At the same time, the Beijing alleys in Mr. Six, a famous movie directed by Feng Xiaogang, have also successfully been recreated along with the traditional medicine shops, Beijing pastry shops, and the lives of native Beijingers.

The opening of the traditional Beijing Street, which joins 1942 Street, Nanyang Street, the Avenue of Stars, and the Park View Area, has made Mission Hills Movie Town a destination suitable for visiting 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

The newly opened Traditional Beijing Street, which covers the largest area of all the attractions in Mission Hills Movie Town, boasts more than 70 architectural landscapes, and will become another large-scale live-action filming base in Haikou after opening. Buildings in the street mimic the architectural styles of the 1950s & 1960s, after the People’s Republic of China was founded. They are magnificent, dignified and austere.
