About this experience
"Impression Liu Sanjie" embodies a vivid and luxurious style, using the largest domestic environmental art lighting project and unique smoke effect project to create a poetic and dreamlike visual effect. Traditional performances are performed in a limited space in the theater, but this performance uses nature as the real stage. Looking around, the water of the Li River and the mountains of Guilin become the central stage, giving people a broad vision and a transcendent feeling.
Traditional stage performances are human creations,while "landscape performance" is a joint creation between humans and God. In Impression-Liu Sanjie, the looming peaks, the reflection of the water mirror, the embellishment of mist and rain, the whisper of the bamboo forest, and the spreading of the moonlight will enter the performance at any time and become wonderful interludes.
