Han Culture Museum: Frozen history, flowing civilization ✨ As the core of the scenic area, this magnificent 8-story building blends architectural styles from the Western Han, Eastern Han, and Shu Han dynasties. The glazed dome of the underwater corridor and bronze murals are breathtaking. ✨ The museum houses Han dynasty artifacts and historical materials, using light, holographic projection, and other technologies to bring the "Records of the Grand Historian" bamboo slips and bronze ware to life. Wear Hanfu here and copy ancient texts for a full sense of ritual. ✨ Hidden feature: AR interactive experience zone, where touching the wall with your fingertips triggers historical scenes, such as a re-creation of Huo Qubing’s battle sand table. 2. "Han Song" Epic Long Song: History “reborn” on stage ⏰ Show time: Daily at 3:00 PM (Tuesday to Sunday) 🎭 360° circular theater + holographic gauze screen, with Sima Qian as the thread connecting classic stories like "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl" and "Zhang Qian’s Mission to the Western Regions." Actors “travel through” from the audience seats, creating a highly immersive experience. 3. "Legend of Tianhan" Water Live Show: A Han cultural feast under the night sky 🌌 Time: 8:30 PM (Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday, duration 1 hour) 🌊 On Hanyuan Lake, a 3,000㎡ holographic water screen, drone formations, a hundred-meter flaming dragon, and water fireworks intertwine to tell the legend of the Han River goddess and Zhang Qian. Secure VIP front-row seats to feel the shock of water mist and firelight rushing toward you. 4. Han People’s Old Home Street & Silk Road Style Street: A blend of local life and exotic charm 🍜 Ancient street with blue bricks and black tiles, where you can taste intangible cultural heritage foods like Hanzhong noodles and vegetable tofu, and experience traditional crafts (papermaking, touhu game). 🕌 Silk Road Style Street replicates Western Region architecture, with exotic lanterns and markets perfect for shooting cross-cultural photos. 📸【Photo Tips】 - Hanfu check-in spots: underwater corridor of Han Culture Museum, lantern alley in Han People’s Old Home Street, water screen reflections by the lake. - Atmospheric moments: morning sunlight on flying eaves and dougong brackets, and when palace lanterns light up at night (rent Hanfu recommended; rental package with makeup inside the scenic area costs 198 RMB). 🚗【Transportation & Itinerary Suggestions】 - Arrival: Take high-speed rail to Hanzhong Station, then a 10-minute taxi ride; self-driving navigation to "Xinghan Shengjing Parking Lot." - Recommended route: Morning: Han Culture Museum → Xinghan City Exhibition Hall (learn about Hanzhong past and present) Noon: Lunch and rest at Han People’s Old Home Street Afternoon: Han Yuefu experience → Photo shoot at Silk Road Style Street Evening: Watch "Legend of Tianhan" by the lake 🏨【Accommodation Recommendations】 - Xinghan Cultural Inn: Located inside the scenic area, Han-style courtyard, 5-minute walk to attractions. - Hanzhong City Center: More dining options, suitable for exploring surrounding areas the next day (e.g., Shimen plank road). 💡【Practical Tips】 1. Show reservation: Book tickets on the official website 3 days in advance during holidays; package tickets are more cost-effective. 2.

Night tour notes: It can be windy by the lake, bring a jacket; wear flat shoes as the scenic area is large. 🎨【Reflections】 Xinghan Shengjing is more than a scenic spot; it is a time-space gateway to the Han spirit. When the bronze sculpture of the Vermilion Bird spreads its wings in the sunlight, when the chime bells of "Han Song" resound through the theater, when fireworks bloom into the character "Han" on the lake surface—you suddenly understand why we call ourselves "Han people." History is no longer the lead letters in textbooks but tangible roof tiles, audible ritual music, and wearable deep robes. Spend a day here, and you will complete a heartfelt dialogue with a civilization spanning a thousand years.
