introduce
As the Spring Festival approaches, the annual Chengdu Jinsha Sun Festival will meet the public as scheduled. After a series of world civilizations such as ancient Rome, ancient Egypt and Pompeii met the audience at previous solar festivals, this year's 11th Chengdu Jinsha Solar Festival will have an indissoluble bond with Maya, a famous civilization in Central America.
From February 3, 2008 to February 20, 2008 (during the 16th day of the first lunar month), Jinsha Sun Festival will make use of a series of Spring Festival cultural activities to benefit the people, such as world civilization exhibition, theme lantern exhibition, garden flower art and food performance, to create a "cultural year" in the museum for the people of Chengdu.
Lantern group
Chengdu Jinsha Sun Festival, based on sun worship, ancient Shu civilization and traditional folk customs, takes "the root of rich culture" as the new theme, and displays Chengdu's important position in the history of world civilization with traditional colored lights: world-famous cultural heritage buildings such as the Forbidden City, the Parthenon, the glass pyramid and the Colosseum in Rome gather here, among which the Chengdu Tower painted in Victory in Sichuan stands tall.
In addition, around the opening exhibition of Jinsha Site Museum, "Pompeii: Examples and Eternity-Special Exhibition of Pompeii Unearthed Cultural Relics", this year's Solar Festival Lantern Group will also reproduce the splendor and magnificence of the ancient city of Pompeii: Pompeii is bustling with shops, inspired by ancient Roman architecture and golden palaces.
As an outdoor extension of Pompeii Exhibition, in the sunken square next to the exhibition hall, the Sun Festival also outlines the life scenes of Pompeii City with light carvings: going out to sea, driving, praying, playing music and making wine, and the corners of urban life are vividly displayed.
The light group of Jinsha Sun Festival this year is the largest in its 10 years. It uses more than 50 light groups, 5 super-large light groups, the height exceeds15m, more than 5,000 clusters of trees, and the atmosphere exceeds 10000 square meters, which lights up Jinsha into a beautiful world of light and shadow.
At the same time, it is also the first time to try to brighten the exhibition hall as a whole and create a unique museum building in the night.
Pombert exhibition
The ancient city of Pompeii, located on the Mediterranean coast, was built in the 6th century BC and incorporated into the territory of ancient Rome in 89 BC.
The pleasant climate, fertile land and convenient transportation attracted countless ancient Roman nobles to stop in Pompeii, and magnificent temples and Colosseum were built one after another. The grand theatre, public baths, wine shops and other lively public places accommodate the daily leisure life of more than 65,438+/kloc-0.0 million Pompeii people, and shops all over the city display a dazzling array of goods.
Soon, Pompeii became a prosperous place. "Enjoy life, tomorrow is unpredictable." Just like a saying among Pompeii people, it is undoubtedly a paradise for pleasure and leisure on earth.
However, coincidentally, in 79 AD, within a few hours after the eruption of Mount Vesuvius, Pompeii was buried: life did not last, and all memories disappeared with it.
Catastrophe instantly destroyed this city of pleasure, and also gave it another sense of eternity-buried deep underground, which has never changed for thousands of years. In famous ancient cities such as Rome, Athens or Alexandria, the materials provided by old buildings are always used to build new buildings or for new purposes.
It is for this reason that Pompeii also preserved many relics that Rome could not preserve: from luxurious private gardens and baths to a large number of wet murals, to the shape of bread that just entered the oven.
Pompeii: Instantaneity and Eternity-The special exhibition of unearthed cultural relics in Pompeii, which will be opened during this Sun Festival, will be jointly exhibited by the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage, Activities and Tourism and the Jinsha Site Museum, and the National Archaeological Museum in Naples, Italy will collect cultural relics 120 pieces/set.
Including murals, marble statues, plaster models, bronzes, goldware, glassware, pottery and so on. Combined with 3D modeling, multimedia video and many other high-tech restoration and exhibition means, it leads the audience to travel through time and space from a brand-new perspective, return to the eve of Vesuvius eruption, reproduce the true face of the ancient city of Pompeii, explore the civilized development state of the ancient city of Pompeii at that time, and feel the daily life of Pompeii residents.
Jinsha flowers and plants market
This year's Sun Festival Jinsha Flower Market introduced high-grade flowers such as tulips, sea lilies, colored calla lilies, magpie rolls, heather, etc., and built a romantic ancient Roman town with more than 100,000 pots of various flowers, which is the largest investment and the strongest artistic beauty of the Sun Festival over the years. Colorful gardens create a romantic flower city for tourists.
European-style glass buildings are wrapped in various colors of Hua Teng. Because of its world-famous Italian burning technology, stained glass refracts light in the sun, like crystal. MengMeng's succulents are pieced together into mini Italians, and flowers and wrought iron outline a Roman castle with a volume of 400 cubic meters;
The spectacular Vesuvius volcano is transformed into a beautiful and dreamy flower volcano, fading away the sadness and shadow brought by history; The circular stage in the flower market center is taken from Pompeii's famous building-the amphitheater. Decorated with smooth curves and flowers, it means "circulation and eternity" Elegant violin, saxophone and beautiful duet are staged here in turn.

Style performance

Through songs and dances, magic, musical sitcoms and video interactive shows, we will not only show the innovative and creative Tianfu culture, but also show the classical and romantic Mediterranean customs, and will also show the mystery of the ancient Shu Jinsha.
In addition to the main stage, the entire Sun Festival Park will also have various forms of interactive performances such as parades and flash shows, which will bring surprises and touches to tourists. The grand "Sacrifice Ceremony" held on the sand of chinese heritage symbolic memorial sculpture every year has also been completely revised, leading citizens to pray for the Spring Festival sacrifice together.
