Daming Palace Banquet (A panoramic immersive Tang Dynasty cultural dining experience) uses the Daming Palace as its backdrop and the glorious Tang era as its banquet setting. It not only recreates the magnificent scene of “envoys from all nations paying homage to the imperial court,” but also serves as a vivid testament to the economic revitalization of the train station-Daming Palace district driven by Ziqiang Road in the new urban area. From a single banquet to an entire city, from one building to a whole district, a narrative of cultural revival, commercial integration, and urban renewal is quietly unfolding here. This is far more than just a meal—it’s an immersive cultural journey across time and space. Inspired by the Daming Palace complex, the banquet features eight thematic scenes including “Vermilion Phoenix Welcomes Guests,” “Thousand Palaces’ Silken Robes,” and “Melodies of All Nations,” paired with imperial cuisine innovated from ancient Tang recipes, recreating the grand dining rituals of the Tang Dynasty. Guests can experience Tang-style makeup and attire, holding silver chopsticks while toasting and reciting poetry, becoming “figures within the banquet’s living painting.”
