Nine dragons in the water, soaring dragons on auspicious clouds, flying phoenixes, Zigong lanterns... Recently, the Kunming Waterfall Park shines brightly at night, and the immersion night tour season with the theme of "Colorful Panlong River; Night Tour at the Waterfall" has started. This grand event integrating traditional culture and modern technology not only brings a visual feast to tourists, but also adds a strong festive atmosphere to the upcoming New Year's Day and Spring Festival in 2024.

This year's night tour season uses water as the element, waterfall as the theme, and takes the auspicious meaning of the Year of the Dragon to create dozens of light shows such as Flying Dragons in the Sky, Ancient Poetry Canopy Promenade, Hundreds Surnames Lantern Tunnel, Romantic Peach Blossom Lane, Blue Dream Tunnel, Colorful Panlong River Holographic Projection, Whale Dream in the Garden, Dolphin Bay of Light and Shadow, Mountain and Sea Beasts, and Twelve Chinese Zodiac Signs. Visitors are surrounded by the bright "Galaxy" lights, as if they have entered a dream world.

The biggest highlight of this light show is the 7D naked-eye "Flying Dragon Show" created on the lake. Through high-tech special effects, the flying dragon flies over the lake with a lifelike image, as if it is about to break through the water and flies into the sky. This unique experience allows visitors to feel as if they are actually in the scene of flying dragons leaping.

In addition to the 7D naked-eye "Flying Dragon Show", this light show also has other interesting parts. Visitors can enjoy light shows of various shapes and colors, such as waterfall lights, meteor lights, rainbow lights, etc.; when entering the insect world themed exhibition area, they can also hear the sounds of insects and birds. At the same time, there are also live performances and interactive sessions, allowing tourists to fully participate in the activities and enjoy the strong festival atmosphere.

It is worth mentioning that this light show uses environmentally friendly and energy-saving lighting equipment and technical means, which not only ensures the smooth progress of the event, but also reduces the impact on the environment. This green environmental protection concept has also been recognized and supported by tourists and citizens.

According to staff, in order to meet the needs of different tourists, the park will also launch different activity themes at different festivals, such as Spring Festival, Labor Day, etc. The activities will last until June next year. During the event, there will also be diverse activities such as intangible cultural heritage performances, handicraft experiences.

"We hope that through this form, we can create a nighttime cultural and leisure space for citizens and tourists that blends ancient and modern times and is rich in cultural connotation, bringing new vitality to the regional economy and culture, and contributing to the inheritance of culture." The organizer of the event stated.
