical event that made the Qing Dynasty from a minority to a wise ruler who led China. Those who have seen it feel that 70 minutes passed very quickly. Personally, I feel it is better than Impression Lijiang, highly recommended👍 Eight highlights of the Kangxi Ceremony Big investment - 200 million yuan of huge investment Big culture - Chengde's unique royal cultural accumulation Big legend - a wonderful interpretation of the glorious legend of a generation of emperors Big history - a shocking reproduction of the magnificent history of a prosperous dynasty Big team - Mei Shuaiyuan, the founder of China's live performance, personally led a star team Big theater - the most characteristic 9,000 square meters of the mountain area of ​​​​Yuanbao Mountain in Chengde is used as the performance theater Big lineup - 200 imported war horses and more than 1,000 actors co-starred Big effect - the live performance stage is equipped with the world's largest stage machinery and lifting turntables and hundreds of super-large lighting scenes, achieving a real and illusory stage effect If you are a self-driving tourist, you don’t have to worry about not being able to find a place to park, because the super-large parking lot is free. In addition, the details of the performance are also remarkable. It must be mentioned that the ticket inspectors here are all wearing hand-sewn Qing Dynasty princess costumes, which are very exquisite. But because this is a real scene, it can only be viewed at night. Most importantly, the scenic area is located in the Yuanbaoshan area. The nights in the mountains are very cold, so you need to prepare a long cotton coat or thick jacket. Dingsheng Yuanbao Street There is also a Yuanbao Street in the Dingsheng Dynasty Cultural Industry Park. You can go there before or after the performance. There are all kinds of food, drinks and entertainment. There are also many early check-in spots, which are very good for taking pictures. Friends who come here should not miss it. The most important point is that this is a free commercial street, which is really fun.

The large-scale live performance "The Kangxi Ceremony" is China's first royal cultural theme show, a nighttime live performance that interprets the legendary life of Emperor Kangxi. Appreciate Emperor Kangxi's dreams of life, empire, prosperity and strength that emerged in the pleasant scenery of the Mountain Resort. · The weather was very good this time and the effect was much better than last time. Enter the stage and watch Emperor Kangxi, with the world in his heart, build the Mountain Resort under the guidance of the divine deer, and then encounter wars and battles among heroes! Lei's stage is colorful and unprecedentedly magnificent, creating a huge visual impact and achieving a shocking stage effect. It creates a magnificent, ever-changing, and dazzling visual art effect for the audience. Looking around, the moon, starry sky, mountains, rivers, and plants will also join the performance at any time and become part of the stage effects. Man and nature blend perfectly, and nature and man are one. · After watching it, I deeply realized that both Kangxi and Qianlong had visited the south of the Yangtze River many times. But it is said that the two Qing emperors' trips to the south of the Yangtze River were different. It is said that Kangxi's purpose in going to the south of the Yangtze River was to investigate flood control. Qianlong spent more time traveling, composing poems and writing travel notes. · About Acting Although it was a large-scale performance and the audience was relatively far away, the leading actors still paid great attention to their gestures and even their eye expressions. Like it! The performance also involved "constellations". Nan Huairen was asked by Emperor Kangxi which star in the sky he was. The ancient observatory at the southwest corner of Beijing's Jianguomen Bridge has many astronomical instruments, which were supervised by Nan Huairen during the reign of Emperor Kangxi. · Once again, I would like to suggest that the performance venue has no roof! There is a VIP area! The seats were full when it rained... The performance was grand, the lighting was great, and the actors performed very hard even in the rain!

We originally wanted to come to Chengde to visit the Chengde Mountain Resort and the nearby Grassland Sky Road. People traveling the same route recommended that we must watch the Kangxi Grand Ceremony performance of the prosperous dynasty. Coincidentally, I had also seen someone recommend it online before. This is a must-experience in Chengde. So I looked it up online, and when I saw the pictures, they looked pretty good. When I went to Lijiang before, I saw Impression Lijiang and found it very shocking and worth seeing, so I decided to go and take a look. · We bought the cheapest seat in Building C (178/person), which is a bit off the beaten track, but it’s okay as it’s closer to the front. The pictures are beautiful, the actors act very well, the effects are spectacular, and Kangxi is introduced very well. · When I went there, it was near the scenic area, the square in front of the ticket gate of the scenic area? There was construction going on around the area, and the road was difficult to walk on. It took me a long time to find the way in. Finally, I entered through the parking lot entrance because I couldn't find any other entrance. There are no restaurants, cafes or other places to rest because of the construction around. Self-driving navigation address: Live performance of Kangxi Ceremony of Thein Sein Dynasty (it takes about 10 minutes to walk from the parking lot to the ticket gate, crossing a commercial street, so please reserve time) · Wait until 7 o'clock (you can visit this commercial street in advance, called Yuanbao Street), and check your tickets to enter. I bought a ticket online for the same day, and someone contacted me not long after I made the reservation to say that the ticket had been sold and could not be refunded. I called them when I got there in the evening and they would deliver the ticket. After checking your ticket, there is a long road ahead, and along the way there are shops selling all kinds of food and small toys. This show tells the life story of Emperor Kangxi. The various light and shadow effects are very grand. Combined with holographic projection and other technologies, there are more than 1,000 performers. The effect is very shocking. The ticket price is still worth it. You should watch it when you come. The horses look very handsome when they run!!! There will be explanations, which is also a good historical education for children. I think it is a better performance around Beijing. You can also visit the Summer Resort during the day. It is a very good experience. Recommend it to everyone~! · 📋Practical tips for watching performances: 🚌Transportation: Yuanbaoshan, Chengde City, Hebei Province, take bus No. 5, No. 5, No. 15 in the urban area and get off at Dingsheng Dynasty Station. 💰Price: The ticket price for the general area A zone is 288 yuan, and the ticket price for the B zone is 198 yuan; 🉑Others: Since the performance takes place in the mountains, there is a big temperature difference between day and night.
