Overview

  • This ticket grants access to the world’s largest indoor dynamic immersive theatre—home to the iconic Chongqing 1949 epic play. What makes it unmissable:
    360° rotating stage & seats: 5 circular structures shift scenes every 10°, wrapping you in 1949-era prison cells, dockside streets, and battlefields (18m stilt houses, 13.6m simulated ship included).
    Stunning live action: 120 performers deliver high-flying stunts (aerial wire work, 11m cage lifts) paired with 3D panoramic sound—turning the liberation storey into a heart-pounding, up-close experience.
