[2025 Dongyang Attraction] Travel Guide for Heng Dian New Yuanming Palace New Changchunyuan (Updated Apr)

This is not Manzhouli, but in Zhejiang. Zhejiang, a place full of surprises, this is my last stop in Hengdian. Unlike other places, it restores famous historical buildings at a 1:1 ratio, and is recommended by the World Tourism Organization as the best tourist destination. This is the New Yuanming Palace, located in Hengdian, Dongyang, Zhejiang. The entire park is divided into Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter Gardens, and currently the Spring and Summer Gardens are open. Most people will go to the popular Spring Garden, but overlook the Summer Garden next to it. In fact, the lesser-known Summer Garden is the most romantic, with very few tourists, and it is very stunning. One of the must-visit spots in the Summer Garden is the Russian Pavilion. It cleverly moved the Russian St. Varis Cathedral here, and the entire building is cleverly combined into one by nine towers, with strange shapes and colorful colors. What shocked me was that I couldn't pick out anything wrong here, the exquisite details and high degree of restoration made me feel like I was in real Russia. In addition, there are many places with Chinese and foreign architectural styles such as the Twelve Zodiac Twelve Beast Heads, the Great Water Method, the British Pavilion, and the Five Bamboo Pavilion. These places all reflect the legend of the 'Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens', which is a great masterpiece of Chinese and Western integration. In addition to the beauty of the architecture itself, there are various exhibitions and activities, such as the Piano Museum, art exhibitions, etc., providing tourists with a rich cultural experience. When playing, you can rent an electric car to play in the park, which is time-saving, labor-saving and convenient. In addition, there are snack bars in the scenic area, it is recommended to bring dry food.

With the opening of the Hangzhou-Wenzhou High-speed Railway, it is more convenient to travel to southern Zhejiang. We chose to travel in early December because the autumn colors in southern Zhejiang are at their peak, and we can enjoy the colorful scenery. Our first stop is Dongyang City, where there is Luzhai and the famous Hengdian World Studios. Luzhai Scenic Area (Photos 1 and 2) is located in the city center of Dongyang, about 7-8 km from Hengdian Railway Station or Dongyang North Railway Station. There are ancient buildings from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, and it takes 1-2 hours to visit. Rest here for a night and get ready for tomorrow's one-day tour of Hengdian. For a one-day self-guided tour of Hengdian World Studios, it is recommended to choose a one-day ticket package for any three places, which is much cheaper and allows plenty of time to play according to personal preferences. Personally, I think the Summer Palace of the New Yuanmingyuan (Photos 3-20) is a must-see in Hengdian World Studios. There are the Twelve Zodiac Heads Fountain and performances, the Grand Water Law, the Snail Tower, the Bell Tower, etc. The 1:1 simulation is extremely high, and there is a panoramic sand table of the Yuanmingyuan, which makes people marvel at its superb architectural art and deeply feel the historical shame of its destruction.

Dongyang Hengdian New Yuanmingyuan Park was built by farmer entrepreneur Xu Wenrong at the age of 80, who invested CNY 30 billion and served as the chief commander. The park was built according to the blueprints of Beijing's Yuanmingyuan Park at a 1:1 scale. It is divided into New Yuanmingyuan Park, New Changchunyuan Park, New Qichunyuan Park, and New Changchunyuan Park (Dream of the Red Chamber Park), also known as Spring Garden, Summer Garden, Autumn Garden, and Winter Garden. The park covers an area of over 4,666,667 square meters and will restore more than 95% of the buildings in Yuanmingyuan Park. The first two gardens were completed and opened in 2015 and 2016, and the park is a national 5A-level scenic spot. The Summer Garden features a mix of Chinese and Western architecture, including the Twelve Zodiac Animal Head Fountain, Dashuifa, and exquisite buildings from eight countries: the UK, France, the US, Russia, Japan, Germany, Italy, and Austria. Tour route Twelve Zodiac Animal Heads - Haiyantang Grand Theater - Huanghua Maze - Ruyi Hall - Nianjing Hall - Haiyue Kaijin - Lion Grove - British Noble Manor - Russian Church - German Triumphal Arch - Wuzhu Pavilion

The New Changchun Garden (Summer Garden) in the New Yuanming Palace is based on the Changchun Garden in the Yuanmingyuan Garden in Beijing during its heyday. It has both Chinese-style buildings such as Haiyue Kaijin and Lion Forest, and Western-style European palaces and fountains, and has added exquisite characteristic buildings from eight countries including the UK, France, the US, Russia, Japan, Germany, Italy, and Austria, and exotic streets composed of 14 countries including India and Saudi Arabia. It is a royal garden that combines Chinese and Western styles and is stunningly beautiful. The Piano Museum is located in the British Pavilion of the New Changchun Garden (Summer Garden). It brings together all kinds of pianos from ancient times to the present, from China to the West, each of which carries a unique historical story and cultural mark. The collection of pianos in the Piano Museum has now reached nearly 100. Among the collected pianos with clear years (or approximate years), most of them were produced between 1870 and 1930, and more than half of them were produced in the short 20 years from 1890 to 1910. In other words, these pianos are densely distributed at the previous "turn of the century".

The Old Summer Palace in Beijing is now in ruins, and children can only learn about it from textbooks. The Old Summer Palace in Hengdian perfectly replicates the grandeur of the Old Summer Palace. If children want to learn about it, they can be taken here and given a history lesson. The tickets are indeed a bit expensive, but the place is really big. For those who like to take photos, it's worth it. There's also a replica of the Russian Red Fort. 💰Average cost: CNY200 🌟Highlights: 1:1 replica of the Old Summer Palace ⏳Recommended duration: 3 hours
