Mazu Film and Television City

Mazu Film and Television City, also known as Mazu Pinganli, was originally built for the 38-episode mythological television drama Mazu starring Liu Tao. The park still preserves Song-style buildings, life-story scenes, and drama props, which sit against the beach and sea to form a vivid picture of a Song-dynasty fishing village rich in a thousand years of history and culture. It recreates the historical setting of the birthplace and youth of Mazu, the Goddess of Peace on the Sea, and serves as a base for studying and promoting Mazu culture.

The park is divided into five functional areas: the Mazu television and Meizhou customs display area, the whale specimen and marine life viewing area, the Song fishing village and filming-scene tour area, the deity pilgrimage and Dragon Palace interactive exploration area, and the seafood and fishing-family customs experience area.

Entering Pinganli, visitors see stone bridges, old walls, aged houses, tiled roofs, and paths lined with greenery, with the sound of waves and wind in the trees nearby. Visitors in Hanfu move through the scenery, and a few more steps along the stone road and shaded paths reveal a broad view of sea and sky. Here, visitors may enjoy three kinds of blessings: sights, sounds, and flavors.
