This is a performance like you have never seen or experienced before.

No one knows how long this picturesque scenery has been waiting in rain and mists. Is its graceful image made for us?

Suddenly this makes us learn the miraculous charm of this performance: we only do half of the work while the other half is done by the creator whose improvisation makes each scene fresh to us.
It's our great honor to have ZhangYimous as chief director. With his university acknowledge talent and creativity, he makes matchless works. In his eyes, the creator is green, representing a harmonious relationship between humans and nature.
In the past 5 years, we made numerous modifications to the plan of the performance, and now we are approaching its perfection. Here, all efforts of man are to make themselves a part of nature and become its spirit. It's green and it's peaceful. It's a baptism of nature and it's a return of human nature.
