The upcoming children’s web series "Journey to the West: Kids Edition," produced by Youth Micro Vision, is about to be released. Filmed primarily at Shenzhen Splendid China, this major children’s drama garnered widespread attention during production, attracting crowds of onlookers at the filming sites who couldn’t stop praising the young actors’ performances.
Folk Village —— Mount Sanqing Sacred Realm
Adapted from one of the Four Great Classical Novels, "Journey to the West," what makes this “kids” version unique is not only its cast of post-2000 child actors, but also the incorporation of modern elements tailored for children — such as runes and Rubik’s cubes — and an entirely fresh take on the original story. It’s a children’s television series tailor-made for kids by Youth Micro Vision.
Folk Village —— Dulong Village
Folk Village —— Dai Buddhist Pagoda
As a “road movie” spanning a wide range of regions, "Journey to the West: Kids Edition" requires a variety of filming locations — from eerie demon caves and solemn temples to uniquely folkloric ancient villages. Few standard sites could meet the production’s needs. As a leader among China’s theme parks, Shenzhen Splendid China Folk Village showcases the essence of China’s diverse landscapes by replicating distinctive ethnic and cultural scenes in miniature scale. These enable the varied settings required for the storyline, greatly enriching the visual presentation of the series.
Folk Village —— Chain Bridge
With the upcoming release of "Journey to the West: Kids Edition," audiences will get to experience the unique charm of Shenzhen Splendid China Folk Village. Let’s look forward to the wonderful performances by these young actors.
