Gubei Water Town 

Gubei Water Town is in Gubeikou Town, Miyun, Beijing. The history of Gubeikou, Simatai Great Wall and Yuanyang Lake Reservoir enhance the tour value of Gubei Water Town. Through the inheritance and regeneration of traditional village houses in the north, it has attracted a large number of tourists with its rich northern architectural style and high-quality leisure and vacation environment.   

The night view of Gubei Water Town is an important part of its extraordinary charm. When night falls, the lights outline the elegant silhouettes of the ancient buildings, the pagoda temple on the high mountain in the distance, and the shops in the town nearby. The dazzling lights make the whole town resplendent like a fairy tale world. 

In addition to the beautiful night view, Gubei Water Town also arranges a variety of activities for night tour guests: watching the drone Kongming Lantern Show at Riyue Island, watching the Great Wall Water Dance Show on Wangjing Street, taking a night tour at the Simatai Great Wall, each of which is very exciting.

Drone Kongming Lantern Show 

Nearly 100 drones took off one after another in the town's Riyue Island Square, like a Kongming lantern floating into the distant night sky. Subsequently, the drone Kong Ming lantern bloomed like dazzling stars, with sound, light, electricity, video, sound and other high-tech means to create three-dimensional, special effects, animation, holographic imaging and other multimedia effects. In the night sky of Gubei Water Town, changing patterns and 3D three-dimensional pictures shine in mid-air.

Great Wall Music Water Dance Show 

Every night, the Wangjing Tower on Wangjing Street in Gubei Water Town will stage a big show - the Great Wall Music Water Dance Show. With Wangjing Tower as the background, culture as the soul, and creative customized building animation as the carrier, the water dance show uses light, shadow and new media visual language to show the history and culture of Gubeikou.

The water curtain, fountain, full-color laser and 3D images reflecting the illusion of light and shadow. The Wangjing Tower is transformed into a light scene of electric light flow and shadow and time and space travel. The life of the architecture that has gone through the vicissitudes of life is reinterpreted, and through the carefully choreographed story script, the viewer is led to a 3D full-sensory immersion journey of Chinese discovery spanning ancient and modern times!  

Watching the Great Wall Music Water Dance Show, you can feel the combination of virtuality and reality. The magic of water and fire is like a dream. Although it is made by people, it sounds like heavenly music.

Night Tour at the Simatai Great Wall

The sky is getting dark, the lights on the Great Wall are lit up, and the Simatai Great Wall is transformed into a golden dragon, which is spectacular. The night tour officially begins with the lights all on.

The Simatai Great Wall was the first to propose a night tour. The most distinctive activity of the Simatai Great Wall Night Tour is the Lantern Night Tour. In Gubei Water Town, at the foot of the Simatai Great Wall, there is a Jiankuntang lantern shop specializing in making and selling lanterns, where you personally make a palace lamp and walk on the bricks and stones of the Great Wall overlooking the lights under the mountain. 

On the Simatai Great Wall where stars shine, you can have a drink with the cool mountain breeze and the Great Wall. The bright moon and the starlight intermingle, forming a beautiful night view that is intoxicating.
