Very good 👍 The scenery background is not moving, but the audience seats are rotating. It is a wonderful design that maintains the high level of the Impression series. It was a thunderstorm day and there was lightning in the background. It was unforgettable.
We specially picked the National Day holiday to travel with our family, hoping for the cool autumn weather. Unexpectedly, the temperature in Wuyi Mountain was 38 degrees every day during the holiday. The bamboo raft tickets and Impression Dahongpao were all fully booked. We booked tickets through Ctrip with good seats. Although the package ticket was a bit expensive, it was a worry-free trip, which has always been my first choice!
The performance scene is set against the backdrop of natural mountains and rivers. The seats rotate 360 degrees as the plot scenes change. Several stories are unfolded with tea as the center, supplemented by changes in lighting and the dedicated performances of the actors. It is indeed a classic drama in the Impression series.
The real-life theater, the audience seats are propped up by the "boat-holding sister" like a big boat moving and turning, and the lights suddenly light up. The scene is still very shocking and spectacular! It is worth coming to see it when you come to Wuyi Mountain, otherwise you will feel regretful! The content is the best and biggest "advertisement" of Dahongpao。◕‿◕。 (In fact, I don’t pay much attention to the content, I have ignored it because of the wonderful dance on the scene) The projection of the horse in the middle section, I personally feel that the screen is too small, if it is several times larger, the effect will be better (of course, it requires money to invest) PS: Turn off the flash when taking pictures with your mobile phone, otherwise it will affect the viewing of people around you!
The performance of "Impression Dahongpao" uses 360-degree rotating stand, real scenery landscape performance, grand scenery, magnificent momentum, exquisite dance and space-time graphic design, fully demonstrating the profound historical "Wuyi tea culture", the essence of the whole play is "mountain and tea, people and tea, Tao and tea". It's worth seeing. It's Zhang Yimou's work. It's also the most wonderful experience of our trip to Wuyi Mountain.
The rotating auditorium, with Wuyi Mountain as the background, is quite unique. The location of VipB is very good, recommended. It is very cold at night, so it is right to wear more clothes. Don't book a session too late, the temperature difference in Wuyi Mountain in winter is too big, it is too cold
Today is the 3130 performance of Wuyi Mountain's large-scale real-life tourism performance "Impression Dahongpao" since its launch. Recently, due to the reason of approaching the National Day holiday, the number of people coming to watch the performance is not very large. According to the general introduction of Zheng, Impression Dahongpao Company, the number of audience in these days has almost maintained around 45,000 on average, and when there are more people, there are 7,800 people coming to watch the performance, estimating the country. The number of people on holidays will increase dramatically. Today's "Impression Dahongpao" is no longer the shy little look of seven years ago. It has completely become a beautiful woman. During this period, the "Iron Triangle" director group headed by Zhang Yimou, especially director Wang Chaoge, made several revisions and upgrades of the repertoire, which made the live performance more ornamental and attractive. The successful operation of the play not only greatly improves the city's popularity of Wuyishan, but also makes investors profitable because of its good operation. At the same time, it also contributes tens of millions of yuan of tax revenue to the local area every year. Although from the creative point of view, the artistic creativity and technological innovation of such large-scale live performances are no longer as shocking as before, for ordinary audiences, it is not only a pleasant spiritual pleasure, but also a worthwhile pleasure to experience the beauty of real mountains and rivers. It can be seen that as long as your tourist show can make people see and be inspired, especially to make ordinary audiences feel good and funny, then your cultural business will surely become better and better and more profitable.
The ticket price is 168, which is wonderful and worth the money. It is a good choice to bring children to watch. It is better to come in summer. The real landscape stage is on the bank of the river under Dawang Peak. It is a bit cold at night. The 360-degree rotating auditorium plus the shocking lighting, stage and sound are very cool, but Zhang Yimou continues to carry forward the fine style of not telling stories but only posing. Those who have a little pursuit of culture and art should turn a blind eye! At least the children remembered the origin of the name "Dahongpao", which is very educational! But I was also quite shocked when a bunch of bellyband beauties offered tea to the audience at the end. [Shy] We sat in the few rows. Although we could not see the panoramic view as well as the back row, the front row was closer to the actors, and we could see it clearly, and we were lucky enough to drink their tea.
