Reconstructing the Peach Blossom Spring's Human Artistic Conception

Preface | In Guilin's mountains and rivers, looking for the Peach Blossom Garden

guilin landscape has been the most representative symbol of Chinese landscape culture since ancient times. For thousands of years, people have described its beauty with poems and songs, and recorded its aura with paintbrushes. What is contained between mountains and rivers is not only natural landscapes, but also a cultural imagination about the ideal world.

Tao Yuanming's Peach Blossom Spring depicts a pure land that is far away from the hubbub and free from the world. It is not just a fantasy in literature, but the deepest yearning for nature, life and spiritual world in the hearts of Chinese people. Chinese Wonderland, it is in the landscape of Guilin to reinterpret this ideal.

This is not just a scenic spot, but a cultural Taoyuan that integrates landscape, humanities, national culture and intangible cultural heritage. What tourists see is not only the lake and mountains, but also an immersion journey about the "Peach Blossom Garden. From the tranquility of the ship's cave to the waterfront shaded by peach blossoms; from the long distance of Dong ethnic group's singing to the breath of life in the landscape settlement,Chinese Wonderland hopes to make people feel the purest connection between landscape and culture, and between man and nature.

Here, landscape is no longer just a landscape, but a philosophy of life; Peach Blossom Spring is no longer just an ancient story, but an ideal artistic conception that still exists in the contemporary world.

The beauty of Guilin lies in the landscape; and the beauty of Chinese Wonderland lies in the mood after the landscape.

When visitors travel through the deep caves by boat, the water shines against the shadows of the mountains and the peach blossoms reflect the streams, what they see is no longer just the natural scenery of Guilin, but an immersion journey about the "Peach Blossom Land. Chinese Wonderland Based on the landscape of Guilin, Tao Yuanming reinterprets the human artistic conception of "suddenly meeting the peach blossom forest", so that tourists can not only watch the scenery, but really walk into a fairyland left in the world.

Between mountains and rivers, clouds and mist flow, water waves swing lightly, and the shadow of the boat moves slowly, as if time is gradually slowing down. People leave the hustle and bustle of the city and reality, surrounded by mountains and rivers, and feel the stability and tranquility brought by nature again. The mountains here are not just mountains; the water here is not just water. Between the mountains and rivers, the Chinese people have been hiding their imagination and yearning for an ideal world for thousands of years.

Guilin landscape presents the beauty of nature, and Chinese Wonderland further transforms this nature into spiritual artistic conception. When visitors through the cave, into the peach blossom forest moment, but also symbolizes from the real world, into another kind of about the Peach Blossom Land spiritual space.

Tao Yuanming's Peach Blossom Garden is not an illusory celestial world, but a pure land away from the hustle and bustle and at ease.

Chinese Wonderland With this as the core spirit, we re-construct the contemporary artistic conception of Peach Blossom Spring. Here is not only the beauty of Guilin's landscape, but also the integration of ethnic minority culture, intangible cultural heritage, landscape settlements and humanistic life, so that Peach Blossom Spring is not only an ideal in ancient literature, but a cultural world that truly exists between landscapes.

The waterfront in the morning mist, the slow-moving fishing boats, the Dong ethnic group songs from the mountains, and the quaint buildings under the peach blossoms all form an atmosphere between reality and dreams. People here are no longer just hurried travelers, but can really stop and feel the Taoyuan life interwoven with landscape and culture.

There is no hustle and bustle of the city, only the purest connection between people and landscape, people and culture, and people and nature. The singing of ethnic minorities, the temperature of intangible cultural heritage, and the breath of life in the landscape settlements make the entire scenic spot not just a sightseeing space, but more like a culture Taoyuan that still retains the oriental humanistic spirit.

What Chinese Wonderland pursues is not only the construction of scenic spots, but also the "reconstruction of the human artistic conception of Peach Blossom Spring 」. I hope that everyone who comes here can find their inner imagination of peace and beauty in the mountains and rivers.

Guilin's landscape is the best in the world, and Chinese Wonderland is trying to find the spirit of "symbiosis between man and nature" in traditional Chinese culture in this landscape.

Here is not only a natural scenic spot, but also a fusion of landscape, humanities, ethnic and non-heritage culture Taoyuan. Heaven, earth and god totem, ethnic patterns, blue dye, embroidery, Dong Grand Song and landscape settlement, together form Chinese Wonderland unique cultural aesthetics.

Landscape is no longer just a background, but a part of culture; culture is not just a display, but truly exists in life and space. From architectural ornamentation, non-heritage craftsmanship to spatial atmosphere,Chinese Wonderland hopes that every landscape can convey the cultural image of the Peach Blossom Spring world. Here visitors do not just watch the culture, but can really enter the culture. When people see the delicate texture of blue dye and embroidery under the light and shadow, what they experience is an oriental aesthetics that spans time and region.

Chinese Wonderland It is hoped that tourists can not only appreciate the landscape of Guilin, but also feel the cultural spirit of the traditional Chinese "harmony between man and nature" and re-understand the deep relationship between landscape and people.

Therefore,Chinese Wonderland is not just a landscape, but a cultural realm.

In the era of rapid change, people are more and more eager to return to nature, to culture, to the heart of the real quiet place. Chinese Wonderland hope to create, not just a tourist attraction, but a can let people slow down, re-experience the landscape and life of the spirit of the peach blossom.

When the sunset shines on the lake, the mountain shadows reflect the water, and the peach blossoms fall beside the boat, what people feel is not only the magnificence of Guilin's landscape, but an imagination about ideal life. Time seems to slow down here, and people can regain their true peace of mind between landscape and nature.

Modern society is getting faster and faster. People are accustomed to information, speed and urban rhythm, but they gradually lose their connection with nature, culture and heart. Chinese Wonderland I hope that through the landscape, humanities and cultural space, we can reawaken people's feelings of slow life and spiritual world.

The Peach Blossom Spring here is not just an ancient story written by Tao Yuanming, but a philosophy of life that still exists in the contemporary world. Outside the landscape, people can still find their own Taoyuan. Chinese Wonderland is the beginning of this journey.
