LED skyscreen creates unique ceiling for The PlaceA new retail center in Beijing features a giant suspended LED Skyscreen.A huge suspended LED screen forms the centerpiece of The Place, a new retail development in Beijing's central business district. The Skyscreen is 250 m long and 30 m wide, and was built with an investment of RMB 250 million ($32 million). The screen is suspended six stories high (80 feet) above a plaza between two new retail centers.The concept was designed by Jeremy Railton, president of Entertainment Design Corporation (www.entdesign.com), who was the original designer of the Fremont Street Experience in Las Vegas, the world's largest LED screen.Railton worked for 3 years with Aozhong Development Company on the project, which has just had its soft opening; the grand opening is expected in April.The displays were supplied by Taiwan-based LED display manufacturer Opto Tech (http://www.opto.com.tw). The screens have an open grid structure to allow natural lighting during the day.Five individual displays have been combined to form the giant screen, but the displays can also operate individually and show images in film or TV format. The screens have connections to play giant video games, and can broadcast live events, as well as showing televised events. They can advertise products, and there is even a section where visitors can upload photos of themselves or their friends.Railton has created a series of unique and dramatic shows for the skyscreen. "Creating media for the very large scale of the sky screen presents a very different challenge compared with conventional movies or television," he says. "The Sky Screen is like 'an arena in the air' so that images have to make an entrance and exit as in large scale live events."Railton was able to use his experience in designing live spectacles such has the Summer Olympics in Los Angeles and the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, to create a dramatic shows for the Sky Screen.

Zhengyang Gate, commonly known as the Front Gate (Qianmen), is located in the central south of Tian'anmen Square in Beijing. It was first built in the reign of Ming Emperor Yongle in 1419 and was called Lizhengmen (Lizheng Gate) at that time. Zhengyang Gate was the front gate of the inner city of Beijing during the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) period. Since it was located in front of the Forbidden City, so it was also called Front Gate (Qian Men). Zhengyang Gate was one of the nine capital gates of the old Beijing city. It was an intact defending architecture system in ancient time and composed of three parts that were the city gate tower, the watchtower and the inner city. However, Zhengyang Gate has under many damages and repairs during the past half-century, only the city gate tower and the watchtower are well preserved at present, and these two buildings were once the symbol of the old Beijing city. With 40.36-meter high, 41-meter wide and 21-meter deep, the city gate tower has a solid base and is trimmed with gray pantiles and green glazed tiles in the double-eave and Xieshan style. The watchtower was built in 1439 during the Ming Dynasty in a style resembling that of the city gate tower. Altogether there are 94 embrasures open to the east, west and south sides. The watchtower totally has three doors, four floors with five mansions in the rear. The total height of the watchtower with its platform is 38 meters, which makes the watchtower the highest one among those in Beijing. On the first floor, an exhibition named Beijing in History introduces the folk customs of Beijing.else see:http://beijingjoy.com/attractions/zhengyanggate.htm360-degree panorama photography by yunzeng liu

the Nine-Dragon Wall located in BeiHai Park, Bejing, our designer became impassioned with the idea of modeling our graphics after this beautiful work of art. There are three Nine-Dragon Walls in China. The biggest and oldest of which, located in Datong, Shanxi, was built during the Liao Dynasty (916~1125 A.D.). The most sophisticated and beautiful one is the one in BeiHai (North Sea) Park in Bejing. The third wall is in front of the Ningyong Gate in front of the former Imperial Palace. The main body of the walls are engraved with nine huge dragons, and each dragon is playing with a unique jewelry ball. The dragons were painted in different colors with a three dimensional visual appearance, and were handcrafted with the highest level of workmanship. The wall in BeiHai Park was built in 1756. It is 21m. long, about 15m. high, and 1.2m. thick. It is faced with 424 seven-color ceramic tiles, and after hundreds of years the colors of the tiles remain brilliant. In the center of the wall is a giant dragon, flanked by four dragons on each side. In addition to these nine large dragons are 626 smaller dragons spanning edge to edge, totaling 635 dragons in all. else see:http://www.trueswords.com/nine_dragon_wall.php360-degree panorama photography by yunzeng liu
