Hengdian Fake Beijing Palace by =yakobusan on deviantART
This pictures was not taken in Beijing.
Confusing headline? You should have seen me when I was standing in the fake forbidden palace! Hengdian World Studios is the name of the crazy movie studio that ‘rebuild’ the forbidden city for cinematic purposes. And not only Beijing, but they also copied some buildings from Xi’An, Hongkong, Guangzhou and other cities. I didn’t know this, but quite a few big movie titles were completely or partly shot here: Gong Li’s THE EMPEROR AND THE ASSASSIN, Zhen Kaige’s horrible THE PROMISE and last but not least Zhang Yimou’s latest drama THE CURSE OF THE GOLDEN FLOWER. And countless chinese TV series, as it seems.
