The following is an evaluation of Hengdian Film and Television City:
Advantages
- Rich scenes: There are many large artificial scenic spots such as the Qin Palace, Qingming Shanghe Tu, Ming and Qing Palaces, and more than 2,000 ancient costumes, period, and modern and contemporary film and television shooting scenes, which can meet the needs of different tourists.
- Complete supporting facilities: There are more than 40 five-star to business economy hotels in Hengdian Film and Television City, and more than 1,400 film and television companies. In addition, catering, shopping and other facilities are also available to provide convenience for tourists.
- Wonderful performing arts activities: There are dozens of large-scale performing arts shows such as "The Forbidden City Ceremony", "The Dragon Emperor's Surprise Arrival" and "Heavy Rain and Mountain Floods" in each scenic spot, which combine historical culture, film and television elements with stage performances to bring tourists a shocking audio-visual experience.
- Strong film and television atmosphere: As the world's largest film and television live-action shooting base, many film and television crews often shoot here. Tourists have the opportunity to meet celebrities here, feel the charm of film and television production, and may also participate in crowd actor experience activities.
Disadvantages
- Crowded tourists: During holidays or peak tourist seasons, Hengdian Film and Television City has a large number of tourists, and the scenic spots are overcrowded, which may affect the tourists' experience, such as long waiting time in line and obstructed vision when watching performances.
- High ticket prices: The ticket prices of Hengdian Film and Television City are relatively high, and each scenic spot sells tickets separately. If you want to visit multiple scenic spots, the cost will be considerable, which may be stressful for some tourists with limited budgets.
- Aging of some facilities: Due to the early construction time and frequent use, some facilities and equipment in some scenic spots are aging, such as roads, building decorations, etc., which to a certain extent affect the overall beauty of the scenic spots and the tourists' experience.
The Qingming Shanghe Tu scenic area is worth visiting. There are various interactive games inside. Guangzhou Street and Hong Kong Street are very fashionable. There is also Huanqiu Cinema. I also met the crew of the filming. It was fun.

Families, you must not miss Lu's House when you come to Dongyang! Once you step into it, the saying "There is the Forbidden City in the north and Lu's House in the south" is not in vain. This is the largest and most well-preserved ancient building complex of Ming and Qing Dynasties in Jiangnan, and it shows the weight of history everywhere. Strolling along the central axis of Suyong Hall, there are nine courtyards with a depth of 320 meters. The spatial sequence is similar to that of the Forbidden City and is extraordinary. The Dongyang wood carvings on beams, brackets, doors and windows are unique, delicate and beautiful. This is also a popular filming location for film and television. "Celebrating Yu Nian 2" and other films were filmed here. However, there are few introduction signs for some buildings in the scenic area. If you want to understand the history and culture in depth, you have to do your homework in advance or ask a tour guide. There are limited dining options around, and it is not convenient to eat when you are tired. But overall, Lu's House is worth a visit and highly recommended!
The house is like a folk Forbidden City, and the archway ox legs are works of art. During the Guangming and Qing dynasties, the Lu family had dozens of Jinshi and Juren. In other words, the Lu house was built through reading. Dongyang is truly worthy of being called the hometown of doctors.

The kids had a lot of fun, and there were many performances. We watched the sea lion show at Yijing Garden, and there were also iron flower shows and rainstorms and flash floods in the evening. The iron flower show was very shocking, and I especially liked the fireworks part. The rainstorm and flash floods with tons of heavy water pouring down were very shocking. It was one of the better performances we have seen recently.
Family members must recommend the Dream Valley bungee jumping machine and Ferris wheel. When the bungee jumping machine starts, the moment you catch up with the world will continue to be so cool that you will throw all your pressure into the sky. The slowly rising Ferris wheel can see the beautiful scenery of the entire Dream Valley. Romance is in Japanese. The equipment is well maintained and the staff is considerate. Whether you are looking for excitement or wanting luck, it can be satisfied here.
