Shiqiao Film Base is located in Shiqiao Town, Lishui District, Nanjing City. It has been used for filming 🎬 'The Flowers of War', 'See You Tomorrow', 'Sunrise in the Clouds', 'Patriot', 'White Deer Plain', 'Galloping Years', etc. It mainly has three areas: the Republic of China Street Area, the Church Exterior Area, and the Hotel Area.
There is some distance between the three areas, and there are paid electric carts in the park. If you are not in a hurry, it's nice to stroll around slowly. The environment inside is quite good, focusing on a 'secluded feeling'. There are relatively few people in the park, many come here to take wedding photos, and there are also outdoor venues for holding weddings.
If you want to take photos, it is a good choice, quite photogenic. However, if you have high expectations and want more play value, you might be disappointed.
Church ⛪️
The church building, circular fountain, lawn piano, wedding venue, stained glass statues, have a visual sense of European castles and Downton Abbey. Gothic style, modeled after St. Paul's Cathedral and combined with the characteristics of the four churches in Beijing, it is great for photos. You can wear academy style, cheongsam, or French, vintage clothes for a cinematic feel.
Republic of China Street Area 🌆
Purely Republic of China exterior scenes, you can see the former prosperity of the film base through the vicissitudes. It has a feeling of the Shanghai concession, with retro signs, rickshaws, tram tracks, dopamine cars, motorcycles, etc. Wearing a cheongsam, you will look like a Shanghai socialite.
Near the Republic of China Street Area, there are also lavender, sunflowers, cosmos flowers, pumpkin carriages, small trains, hot air balloons, and pink houses.
ps. The street area is poorly maintained, with a sense of decay. Don't have high expectations, but it is photogenic.
