With Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty choosing Confucianism as the official orthodox thought, it laid the tone for traditional culture for more than two thousand years..
The Journey of the Great Way The second unit of the exhibition, “Transformation into the World”, extracts the development trajectory of Confucian culture from the perspectives of Confucian inheritance, the continuation of classics, and ideological tolerance, and displays the core civilization concepts of Confucian culture from the personal, social, and national levels.

Program Interpretation: Set in a minimalist yet exquisitely beautiful post-modern Song-style architectural environment, this dance performance captures the refined gatherings of the Song dynasty. It highlights the rituals of burning incense, brewing tea, hanging paintings, and arranging flowers, showcasing the unique aesthetic and cultural pursuits of the era. The moon serves as a guiding thread, weaving through three chapters: waiting for the moon to rise, bathing in its gentle light, and gazing upon its serene beauty. Lead dancer Tong Liya embodies the tranquil grace of a moonlit night with her elegant movements and subtle emotional expressions. Dressed in silk gowns reminiscent of the Song dynasty, the dancers glide as gracefully as fairies beneath the moonlight. The plump petals of osmanthus flowers twirl freely in the air, gently and quietly falling to the earth. This performance vividly brings to life the verse: “During Mid-Autumn’s gentle eve, / Osmanthus flower petals fall in temple’s weave. / Buddha’s scent, serene and high, / Floats softly to the sky.”
