I saw it live in june 2023. The most beautiful show I ever watched
The Chinese sure know how to put on a show. The Olympics were by far the most impressive ever and this was also very beautiful. I guess no one can top the energy and creativity of over a billion people.
and faultless execution too by about a thousand performers on stage, counting all singers, symphony players, dancers.
India over a billion of peoples are possible to make it too
@雨润枫华科技人文 The U.S. is collapsing also from the weight of corruption and the government's blatant disregard of the welfare of it's people.
@Maple in Rain Your self-portrait is amazingly lifelike!
@Maple in Rain 傻逼
the director is also the director of 2008 Beijing olimpic opening ceremony ,his name is "Zhang yi mou(张艺谋)"
After watching the 2008 Olympic game show, i came to here. Man, the 2021 Tokyo Olympics totally changed my view on Japan.
2023 Chinese new year still watch ing the show
I am a violinist and played in orchestra for 20 years...they actually used the Original version of Beethoven famous end of 9th Symphony.
Wish China will be better and better, from Germany

It's 2021 and I m still here watching this show!
中國的藝術表演一絕，非常有幸能觀看這精彩絕倫的表演，超壯觀美麗，簡直不知道怎樣形容，It's amazing 👍👍🎉🎊🥳🥳💪💪
My very first (rightfully!) mind-blowing "encounter" with Hangzhou, which became the kind of city which taught me how to become a more appreciative human being. What a Masterpiece it was! Thank you China
Stunning. No asian blood in me, however I wish the western culture would concentrate more on beauty of nature. Very inspirational and visually gorgeous.
+Angie Marie Then what are they? Should the ceremony hire some rappers with tattoos and nose piercings from the US to sing about anal sex, in your opinion?
Welcome to China
A Hendrix There will always be naysayers and sourpusses in this world.
China always amazes me.. Beautiful people and equally beautiful country.. It has become super power infront of us and hence a lot more admiration...
+James Porter You're totally brainwashed. You know nothing about China.
Do you get good pay for distorting China by those ridiculous lies? Or are you just so brain damaged to think logically? 1.5 million of people, lol, do you really know how much is this number? If 1.5 million of people were murdered, their friends, their families, how many people could that be? Over 10 million! That would be a huge chaos. And body organs selling is the biggest joke, do you really know how organ transplantation works? They must be matched in limited time. Also, where do you find 1.5 million recipients on earth? Dalai Lama is nothing but a political clown. Fa lun gong is paid by many western countries, they make up dirty and stupit lies to brainwash people like you. They are everywhere just like roach. HongKong? Taiwan? They are always part of China if you know a little bit of history.
兄弟挺你，就为你这个名字
Westlake, Guqin, the choirs, the dances, opera, Hangzhou and so much more. Overwhelming. Heartwarming 🇨🇳.
This is the greatness of China !!!

This performance was magical! No other can compete! Long Live China and Love to our Big Brother Beijing!
From farmers to the planet Mars... what a group of amazing human beings.
The show, performers, set up, area, stage, background and presentation were spectacular!!! I am not Chinese but I feel proud. No country has ever put on such a outdoor show for world leaders. Such incredible planning and meticulous timing. China is really a rich cultural powerhouse. The leaders fortunate enough to attend really should be astounded. President Xi and First Lady and China really did such a good job to welcome everyone. Bravo to China!
thank you~

People tend to forget their identities as a nation when putting their own showpieces
2021 still watching.🙏🙏🙏🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️🧧🧧🧧👍👍👍👌👌👌🥰
Chinese Know How To Put Together Fantastic Show’s, I Wish I Was There To See This Live 🌺⛩
Magnificent show!!! This must be the most exquisite outdoor show in the world to this date!!!
Spiritually elevating, esthetically graceful & elegant, culturally blending , & integrating traditional dance with water & high technology ( holograms, 3-D?) !!
Congratulations to Director Zhang Yimou, he should seriously be considered for an award of Lifetime Achievement from UNESCO ( Create one if it doesn't exist! ), Hollywood Oscar, Cannes & Golden Horse Motion Picture Awards, ... etc.
He did it not for personal awards but for the duty of Humanity.

No word can describe the stunning beauty that I just watched.
Long time ago a Chinese teacher said to me, it was hard to put on The Swan Lake, because though one or two good dancers were easy to find, it was hard to find 4 dancers for the group dances. Now we have two dozen swans, plus 50 fake ones. What a spectacle.
guess everything is possible in China
it is new teconolgy, Holographic 3D projection, you never heard it ? you must out of time

You are out of new era.
听到《梁祝》时浑身起了鸡皮疙瘩，记得曾经推荐给外国友人听此曲，友人说这首曲子就是他印象里的中国音乐，柔曼而隽永，美丽并忧伤。之后看到字幕介绍了伯牙和钟子期之间的故事，才想起这才是我真正喜爱的中国意境。最后，请楼下那些喷子能否不要在这里开骂，玷污了美轮美奂的表演。还有，表演虽好，但也没必要和里约比较，真正的美不是通过贬低别人来凸显自己，拿出你的胸襟和度量。
梁祝听哭了
感觉这次吕老师拉得没之前好，不知道是不是因为录音的原因有点干。
I have Polish roots, I am impressed, beautiful. Me and many Poles like the Chinease art, it's different from European. Especially I like the watercolor paintings - I like it very much. I have 3 small pictures after my dead Family (1 was in China).
Zhang Yimou has directed many excellent films.This is one of his finest productions Congratulations to all involved, to the Chinese people, their leadership, and to President Xi. You are an inspiration to us all!!!
China brings hope that there is goodness in people. From promoting culture to restoring the beauty, health n wealth to the land n thus the people everywhere, what is there not to applaud n join in China's efforts? Respect n praise from Singapore! ❤️❤️❤️
now is 2019, but I still watch this amazing show. Still amazes me!
David S. Yao welcome to china
2022 still amazes me
I am so proud for my hometown, some of sections in this gale are perfect mach Hangzhou's feature. The first perform was a dance to imitated the movement of people who were picking green tea's leaf from tree plants. Because Hangzhou product a famous green tea which called LongJing Tea.The second perform was YUE opera which also originated in ZheJiang province.
I love Hangzhou too. Been there 2 times. there's something about that place that seems to be calling me back. Im a foreigner working in Shanghai.
great
me too........loved it!!! Want to visit again!
Your English makes your hometowner ashamed. LOL
Leonard Guo yes, he is chines, english- seconed lang.
It is a fantastic performance and it is the only one in the world.
It is so beautiful and wonderful show.
what a beautiful performance ... the kids so cute and talented the little girl smile and those cheeks lol... real music real artistic and cultural expressions Bravo China!
China is a beautiful country.' welcome to China '
Magnifique ! Reflète si bien la merveilleuse âme Chinoise. Wo ai ni Zhong Guo !!!
我人在多伦多，2020年11月23日还在看的请点个赞吧。
the show was so beautiful and the most beautiful moment was the ending where you can see the happy faces of all the world leaders present. Truly a moment of happiness. I feel so proud to of chinese and hangzhou heritage
Is it a stage, or a riverside? Whatever, it is absolutely amazing. Very high appreciate to the designer, world class
in a lake. there should be something underwater.
xi'hu or westlake
about 3 centimeters underwater
stage in the water
Before G20， there has been another opera named the memory of west-lake. Different from this video, memory of west-lake is more related to the local culture with Chinese ancient dancers and songs. In my view, I like the memory of west-lake more than this opera on G20 summit. Welcome to hangzhou, and you can enjoy the memory of west lake any day.
Jeez this is spectacular Fifa and the Olympics can learn a thing or two from China this is amazing. The lady who sang solo was on repeat for me, a voice like that could bring world peace, lol.
We witnessed it in 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Now he did it again for 2018 Winter Olympic Games in Pyeongchang, South Korea and 2018 Asian Games in Jakarta, Indonesia
I am proud of to be a Chinese.
Now Chinese can even walk on water!!!
lol. It is a good one
we are very proud of what you did to black and American Indian, lol
Yea, we are proud of freeing Tibetans from Dalai lama and other slave owners.
*****
Its incredible that Western treat that political clown as a sage. What a shame for religion.
Hangzhou is my hometown! I am really proud!
Wow, a fireworks show in China !!! Their fireworks is a beautiful spectacle, so well organized. This water show is fit for an emperor.
Chinese culture is very rich, from ancient civilization onwards to the 21st century. Great production.
I have to appreciate the show...so much work....very good violinist ...amazing ...
I love Hangzhou. Beautiful City. Beautiful People. Wish to see Hangzhou again.
China did its best in 2008 Olympics, this is to second that helmed by same director Zhang Yimou. I must say it was awesome and spectacular! Well done China!
又看了一遍，中国文化太迷人了，很伟大的国家。 watched this video once again，Chinese culture is very charming, great country.
美翻了！不光是中国传统文化的展现，还第一次看到在湖里表演的天鹅湖，最后伴随着欢乐颂冉冉升起的g20和漫天的花火，就算转播也是身临其境。We like peace and look forward to work together with the world and really hope the world could learn about us more. Welcome to China!
Thank you to all of the artists who planned, executed, and portrayed Chinese history of Hang zhou through such a magnificent performance! I hope it brings the world closer in the family of mankind.
China, one of the first 4 Civilizations of Humanity, amongst India, Egypt and Mesopotamia. I hope this first Civilizations portray a living Poem for all of us, and that this G 20 work for eternal Peace and survival of all of us, Humankind.
if its without the us there will be definitely peace
江南忆，最忆是杭州；山寺月中寻桂子，郡亭枕上看潮头。何日更重游！
Its beyond beautiful. It is breathtaking. Thank you China for putting up such a great performance. I have been to Hangzhou west lake once. It was mighty splendid and beautiful. I am sure with all the show display it was magical.
Yet another spectacular display of Chinese talent. The greatness of this nation cannot be expressed in the frameworks of words. Long live China!
wow, it is a really really excellent and beautiful show! i must say it is really v v nice performance and great effort from the people of china. 100 marks! congrats with best wishes from singapore
Thank you very much. You also can watch a similar show named " 印象西湖” by Zhang Yimou in Hangzhou if you travel there.
Very beautiful and gentle. All the ethereal nature of Chinese art and done so well.
Very impressive and very beautiful I loved seeing President Xi Jinping so well pleased with this magical closing ceremony.
I'm proud to see this performance as a Chinese!
Yeah,I agree with that,all the human being,we are family.It's important to understand the most truethful things in the world.
Thank you very much for beautiful and majestic performance!!! Especially to ... the great artists and performers. As Chinese saying ... "10 minutes on the stage, ten years of preparation". Thank you People Republic of China for bring the whole world together. Peace on earth!!!
But it cost a lot of money！
这是西湖的一个表演项目 忆江南 每年收入上亿。你的脑子不会懂的。
Stunning! I saw Impression West Lake last year in Hangzhou, simply extraordinary!
so incredible performances .love u China
This absolutely awesome performance was the result of meticulous planning and punishing schedule. The Chinese have gone to great lengths, the extra mile, to welcome the world to the ancestral homeland of Chinese everywhere. Entire swathes of residential properties were purchased at above market prices just to make way for the reinvention of Hangzhou. I salute the government of Xi Jin Ping because she has done a great job and brought awareness to the culture of the Chinese while honouring the beauty of the international communities around us. Well done, China. #ChineseWelcome
+James Porter Jesus Christ, are u still living in Middle Ages?
You have said it all Rykel, it was out of this world, this kind of music and dance and even clothing we used to hear and see in the movies only, this was really carefully planned.
James Porter Sourpuss. Naysayer. Communist China has lifted over 500 million out of poverty. Your comment snacks of ignorance. Xi jinping is committed to lift hundreds of millions more out of poverty.
Truly magnificent! The scale and variety I doubt any other can or would have staged like it.
杭州是个温婉的城市，现代与古典的结合，高楼大厦间夹杂些许民间纯朴，和厦门有点像，其实中国很多城市都有这个特点，美丽的城市，美丽的国家，山清水秀，地灵人杰，很高兴是中国人，一直觉得...
厦门跟杭州应该不具可比性吧？杭州是千年古都，江南历代精粹所在。 青岛，大连，或者哈尔滨，应该跟厦门有比较多的相似性吧？ 南方城市中南京，苏州和杭州比较类似
严格上来说应该是沿着京杭大运河苏南浙北的城市才会比较相似。南京因为是多朝都城，被称为南方的北方城市。
好吧，感觉某些地方有点像

我是杭州人，Z个国内城市，感觉厦门的气质和杭州最像。在厦门居住期间，恍惚间，打开窗户 感觉自己还在杭州
salute from Saudi Arabia
It’s amazing. Chinese people are very hospitable. A lot of people from the west may not understand how far people will go to make their guests feel welcome.
I can only say "superbly beautiful"!
I’m proud of to be a neighborhood of China 🇨🇳
which neighbor?
Amazing, speechless. I love that duet dance and the huge fan~
Cheers. A fantastic show designed by ZhangYimou, who ever directed the open ceremony of Beijing 2008 Olympic
Andrew Wong And the director of the masterpiece "Raise the Red Lantern" movie.
He also directed the closing ceremonies of the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympic Games. Recently received special award from Venice Film Festival for his contributions to Chinese and world cinema. His upcoming movie, Shadow, will hit Chinese cinemas this September.
中华文化太牛了。。全世界一个西方，一个东方。 延续了几千年都没断的中华古老文明。此生无憾。。
14:22 when the Liangzhu music started my eyes went wet, it's about an ancient love story, so beautiful
Fantastic thanks
Chinese are really good at organising events. Spectacular.
The artistic side of China! Breathtaking!
one of the best shows i have ever seen.
China was the world No 1 in the 2800 years of the last 3000 years. China is starting to return to its normal position in history. And remember, China has been a peace-loving nation throughout that entire history. When China leads the world affairs, there won't be international bullying like today. If China had been a country like Japan, do you think Japan would have any chance to invade and massacre China like it did? or would it have a chance to still exist today as a country? or would Europeans have any chance to take the America continent? So the world has no reason to fear a stronger China which for a great part has been forced to become stronger by the constant threat of US military power in the last 60+ years.
no1 in what?? if it's about wealth and culture ur dead wrong
your comment is very understandable. a lot of you will feel quite uncomfortable about this for quite some time.
zzobs again beating the bush . ur arguement is same like those islamists who claims the same thing. if u have something then show in???
garrett chan i've no problem with u think ur country is awesome but i've a problem with JINGOISM . that's why i asked him what are those claims and he couldn't come up with
garrett chan sure MR.0 !!! afterall 0 is a very powerful number but it lacks value unless 1 comes ahead of it. have fun MR.0
and here I thought Beijing 2008 was a one time suprise. Kudos! to Zhang Yimou and China for the splendid eye opener.
regards from an ethnic chinese
He also did the closing ceremonies for 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympic Games in South Korea earlier this year
Simply the most exquisite show. Really beyond words.
Greetings from Serbia! 🌸💞💓
Zheng YiMo is a better director in visionary effect than film. The show is really great!
Kellyn1212 Really? He directed that masterpiece of a movie "Raise the Red Lantern." One of the great movies ever. Another is Ju Dou.
Awesome!! Really Amazed and Speechless for this Show!! Wonderful China!!
Very good performances to be honest. Chinese traditional culture is very well presented in the show.
Many thumbs up for such wonderful show. Where is the "thumbs up" bottom?

So beautiful.... so many performers!
This show was played at a thousand years old lake -- West Lake（XiHu）. At the beginning, it was a part of story about the 1st emperor of Qin, then it was used to dredge canals in Song Dynasty. Today, this lake met important people from all over the world. As if you can see and touch the development of two thousand years. This makes me very touched and proud of being a Chinese young people.
I love my chinese people! They are so gracious and full of class.
Zi-chen & Shalom✌
AWESOME and very Beautiful, (saved to favourites)
It's the first time I ever watch a ballet ensemble dancing Swan Lake in water. The choreographer focuses too much on the visual effect with the Corps de Ballet, which makes the performance unique. I would have loved to watch the whole piece with the leading ballerina dancing solo both as Odile, the white swan and Odette the Black Swan - very challenging roles.
I would like it too.
It is about visual effect, very pleasing to the eye.
Do you know how scary that is? Dance on the water is nothing new, ballet and en pointe is hard to be done with the slippery surface.
Apparently they had plenty practice, and performed extremly well.
A Lynn I think they have done something to the surface of the stage as well. If it were that slippery, some music instrument may fall down or move when the stage is moving.
WOW....congratulations to all involved in that performance. Hangzhou was an excellent choice of cities to host the G20 summit, a city I thoroughly enjoyed as a tourist in 2012.
祖国万岁！敬告各位海外同胞，纠缠过去的历史毫无意义，我们要与时俱进，历史不应忘却，更不应该成为包袱！
什么海外同胞？纠缠的全是狗粮，民运，法轮，呆湾，傻港，等
I am proud of my country!
welcome to China here have a beautiful scenery and delicious food, and beautiful music. dance
Artistically spectacular and very well organized show!
love from India
Akhilesh Kumar thanks br o
one of the best out door performance i ever view...probably the best, Amazing .
Amazing ,amazing ,amazing , impotant things must for three times!!!!
brilliant show of the G20 summit
Only a master can play the piano like that.
No doubt, those beautiful ladies spent many long hours training to achieve such perfection. I am in awe from start to finish. Well done!
The Belt & Road Forum evening gala r spectacular! This is a world class performance! So powerful & uplifting. The Orchestra, the Instruments & Choreography is really brilliant. The background.landscape, it was magnificent. The "Except From Swan Lake" ballet is breath-taking. The show brings back the rich culture & traditions of China & different stories of Legends "MoonLit Night on Spring River," "Picking Tea," and "Beautiful Love Story" between Zhu Yintai & Liang Shanbo is fascinating! Thank you for uploading!!
It is so beautiful and the the only one in the world. It is a wonderful show.
