The busy Zhengzhou East Railway Station, the upright "big corn", and the rippling Ruyi Lake...... When people are accustomed to these as Zhengzhou's urban landmarks, they have also become accustomed to their location - Zhengdong New District as the strength of Zhengzhou City and even Henan Province's economic development and scientific and technological innovation.
At a time when the cultural tourism and cultural and creative undertakings continue to be hot, Zhengdong New District is not far behind: the ruins of Dahe Village have become a popular research and travel destination, and the sunset concert on the Financial Island has gathered a large number of young people...... Going to the Henan Art Center to watch performances and cool off in the forest of Zhengzhou have also become new choices for citizens.
Zhengdong New Area is accustomed to "changing lanes to lead" - from Ruyi Lake to Longhu, plus the canal connecting the two lakes, Zhengzhou's first urban water night tour project is about to emerge on the 5.2-kilometer "Two Circles and One Belt" water area of Zhengdong New Area. On August 2, it will be officially opened to the general public and tourists through a sailing ceremony.
On behalf of Zhengzhou, it made a stunning appearance
As early as June 17, before and after the Henan Provincial Tourism Development Conference, the bright lights, water curtains, and NPCs flashed under the "Corn Building" in Zhengdong New District, which attracted the attention of citizens and tourists.
On the evening of June 22, as one of the series of activities of the 2024 Weibo Culture Night, nearly 100 cultural celebrities and Internet celebrities took advantage of the night to board a cruise ship and immerse themselves in the new style of Zhengzhou's urban cultural tourism. This is the first large-scale test ride before the official opening of the Ruyi · Longhu City Water Night Tour Project.
That night at the Ruyi Lake Wharf, Dayu, Du Fu, Pan An and other NPCs came with the light and shadow of the water curtain, presenting a dialogue between history and modernity, technology and humanity for the Weibo big V, citizens and tourists who participated in the event. Under their guidance, the guests boarded the cruise ship, and three special cruise ships with the theme of "Literati Danqing" and "Yujian Bronze" set off in turn, and the buildings on both sides of the strait gradually moved back. In the process of traveling, the water curtain and lights on the lake surface change into different shapes, such as the Erqi Pagoda and the Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains, and the folk customs such as iron flowers are staged on the bank of the canal.
A big V praised: "The combination of traditional cultural elements and modern scientific and technological means, such a project can indeed bring wonderful and surprises to the public!" ”
90 minutes, take a boat to view the city
In recent years, Zhengzhou has continued to launch the city brand of "Heaven and Earth, the hometown of the Yellow Emperor, and Kung Fu Zhengzhou". In the Ruyi · Longhu City Water Night Tour Project, these 12 characters are embedded in the 5 scenes.
According to reports, the overall positioning of the project is: to create a new urban consumption scene of "water + shore" interaction through cruise experience + light and shadow interpretation + bridge lighting + improvement of cross-strait cultural, commercial and tourism space. Three-dimensional, panoramic and immersive display of young Zheng, cultural Zheng, international Zheng, and science and technology.
The whole project lasted 70 minutes, with the historical and cultural context of Zhengzhou as the axis, from ancient times to the present, from south to north, planning "in the middle of heaven and earth, the hometown of the Yellow Emperor, Kung Fu Zhengzhou, the great river rushing, the world with the same light" five scenes. Along the way, there will be light shows, water screen projections, boat performances, fireworks markets, etc., and the display content is based on the rich history and pays attention to fashion expression, including drum music, Shaolin kung fu, surname culture, etc.
The 8 cruise ships are either named "Literati Danqing", or "Yujian Bronze", the decoration style is simple and elegant, or full of "sense of science and technology", and the 8 narrators are NPCs played by professional actors, including Du Fu, Liezi, Dayu, Shang Tang, Zhou Gong, Pan An, Bai Juyi, and Ancestor, all of whom are famous people in Zhengzhou in history. They will accompany you throughout the whole process to increase the experience of the night tour.
Taking the third act "Kung Fu Zhengzhou" as an example, in the night tour scene, Shaolin Kung Fu and intangible cultural heritage iron flowers are combined to change the shape to create a spectacular and gorgeous visual experience. In the scene setting of "one bridge, one scene", the bridges here are integrated into kung fu performances, and in the 16 bridges and caves that resemble grottoes, one move and one style of Shaolin kung fu flashes, and Zhengzhou's city card is fully embodied on the canal.
In addition, the project has also subdivided and created a 30-minute tour around Ruyi Lake and a 40-minute tour around Beilong Lake to meet the diverse needs of tourists.
