New Great Wall drama premieres in Beijing

Its production is timely, as it coincides with Yanqing's growing importance as a significant part of the hosting of the upcoming 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games.

Director, Gu Wei, sets a beautiful and elegant stage for the drama and strives for perfection — in the down-to-earth story, the life-like details and vivid languages, for instance, use of the Yanqing dialect.

The drama runs until Aug 31, before moving on to other venues in September.
