Yu Dream Miniature World Theme Park (Yuyuan Branch)

The exhibition hall is the first to use a combination of miniature models, mechanical art, and digital multimedia to interactively interpret the history of a city. It includes seven major themed exhibition areas, with over 500 miniature architectural landscapes, more than 10,000 miniature figures, and more than 70 interactive experiences, interestingly connecting the urban evolution of Shanghai from 1559 to 1937. The exhibition reveals the ‘Garden by the Sea’, a large-scale sand table of 6*13 meters, on which is presented a full view of Yuyuan Garden and the City God Temple Market, restored at a 1:30 scale, integrating a 4-minute holographic projection show, interpreting the origin and changes of Yuyuan Garden, as well as the ‘garden, temple, market’ of the City God Temple area. ‘Confluence of Rivers and Seas’ restores the bustling commercial atmosphere of the Huangpu River, with the prosperous and noisy business of the Shiliupu Wharf. Displayed are 13 types of sand boats and steamships, with sensory sound control and digital light and shadow, listening to the dialects lingering, feeling the vastness of the smoke and waves. ‘Battle of the North Gate’ restores the scene on January 6, 1855, when the uprising army of the Small Sword Society, which had been defending the Shanghai County City for 16 months, resisted the attack of the Qing and French allied forces and ultimately won the battle. Through the integration of new media sound and light, the audience can step into the actual battle scene of that time. ‘Chinese Boundary’ is the first generation of industrial scientific and technological achievements integrated exhibition of the Chinese boundary. Through various interactive entertainments, it reproduces historical scenes such as the old Shanghai South Station which no longer exists after being bombed by the Japanese army, the first national power generation enterprise in Shanghai – Nanshi Electric Light Factory, the earliest and largest professional beverage factory in the country – Qinle Soda Factory. ‘Modern Times’ presents the historical and cultural landscape of the Bund, Yuyuan Road, Hengshan Road – Fuxing Road historical and cultural landscape areas, and other important buildings and historical scenes through electronic sensing, mechanical dynamics, digital real-time interaction, multimedia interpretation and other technologies. Special Chapter ‘Fantasy Tales’ & ‘Thinking of the Years’ ‘Fantasy Tales’ and ‘Thinking of the Years’ are two special exhibitions custom-made by Chinese Taiwan new media artist Lin Junting for ‘Four Hundred Years of Magic Capital’. ‘Fantasy Tales’ combines light and shadow, the combination of virtual and real, and the misplacement of object proportions, allowing old objects to tell the strange stories and life of the big Shanghai. ‘Thinking of the Years’ restores a ‘Dangdang’ car, which is a tram.
