Zhenbeibao Western Cinema, located on the outskirts of Yinchuan, is one of the top ten cinemas in China and a national AAAAA-level scenic spot.

The entrance to the scenic spot costs 80 per person. I have been to many domestic scenic spots, and I can only say that Zhenbeibao is worth it! When entering the film and television city, you must pass through the "Gate of Knowledge". Read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles. Enter the "Gate of Knowledge" by chance and gain insights through travel. Looking back on the way back, I read while walking.

Among the many film and television cities in China, Zhenbeibao Western Cinema City is characterized by simplicity, primitiveness, roughness, desolation and folk culture. It is known as "one of the best in China" and is the best location base for movies and TV shows with western and ancient themes in China!

There is also a circle of posters at the entrance of the scenic spot. Basically, famous movie stars have filmed here.

More than 200 film and television dramas, including "The Wrangler", "Red Sorghum", and "Westward Journey", which have won international and domestic awards, have been filmed here. It can be said that every scene in the studio has appeared in a movie!

The entire cinema consists of Mingcheng, Qingcheng, Old Yinchuan Street and other film and television shooting landscapes. Next, we will introduce the entire cinema in three parts.

Mingcheng

Qingcheng

Old Yinchuan Street

The Mingcheng Gate is designed based on the classic lens "Moon Gate" in the famous film "Red Sorghum". It echoes the "Moon Gate" in the film and contains the meaning of "Two moons reflect the jade". The two moons form the Chinese character The word "friend" in .

Mingcheng embodies the original, rough, simple and desolate natural appearance. It is the main shooting scene of the film and television city. The main attractions include the Cornucopia, the Wrangler, the Cultural Revolution Courtyard, the Moon Gate, Guanzhong City Gate, Chai Cao Store, Pansi Cave, and Dingzhou General Manager Mansion, wine shop, Jiu'er's residence, blacksmith camp, ruins corridor, bride-recruiting platform, Longmen Inn, etc.

Watch some more movie scenes

Finally I left and saw this Tallinn, which was the main scene in the 2001 movie "Gada Merlin" directed by the famous director Feng Xiaoning. In the play, an old man sits next to Tallinn and plays the Morin Fhuur in his hand, bidding farewell to the heroes who are about to go to the execution ground. Later, this scene was repeatedly used in the filming of "Guanzhong Swordsman", "Kansai Wuji Sword", "Qiao Family Courtyard", "Book and Sword Enmity" and other film and television films.

Qingcheng, located at the northern end of the movie theater in the west of Zhenbeibao, was built in the fifth year of Qianlong's reign in the Qing Dynasty (AD 1740). It was another barracks built under the orders of Qianlong after the Ming Dynasty was destroyed by the earthquake, so it was named "Qingcheng".

This is the first gate of Qingcheng

This is the second gate of Qing City, also known as the "Luck Gate". The reason why it is called the "Lucky Gate" is because "Zhu Yuanzhang", "Flying Sky", "Westward Journey" and other films shot at this city gate were all great successes, so the Chinese film and television industry calls this city gate "The Gate of Fortune". The door to luck”!

After entering, there will be a guide map of the entire Qingcheng city.

Let’s take a look at the city scene

Old Yinchuan Street has a replica of the original "Ningxia Provincial National Government" building as its central axis and is modeled on the most prosperous "Willow Alley" in Yinchuan City before liberation.
