Tibet to put on indoor play "Princess Jincheng" next year
Tibet will launch the indoor play "Princess Jincheng" in early 2016, which will be another epic following the play "Princess Wencheng", China Tibet News reported.
The large-scale Tibetan cultural epic "Princess Wencheng" has been shown for 179 times this year, attracting 350,000 viewers and gaining nearly 150 million yuan in revenue, an increase of 20 percent in sales from 2014. Meanwhile, its social effect has been even more noticeable, since it not only stimulated the development of Lhasa’s tourist industry, but also contributed to the promotion of Tibet’ cultural industry.
An official with the "Princess Wencheng" theme park said, watching epic "Princess Wencheng" has become a symbol of a tour to Tibet thanks to their hard work. It is expected that more programs will be launched next year.
