The Chinese and foreign buildings of various styles seem to have traveled back to the Republic of China period. There are many shops and restaurants along the street, and you can also take a rickshaw or horse-drawn carriage to travel through it.

When we got there, we lined up for a long time to get the tickets. Mr. Zhou got the tickets, and I was responsible for buying children's tickets. But I didn't know that youth tickets were only for domestic children, and foreign children were not included. In the end, I still bought full-price tickets.
I finally bought it and came in. The first thing I saw was the alpaca. It was so cute.
There were really a lot of people. I tried my best to avoid the crowds and take photos.
I wore a cheongsam specifically to go on a time travel trip, but there were too many people and the journey was unsuccessful.
Let's talk about this Rongguang Theater! We walked into the theater and rested for a while. They said there would be a performance in a while. We waited for half an hour before it started. It turned out to be very disappointing. It was an acrobatic performance. The key is that the level was too poor. We thought it was just for fun. The skills were really bad. I laughed to death. Hahahaha. After the rest, we went to Fanghua Courtyard, which is where the movie "Fang Hua" was filmed.
Look at the entrance of Fanghua Courtyard, isn’t it very impressive?
The children seemed very curious about everything here.
This is the rehearsal room and performance venue in the movie. An actor came out to sing the theme song of the movie, Ronghua. Unfortunately, I could tell from the first sentence that it was lip-synced.
After leaving Fanghua Courtyard, you can finish your shopping by strolling around a bit.
The Feng Xiaogang Film Commune at Huayi Entertainment Group's Mission Hills Haikou is the world's first film-themed tourism project named after a film director. Construction began in 2011, and new locations have been added over time. Located on the outskirts of the city, it's accessible by bus from downtown. Tickets are a bit pricey.
The scenic area uses scenes from Feng Xiaogang's classic films such as "1942", "Aftershock" and "If You Are the One" as architectural planning elements to create a comprehensive entertainment and commercial block, presenting the style of Chinese urban blocks over the entire century of the last century, and fully displaying the evolution history of Chinese urban architecture in the 20th century.
The main attractions mentioned online include 1942 Street, Old Beijing Street, Nanyang Style Street, Church Square Area, Feng's New Year Movie Garden Landscape Area, etc., but currently only 1942 Street (including the filming area of Youth) and Nanyang Style Street are open.
The retro-style streets have always been my favorite. There are cheongsams and other seasonal clothing for rent for tourists to use. It costs 100 yuan per person and you can wear them and take photos as you like. Of course, you can also ask their professional photographers to help take photos. I’m not sure about the price, so you can ask them when you need it.
I didn't rent any clothes, so I just took some photos. This place is really suitable for taking photos. Every corner is beautiful, so you must take photos when you come here.
I went to Feng Xiaogang's Film Commune. I think it's worth it. The only thing is that time is tight. If you have time, you can go in the morning. There are three streets inside. You can take photos and watch the performances slowly. No matter how you take the photos, they are very tasteful. Believe me
The package ticket is for two streets, 1942 Street and Fanghua Street, this is 1942 Street. There is really nothing to see in Fanghua Courtyard, it is just a spot where Fanghua was filmed.
Feng Xiaogang's Film Commune is located in the Mission Hills Resort in Haikou, accessible directly from K2 and K3. The scenic area is divided into three sections: Nanyang Street (88 yuan admission), 1942 Republic Street (88 yuan admission), and Fanghua Courtyard (68 yuan admission). A combined entrance fee is 198 yuan, but there are many secondary purchases. I probably don't need to pay for the combined entrance fee, as I didn't buy any at the ticket counter. I bought my ticket at China-TravelNote for 125 yuan, which was a significant savings, but it's important to purchase at least an hour in advance. Upon entering the main entrance, the road leading to the main area is lined with stone handprints of celebrities, but I wasn't interested in them. I took a few photos of the main entrance before entering the first distinctive street, Nanyang Street. This area features 70 buildings with a blend of Chinese and Western architectural styles, showcasing the charm of Nanyang. The area boasts period archways, slogans, docks, clock towers, bridges, streams, churches, and other architectural features. Rickshaws, rickshaw drivers, and horse-drawn carriages also reflect the era. There are also immersive experience halls featuring Wing Chun military officers, pawnshops, pharmacy shops, cheongsam tailors, and mooncake workshops. This place recreates the scenes of that era and year. Unfortunately, I visited during a film shoot on Nanyang Street, and much of the street was already blocked off! The ticket collector didn't warn me, and when I left, they wouldn't let me re-enter. I was really disappointed. You can choose either Nanyang Street or 1942 Republic Street; the scenery is similar. There's not much difference, and Nanyang Street is much smaller than 1942 Republic Street, so I wouldn't recommend it.
There's a self-service bag storage area at the ticket office entrance, with sizes ranging from large, medium, and small. Different sizes charge different fees, so you can choose the one you need. I personally recommend leaving food and water alone, so packing light is easy for photos and posing! The food is quite down-to-earth and not expensive, and each restroom is equipped with toilet paper, which is a good idea!
In fact, if you have made a reservation to visit here, you can also stay in a hotel here at night. You will also get free tickets when you stay in the hotel, which is relatively cost-effective.
It was already a little late when we arrived here, but it didn’t matter. Although we couldn’t record every scenic spot, it was also very beautiful to encounter a sunset.
Release time:
The park is open from 10:00 to 22:00 from Monday to Friday; from 8:00 to 22:00 on weekends and statutory holidays.
One great thing is that, perhaps considering that the scenic area is far from the city, there is a place to store luggage, with small cabinets, medium cabinets and large cabinets, which is convenient for putting down non-valuable items and enjoying the styling.
There are many options for renting costumes for taking photos in the film commune
You can choose to take photos of cheongsam, Kuomintang military uniforms and "Three Red" military uniforms yourself or ask someone to help you
I picked a random shop and rented three Red Army uniforms when I was about to enter Fanghua Courtyard.
Clothes, pants and hats are 30 yuan with no time limit. Water bottle and belt are 15 yuan with no time limit.
A total of 45 photos are enough. It is much cheaper than expected.
But Fanghua Courtyard is so small, if there is no time limit, there won’t be much to show.
One regret is that I didn’t rent clothes to take photos with Dafa Gao. It would have been more interesting if we had taken photos together.
This scenic area, built specifically for the film, boasts replica buildings. As the lights come on and the crowds disperse, it's a perfect spot for photos. However, there are few restaurants within the area, and the surrounding area offers limited entertainment and shopping options.
The first park in China named after a director, it is super large. There are three characteristic blocks here, namely: Nanyang Street, 1942 Street and Old Beijing Street
There are dozens of handprints of filmmakers at the entrance. The handprints of Mr. Chen Daoming and Director Feng Xiaogang are placed on both sides of the Filmmakers Avenue.
You can buy tickets at the entrance of the park by yourself. There are pass tickets and individual tickets. It is recommended that adults only buy tickets for three blocks. The pass includes an ocean world and an earthquake experience hall.
Nanyang Street is perfect for taking photos of the Republic of China period. There are various clothing rental shops on the street. Put on a cheongsam and you will immediately be in your prime. Put on a military uniform and you will immediately turn into a female spy. It is recommended to visit this street last. It will feel better after dark when the lights are turned on.
1942 Street includes the Youth Courtyard, which is the real filming location of Feng Xiaogang's filming of Youth. The dance gym plays the movie "Youth" in a loop. Don't say it, you will feel it all at once.
There are several crews renovating the old Beijing neighborhood. The department store is exactly the same as the one in Wangfujing, and it has everything from military compounds to courtyard houses.
I feel like this park is worth spending most of the day playing in. If you’re a playful person, you can spend the whole day there without any problem O(∩_∩)O haha~
You can take K2 or K3 to the city center. The Didi fare from Haikou East Station to here is about 12 yuan.
Tickets are as follows: Generally, there's a large pass for 198 yuan and a small pass for 158 yuan. The small pass is recommended, which covers the 1942 Scenic Area, the Fanghua Scenic Area, and the Nanyang Scenic Area. The large pass adds admission to several gardens within the park, including the Aquarium, the Theater, the Wax Museum, the China Dragon Museum, the Film Museum, the China Gold Coin Museum, and the Typhoon and Earthquake Museum. None of these are particularly impressive. The Aquarium is just a collection of fish tanks; the Wax Museum has two small floors displaying foreign celebrities and Chinese leaders on the second floor; the China Dragon Museum houses a stone collection; the China Gold Coin Museum displays gold coins; the Typhoon and Earthquake Museum is a children's playground that simulates a typhoon and earthquake, and you get wet, just like getting caught in the rain; and the Theater has performances.
The scenic area is not big, so it is recommended to visit in the afternoon and evening. The night view of Nanyang Street is pretty good at night.
You can rent clothes for taking photos there. The Republic of China style clothing is quite nice. If you are a beautiful girl, it is recommended to rent clothes for taking photos.
My route is to go to Nanyang Street first and then to 1942 Street, then enter the Fanghua Scenic Area and exit 1942 Street to wait for the lights to turn on in the evening, and then go to Nanyang Street to take pictures of the night view after dark.
Honestly, judging purely by the photo opportunities, Feng Xiaogang Film Commune is better than Qilou Old Street. It's a paid attraction and the filming location for the movie "Youth." It's a much larger complex of imitation buildings set in Republican-era culture, specifically designed for photo opportunities. The buildings and streets are meticulously crafted, not at all imitation-like. After all, it's a film set. You can judge for yourself by the photos. However, it's a bit far from the city center. Feng Xiaogang Film Commune is adjacent to Mission Hills Resort, so I recommend visiting both. You can check out my Haikou travelogue for a detailed guide.
The Film Commune is now divided into two parts: Nanyang Street and 1942 Republic Street (Fanghua Courtyard), and there are other old Beijing streets and churches under construction.
We stayed at May Hotel in Nanyang Street, so we didn’t need to buy the Nanyang Street ticket of 88 yuan per person, and we could enter and exit Nanyang Street as many times as we wanted.
The ticket price for 1942 Republic Street is 68 yuan per person. Fanghua Courtyard is located in 1942 Republic Street and needs to be purchased separately at 68 yuan per person. If you buy a package ticket for the two, it is 98 yuan per person.
There are very few people in the off-season, and you can rent clothes for 50 yuan. There are many choices, and the unique street scenes are very beautiful to take pictures.
Feng Xiaogang Film Commune, located in Longhua District, Haikou City, Hainan Province, was built in 2011. It is a comprehensive tourist area integrating real-life tourism, physical commerce, and film and television shooting.
Feng Xiaogang Film Commune consists of multiple film and television shooting landscapes such as 1942 Street, Nanyang District, and Old Beijing Street, covering an area of 930,000 square meters. It is an ancient building complex with the culture of the Republic of China period as its background.
Films such as "Youth" were shot at Feng Xiaogang Film Commune.
Although director Feng Xiaogang's recent works and personality have drawn mixed reviews, today we're discussing the attractions, not the people themselves. Overall, Feng Xiaogang Film Commune is quite impressive. Billions of dollars were poured into the construction of these historic buildings. We don't know where the money came from, but it certainly paid off. While the scale can't compare to Hengdian in Zhejiang, anyone who's been there knows that the buildings there are replicas of ancient architecture, while this one mimics modern architecture. Each has its own unique charm and is perfect for photo opportunities. Both attractions also offer small performances like magic tricks, Sichuan opera face-changing, and street performances, making the entrance fee quite worthwhile.
It's quite a rip-off, especially the shuttle bus that costs five dollars per person, but you can actually walk there in just one minute.
Feng Xiaogang Film Commune is a short street. You can see the sign outside, but there is nothing inside. If you want to go, you need to pay a ticket. The student ticket is about 20.
Feng Xiaogang Film Commune is pretty good. I took a stroll there on the way back. There are only two streets in total. I walked through them in no time. But it is really a Republican-era style.
It's surprisingly fun to visit here, and Fanghua Courtyard is still the most popular. Warm reminder: the so-called free photo taking at the door is actually charged, because the free one is small and ugly and you won't want it at all. If you want a large and clear photo, you have to pay extra. I, a rational consumer, decisively refused. I am really virtuous.
It's fun here, suitable for taking pictures, and there is also Fanghua Courtyard
Feng Xiaogang Film Commune is a place that girls who like the Republic of China style must not miss. It can be said to be the most amazing place in Haikou. It is highly recommended to stay here for one night.
The Film Commune is divided into three attractions: 1942 Street + Nanyang Street + Fanghua Courtyard. The inn is on 1942 Street, and the tickets are included for both streets. No tickets are required for all attractions if you go there at night.
This place is very suitable for taking photos. I brought my own small cheongsam.
You don’t need to prepare clothes specifically, there are many shops here that rent clothes for taking photos. The inn also gave two clothing experience coupons, so friends who love beauty can take as many photos as they want.
The Film Commune is divided into several themed areas. The package we bought included 1942 Street and Nanyang Street, and included admission to Fanghua Courtyard. It's cheaper to buy online, but be sure to buy in advance. The area is mainly Republican-era architecture, so wearing a cheongsam or something like that would be a great way to take photos.
Youth Courtyard, the place where Youth was filmed, should bring back many memories for those who have seen the movie.
The movie commune is for taking photos. I brought my boyfriend who is not good at taking photos, so I was not so excited to take portraits. If I were with a beautiful lady, I would probably be more satisfied with taking photos. The gate is quite grand, and there are trees of fake flowers as soon as you enter?
Haikou really recommends Feng Xiaogang Film Commune. People who come here have an illusion of traveling through time. You have to sigh at the charm of film art. The ticket price of 148 includes three theme pavilions. If you have prepared friends, you can prepare your own clothes in advance. We didn’t prepare cheongsam or Republic of China costumes, so we rented 100 sets inside.
There are many performances inside, you can watch them according to the program schedule
The package includes 1942 Style Street, Nanyang Style Street and other supporting service areas. The Chinese and foreign buildings of different styles seem to have traveled back to the Republic of China period and Nanyang style. There are many shops and restaurants along the street as well as trams.
Mothers in their 70s get free admission, and children are in college with discounts, which is great, let's review the movie scenes.
It is recommended to buy 1942 Republic of China Street + Nanyang Street, which will give you a free ticket to Fanghua Courtyard. The other attractions are actually useless. This is a magical place. After entering, it feels like you have traveled through time. It is very exciting. You can rent clothes and take pictures inside to feel the feeling of the Republic of China period. Fanghua Courtyard is a small courtyard. Those who have seen the movie will be very touched.
It has a mix of Republican-era and Western-style street styles, and it's also where the filming location for the TV series "Youth" was. It was a nice place to walk around and take photos, and I even saw a performance of throwing a ball to find a bride. It was mainly a leisure trip, so I didn't want to travel too much.
The ticket for Mission Hills Huayi Cinema (combined ticket) is 148 yuan, which includes Nanyang Street + Minguo Street + Youth Filming Base. In addition to the unique architecture, there are department stores, cinemas, restaurants, and photo studios along the street. The area is very small and can be visited in an hour. The ticket price is a bit expensive.
A great place to take photos. Of course, it would be perfect if you could take a girl there to take photos.
The main purpose is to go to Fanghua Courtyard to take photos and keep them as souvenirs.
Feng Xiaogang Film Commune consists of multiple film and television shooting landscapes such as 1942 Street, Nanyang District, and Old Beijing Street, covering an area of 930,000 square meters. It is an ancient building complex with the culture of the Republic of China period as its background.
A must-go for movie fans. Although it is a bit far away, it is still a famous attraction in Haikou. After all, it was designed by Director Feng.
With Hainan's light breeze and clear skies and vast sea, these antique buildings are really perfect for taking photos. Plus, there were really few people when we went, so we rented a set of clothes and didn't feel embarrassed to pose for photos casually. Haha, good review~
Except for the magic trick, the other magic tricks are not effective and there are random charges.
I first came across this place because of the Running Man show, where one episode was filmed. I was immediately drawn to the architecture and went there twice, one during the day and one at night. It's really beautiful, and it looks completely different during the day and at night. There are many places to play, some delicious food, and you can rent some Republic of China costumes for photos. After all, every place there is perfect for taking photos. If you're in Haikou, it's definitely fun to go there.
These are two retro streets and the actual filming location for the film "Youth." Frankly, the ticket price is quite high. Reporters, please note: this attraction is not free for journalists. The ticket price list is listed, so be careful. Because of the transparent reflective glass, you need to study it carefully.
If you're not staying there and just want to visit, I honestly wouldn't recommend it. It's just a film and television studio, nothing much to see. Of course, if you like the scenery and want to take photos, that's another matter. However, the sanitation inside is very good, and workers wash the road with water early in the morning.
As an artificial filming location, the scenery is very nice.
You can buy tickets on the door, but it is obviously more affordable to buy tickets at My Honeycomb. The package I bought (two streets and one theater) costs 128 yuan per person, and it takes about 15 minutes to get the ticket. If you have honey, you can also get some discounts.
The Avenue of Stars at the entrance is lined with celebrity palm prints. The completed section of the film community is divided into two areas: "1942 Street" and "Nanyang Street."
Although I know that everything in front of me is a replica building, haha, I am still full of enthusiasm.
To be honest, I quite like this place. Quietly looking at every building in front of me, I really feel like I am in Chongqing, the wartime capital during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.
Everything is presented with extreme care and precision; even a brick or a street lamp is presented in exquisite detail.
Walking here as a tourist wouldn't be very meaningful. For me, besides taking some photos, the greater significance lies in telling me what Chongqing was like in history. I wonder if I can travel back to the days of artillery fire.
Every building here strives to be authentic, with over 20 of them completely recreated based on old photographs. The Film Commune closes at 9 p.m.
The two 300-500-meter streets allowed me to stroll from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m., just before the park closed. This shows how much I like and admire this place. Especially for friends who like photography, this place is still highly recommended. Recommendation index: five stars
Nanyang, 1942, the filming scene of Youth!!
A relatively retro place, you can also rent costumes to recreate the movie scenes in "Youth", and there are also some experience scenes, suitable for concave shape ~
After watching Running Man, I was quite interested in Feng Xiaogang Film Commune. However, when I actually went there, I found myself a little overwhelmed about taking photos... But the retro scene is still very suitable for taking portraits.
Feng Xiaogang Film Commune is actually a film and television district named after director Xiaogang. It's divided into Nanyang Street and Minguo Street. It also features the filming location for "Youth," called "Fanghua Courtyard." A price list is available at the entrance. You can book tickets through online booking platforms or purchase them upon arrival, with similar prices. However, online tickets often require a five-minute wait before they're accepted. The district also offers food, accommodation, travel, shopping, and entertainment options, but as a tourist attraction, I personally think it's more about exploring and taking photos than anything else.
As soon as you enter the gate, you will see an alpaca lying leisurely at the door. It looks up at you with contempt, then lowers its head to drink water.
It was almost noon when we arrived at the scenic spot, and the weather was still quite hot, so maybe that's why there were not many people.
The buildings and staff in the film and television area will not make people feel that they are in a scenic spot, because the decoration of the shops and the dress of the staff are full of film and television sense, and will never let you jump out of the play. The signboard is also deliberately made to look old, and it does not look out of place at all.
My favorite is the window decoration of the shop, which is full of retro feelings.
There was a "free photo taking" gimmick on Minguo Street, so I decided to go there. After taking the photos, I found that the photos were good, but the free 6-inch photos were blurry, while the paid 8-inch photos looked much better. We thought that there were not many group photos on this trip, so although we knew we were being ripped off, we still bought them. In fact, I felt MMP in my heart. I have to say that there is nothing wrong with the marketing of the scenic spot, but as a sentimental person, it is too expensive to charge for such a name.
Feng Xiaogang Art Commune is pretty good, but it's a pity that it has not been completed. It is suitable for posing for photos, and the things inside are nothing special. For the 110 yuan ticket plus the car fare, it feels better to go to the arcade area.
Feng Xiaogang Film Commune consists of three main streets. The first thing that catches your eye upon arrival is the grand commune gate.
I booked the ticket online half an hour in advance and had to wait at the door for a while before picking it up.
Overall, Feng Xiaogang Film Commune is a very interesting man-made scenic spot and is worth visiting.
Without further ado, let's go straight to the pictures. Fanghua Courtyard is very good, and the best experience is seeing Brother Feng's palm prints.
Movie Commune, not recommended!
1. The surrounding area is deserted; 2. The ticket price is not worth it. I bought two street tickets, which are really streets. The shops are closed, and the big attractions in the street need to buy tickets separately. 3. There is no special feature. Apart from the street, closed shops and signs, there is nothing else. The performance is average. Far below expectations
The ticket is really not cheap, and I finished the tour in more than an hour! There is nothing special, just walking and watching!
Because it is the off-season, there are not many tourists in the entire cinema, which just meets the needs of my husband and me. When there are too many people, we will not see the scenery but the people, and we will not even be in the mood to take pictures!
The cinema is divided into Nanyang Street, 1942 Street, and Fanghua Courtyard. You can stroll around freely in other places except Fanghua Courtyard. If you want to go to the popular Fanghua Courtyard, you have to spend 68 yuan per person for the ticket!
On the street, you can always see little girls wearing school uniforms from the Republic of China period taking photos. In fact, I also have a Republic of China dream. After struggling for a long time, I asked my husband to accompany me to rent clothes and take some photos from the Republic of China period. Thank you, husband, for helping me realize my Republic of China dream!
We arrived around 6pm and bought three tickets on Fliggy for 1942 Street, Nanyang Street and Fanghua Garden. It was more expensive to buy tickets on site. However, after entering the main gate at night, these attractions did not charge admission tickets and no one checked tickets because Nanyang Street, 1942 Street and Fanghua Garden sold tickets separately. I don’t remember the specific time when the ticket inspection was stopped, probably around 6pm. It felt like the ticket prices were sold in a mess, probably similar to all the film and television cities. The ticket price was a bit expensive. The place inside was not very big. Because it was more retro, it was more suitable for taking pictures because of the atmosphere. I went to Fanghua Garden mainly because I wanted to experience the style of the Cultural Troupe.
A must-visit for photography enthusiasts and arty young people! The Film Commune comprises three main streets: the already completed 1942 Republic Street, and the under-construction Old Beijing Street and Nanyang Street. It also boasts three themed areas: the Feng Family Lunar New Year Film Landscape, the Church Square, and the world's largest 8,000-square-meter studio and supporting services. It also boasts a film star avenue. A combined ticket for the scenic area is 148 yuan per person (including 1942 Street and Nanyang Street).
The scenic spot is worth a visit, after all, you can find many memories from the movie, but the ticket price is a bit expensive. The scenic spot is a good place for photography.
Now that Fanghua Courtyard has been added as a new attraction, those who want to visit can now make their move. Wearing a green military uniform and walking the streets of the 1930s and 1940s, taking beautiful photos, is a great way to experience the trip.
Modeled after the streets of Chongqing featured in Feng Xiaogang's film "Remembering 1942," the 1942 Style Street showcases 91 buildings showcasing the typical architectural styles of the Yangtze River Basin's four major cities of Chongqing, Wuhan, Nanjing, and Shanghai during the 1930s and 1940s. Over 20 of these buildings have been fully recreated based on historical photographs, including Yaolu, Chiang Kai-shek's former official residence, the Xishan Bell Tower, the Chongqing Guotai Theater, and the Shanghai Rongguang Theater. Each building tells a story, evoking memories and reflections.
Costumes can be rented in the scenic area, and many tourists have changed into retro clothes to experience a different kind of travel. The scenic area also offers various performances such as flag-waving, face-changing, magic, and folk stunts.
A new tourist landmark in Haikou, I like Fanghua Courtyard the most. I recommend going in the afternoon when there are many activities.
I loved it and spent a day here. It was crowded during the Spring Festival holiday, so buying tickets took quite a while. I skipped the all-inclusive ticket and bought a two-block, one-courtyard pass. Booking through China-TravelNote was cheaper, but pick-up was slower than buying in person. The two blocks felt similar, and there were many performances, including acrobatics during the Spring Festival holiday. There's a photo studio within the scenic area that rents clothes for photos. For 150 yuan, I got two outfits and had a photographer take six photos. The photos turned out beautiful. I went there after visiting Fanghua Courtyard and loved it.
Worth the price of admission. The Feng Xiaogang Film Commune, the world's first film-themed tourism project named after a director, officially launched on October 21, 2012. Upon completion, visitors can experience the powerful scenes of "Aftershock" and savor the romantic atmosphere of "If You Are the One." Everything in Feng's films seems within reach. Located in the Mission Hills Haikou International Golf Resort in Haikou, Hainan Province.
It's a man-made attraction, but it's well-made. It takes about 50 minutes to drive from downtown Haikou. It's located in the Haikou Mission Hills Resort. The Film Commune consists of three main streets: 1942 Republic Street and Nanyang Street. The Old Beijing Street is still under construction and not open to the public. It's suitable for taking photos.
Very small, nothing special————-
The location is easy to find in the city and it's great to walk around. I used to go there often when I was in Haikou!
Located in the Mission Hills Haikou International Golf Resort in Haikou, Hainan Province, 1942 Street, the first of its kind to be opened by the Film Commune, has become a popular attraction for visitors. The street offers a variety of businesses, including restaurants, role-playing filming, souvenir shops, theme hotels, and cultural exhibitions. Visitors can enjoy the charming Republican-era architecture while also experiencing high-quality services in areas such as dining, accommodation, travel, shopping, and entertainment. Tickets are 138 yuan (combined ticket), and full-price tickets for 1942 Street only are 68 yuan per person.
Feng Xiaogang Film Commune is divided into Nanyang Street and 1942 Style Street. The Avenue of Stars is right at the entrance, and you'll see many celebrity handprints. They might look a bit worn, having been touched so many times that the colors are almost faded. Walking further in, you'll see two streets: Nanyang Street and 1942 Style Street. I heard there's another street under construction, so remember to buy a package ticket. I recommend avoiding summer, as Haikou is quite hot. Although the temperature isn't very high, hovering around 30 degrees Celsius, it can feel quite stuffy. Inside are buildings from the Republican era, and there are performances during the opening hours. If you're interested, get there early. Food and drinks are also available, and the prices are average, not particularly expensive, but I recommend buying gifts outside. Because it's quite remote, it's best to plan a half-day visit if you have time.
There are two ancient streets. One is 1942 Street, which recreates Chongqing in 1942. It is very charming and well-detailed. The other is Nanyang Street, which recreates the prosperous streets of Chinese people in Nanyang at that time. It is very beautiful when lit up at night, and there are also performances at the entrance, which is very interesting.
It's pretty good, like a film and television city, with some buildings from the Republic of China inside. It's suitable for taking pictures with special clothes.
Regarding Feng Xiaogang Film Commune, I have done enough research in the early stage and would like to share it with you. There are not many attractions in Haikou. Feng Xiaogang Film Commune is a man-made attraction and it is worth a visit, but it is a relatively "useless" attraction. My suggestion is: you can find a separate day to go there, and don't go there on the day you leave. 1. Let's talk about the location first. The geographical location of the Film Commune is not particularly convenient for transportation, and there are no other attractions around, so there is no concept of visiting along the way. Specifically, the Film Commune is about 15.2 kilometers away from Meilan Airport, on the side of the highway in the direction of the airport. To be more specific, a highway branches into two, one to Meilan Airport and one to the Film Commune. It takes about half an hour to take a taxi from the gate of the Film Commune, and it costs 40 yuan to get to Meilan Airport. There is usually no traffic jam. But! It's hard to get a taxi! Sometimes there are taxi drivers waiting for work at the gate of the Film Commune, with a fixed price, without using the meter, which is very deceptive. My personal experience is that I took a taxi from the Film Commune to Meilan Airport. The roadside taxi quoted 80 yuan. After I refused, I used the APP to call a taxi, and was instantly taken by the driver who had just quoted 80 yuan. My taxi was snatched up by the phone, completely blocking my chance to use my phone to call a taxi. They chased me the entire time, their tone remarking, "If you don't want my car, you won't be able to get another one. I'll pay my price." Don't rush at this point (this isn't recommended for visiting attractions on your last day, as you'll be rushing to catch your flight). I had no other options but to rely on my luck, and finally, I found a kind, metered taxi driver. Speaking of public transportation, there's a bus stop right outside the Film Commune, which goes downtown. Those wanting to go directly from the Film Commune to the airport can't take this bus. A taxi from Qilou Old Street to the Film Commune is about 16 kilometers, costs around 49 yuan, and takes about 40 minutes. The Old Street, the Commune, and Meilan Airport can be imagined as forming a triangle, with nearly equal sides. Tickets for Feng Xiaogang's Film Commune are 138 yuan per person at the entrance, which includes both streets. Tickets for a single street are also available. These are clearly marked on a large sign at the entrance, and you can also buy tickets online. No need to elaborate further. 3. Luggage storage. Since I went with my luggage and planned to take a taxi directly to the airport after shopping, I searched a lot before leaving but couldn't find any information about luggage storage at the Film Commune. I'm writing this down for your reference. The ticket booth at the Film Commune is a large white tent with a tourist information counter. While they do offer luggage storage, I personally wouldn't recommend it. The staff gave me two paper tags: one to tie to my luggage and one to hold as proof. However, they told me to leave my luggage myself. I was able to enter the luggage storage room directly. Just then, a woman came out to claim her luggage, and I let her in to get her own. I was surprised. I wondered: how could someone claim their luggage without checking their number tag be the same as leaving it unattended? Since I also had a laptop in my suitcase, I wasn't sure I'd leave it there. I carried my luggage with me the entire time. It was incredibly tiring, so I definitely wouldn't recommend visiting Feng Xiaogang's Film Commune on your last day.
There are many interesting things, it’s good to go shopping!!
I really think this building is not worth such an expensive ticket. The Qilou Old Street is also very beautiful, and they don't charge tickets.
The Film Commune is located in the Mission Hills Haikou International Golf Resort in Haikou, Hainan Province. It is the world's first film-themed tourism project named after a film director and was officially completed in October 2012. It includes a Walk of Fame and two main streets: 1942 Republic Street and Nanyang Street.
The first thing you step onto when you enter the park is the Movie Walk of Fame. The avenue is made up of the handprints and signatures of celebrities, which are lined up on both sides. I don’t have an exact number, but there should be dozens of them!
After walking along the Avenue of Stars, 1942 Street is on the left and Nanyang Street is on the right.
The first place we went to was 1942 Street.
1942 Street is modeled after the Chongqing streets that appeared in Feng Xiaogang's film "1942". It has a total of 91 buildings, which bring together the typical architectural styles of the four major cities in the Yangtze River Basin in the 1930s and 1940s, including Chongqing, Wuhan, Nanjing, and Shanghai.
The street offers restaurants, role-playing filming, tourist souvenirs, theme hotels, cultural exhibitions, Rongguang Theater, museums, etc. While appreciating the Republican-era architectural style, you can also experience services such as food, accommodation, travel, shopping, and entertainment.
Exit 1942 Street and Nanyang Street is across the street.
Nanyang Street embodies the arcade architecture of the Pearl River Basin, particularly Haikou, and boasts 70 buildings showcasing a blend of Chinese and Western architectural styles. The cluster of Nanyang-style buildings, including the period archways, docks, clock towers, and small bridges, is particularly captivating.
There are two places inside, one is 1942 Street and the other is Nanyang Street, with different styles, both very retro and good for taking photos
I really like this feeling, it's very unique, and I feel like I'm actually there in the scene on TV. It's a pity that only 1942 and Nanyang Street are open, and you can't go back in once you exit. Also, although I bought the ticket online, only one window was open, and it still took me an hour to get the ticket.
This was newly built later. It is some distance away from the city center. You need to take a taxi or a private car to get there. It feels similar to Shanghai.
Stop 61: Feng Xiaogang Film Commune in Haikou. AAAA. Tickets: 138 RMB, no inspection required. Retro-lovers should definitely visit this spot; every step is a beautiful photo op. It was drizzling today, and as I strolled through the nostalgic streets of the Republic of China era, the melodious sounds of old Shanghai drifted through the air, as if from a gramophone. Bronze statues of real people dotted the streets: students in Republican-era costumes, young women holding oil-paper umbrellas, elegant gentlemen in long robes, elderly men in cloth clothes, stroking their white beards, selling candied haws, and even patrolling police with batons, casually passing by. Of course, these are all scenic area staff, but their dedication to their work in the rain is a testament to the scenic area's dedication.
Those who like the atmosphere of the Republic of China will definitely like it. The buildings are all very great and have a great feeling. I heard that it is still being expanded.
I went there with my wife over the weekend and booked the Jinglan Hotel directly. Staying there saved us from having to buy tickets to the 1942 movie theater. Our king-size room was very comfortable and clean, and breakfast was included. While the food was average, it was still affordable. The Film Commune currently has two streets open: Nanyang Street and 1942 Street. Beijing Street is under construction! The streets are all very unique, with architectural styles reminiscent of old streets and ancient towns. The shops along the streets are all about folk culture, with displays of unique folk costumes and street performances. The atmosphere is very rich! I loved it! The 1942 Pub has just opened, which is actually a light music bar with a very stylish decor. I sat down with the owner for a while and had a great chat. The other dining options are a bit limited, and the food is average. The street photos are incredible! It's amazing! Overall, I highly recommend visiting!
They are all literary and artistic buildings. Since it is Feng Xiaogang Film Commune, it is naturally a place for filming. It is nice to take pictures there. You can spend 1-2 hours there, and there will be occasional street performances. It is recommended.
Mission Hills hotels are becoming more and more abundant. For tourists, it is more comfortable to stay in a hotel and have a leisurely visit.
Walking slowly step by step on Nanyang Street, I traveled through time and suddenly found myself in the old times.
There are shops on both sides of the street, all kinds of goods are on display, crowded and exaggerated billboards are everywhere, the strong commercial atmosphere shows the prosperity of the past, and the various different buildings reflect the historical return of the Nanyang style.
