Tour guide explanation of "West Lake Night"

The beautiful West Lake is like a bright pearl embedded in Hangzhou, an ancient and vibrant city. Hangzhou's long history is closely linked to the world-famous beautiful West Lake, which has also recorded a glorious history for Hangzhou. The beauty of the West Lake lies not only in its charming lakes and mountains, but also in the fact that it tells you about Hangzhou, a famous cultural city. The large-scale tourism performance by the West Lake, Night of the West Lake, tells the history of the West Lake and the moving story that happened by the West Lake.

The large-scale tourism performance "Night on the West Lake" recommended by Hangzhou Tourism Commission and Wenguang Group is a practical project for Hangzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to deepen the implementation of the reform of the central cultural system, "build a famous cultural city" and "build a golden business card for Hangzhou culture".

Located on the east bank of West Lake Scenic Area, Hangzhou Dongpo Grand Theatre was built by Hangzhou Municipal Government in 2004 at a cost of more than 300 million yuan. The scenery of the West Lake is widely praised, and fashionable international brand stores are dazzling. The largest water music fountain in China presents you with a wonderful chapter. The theater is adjacent to the famous Yan 'an Road Commercial Street in Hangzhou and the internationally renowned West Lake Xintiandi. Surrounded by century-old shops, there are also famous restaurants in Hang Cheng, such as Prince Tower, Red Mud Garden, Jade Kirin and Taocun. The unique geographical location, convenient transportation, warm environment of Dongpo Theater, humanized hardware facilities, meticulous and thoughtful service, and the large-scale tourism performance "Night of the West Lake" tailored for Chinese and foreign guests left a deep impression on everyone who has been to Dongpo Grand Theatre.

In fact, the Dongpo Grand Theatre in Hangzhou, which staged Night of the West Lake, is also a portrayal of Hangzhou's long history. Su Dongpo, a famous poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, became the mayor of Hangzhou, then developed the West Lake and built the Su Causeway. At the same time, in order to enrich the cultural life of merchants from all over the world, he built the largest theater in Jiangnan at that time, which is the predecessor of Dongpo Grand Theatre today. With the changes of history, this ancient theater has been rebuilt several times. During the Republic of China, it became the Dongpo world where Hangzhou's dignitaries gathered, and Dongpo Road was the epitome of Nanjing Road, a ten-mile foreign market in Hangzhou. After liberation, Dongpo World was renamed Sino-Soviet Friendship Pavilion. With the reform of the country and the development of Hangzhou's urban economy, the Hangzhou municipal government once again invested heavily in rebuilding the theater and listed the reconstruction project as one of the top ten key buildings in Hangzhou. This is the Dongpo World in Hangzhou now-Hangzhou Dongpo Grand Theatre.

The Night of the West Lake, created by Hangzhou Cultural Center and Hangzhou Golden Coast Industrial Corporation, a national-level cultural industry demonstration base in Zhejiang Province, is based on the beautiful history of the West Lake, and uses China martial arts, acrobatics, Jiangnan silk and bamboo, Yue Opera, Chinese and foreign dances and other performance elements to deeply show Hangzhou's yesterday, today and tomorrow. During the 60-minute performance, you saw the history of Hangzhou's founding under the leadership of Qian Wang in the wuyue period and the prosperity of Hangzhou in the Southern Song Dynasty. It not only tells you the eternal love story of butterfly lovers, but also shows you the beautiful chapter of Sifu Tea Country, the original Yue Opera, melodious and passionate silk and bamboo, amazing kung fu and so on, which brings you unforgettable memories. The powerful performances of more than 200 actors, exquisite performance skills, advanced stage facilities and warm and thoughtful service not only let you know about Hangzhou, but also let you feel it.

Since its premiere in June 2004, Night on the West Lake has received nearly 200,000 guests from more than 30 countries and regions in Asia, Europe, America, Africa and Oceania, and more than 20 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government of China. None of the guests complained, which is the quality assurance of "West Lake Night". After watching the performance, an American audience said to the entourage, "This performance is worth more than spending $65,438+000 to see the white tiger in Las Vegas ...".
