This research in action project is my piece for my master graduation in 2013. It would not have been completed without the actual involvement of my research teammates.
Of course, other efforts, though not listed, are also crucial to the success of the whole production. Our objective is to turn apathetic audiences to curious learners. Through launching outdoor performances along the historical trail, we want to provoke questions,stimulate imagination, promote active enjoyment and help visitors make personal connections to the objects in the past.
Meet Weihai
Situated in the eastern Shandong province of China, Weihai is a major seaport and attraction to tourists from all over the world. Bordering the Yellow Sea to the East, this stunning city is surrounded by water on three sides and protected by Liugong Island, a visitor-friendly island that used to be the navy base during the Qing dynasty.
In 1895, the Japanese captured Weihaiwei port, known as the Battle of Weihaiwei and the last major battle of the First Sino-Japanese War. The Japanese evacuated in 1898 and the British came into control from 1898 to 1930. In 1949, Weihaiwei City was renamed Weihai City after the Communist Revolution.
Today, Weihai is a lively city filled with a wonderfully rich culture and history. From islands and parks to war memorial museums and more, Weihai is becoming a must-visit city in China for all.

The Museum of History is hosting an exhibition on the New Territories and Weihaiwei after the First Sino-Japanese War, the first of a series to mark the 120th anniversary of the conflict's outbreak.
Featuring over 100 artefacts on loan from the National Library of Scotland related to Sir James Stewart Lockhart, a former Hong Kong Colonial Secretary and Commissioner of Weihaiwei, the exhibition showcases the changes in the two places during the early 20th century.
They include a complimentary tablet with the words Ke yi liao ji (curing people of hunger) presented by Lockhart to the Tung Wah Hospital in Hong Kong in 1920, thanking them for relief support for famine victims in Weihaiwei.
Another item on display is a cartoon The Situation in the Far East showing the separate spheres of influence of the major powers in China, drawn by a revolutionary in Hong Kong in 1899.
A 1929 map of Hong Kong showing the naming of a street in Wan Chai after Lockhart and a letter to the former official notifying him of the arrangement is also among the exhibits.
The exhibition will run until June 9. (

Beijing 4K - Walk in Old Summer Palace on Lantern Festival - China 中国北京圆明园元宵节灯会夜游行走视频
The Lantern Festival or the Spring Lantern Festival is a Chinese festival celebrated on the fifteenth day of the first month in the lunisolar Chinese calendar. Usually falling in February or early March on the Gregorian calendar, it marks the final day of the traditional Chinese New Year celebrations. As early as the Western Han Dynasty (206 BCE-CE 25), it had become a festival with great significance. During the Lantern Festival, children go out at night carrying paper lanterns and solve riddles on the lanterns.
In ancient times, the lanterns were fairly simple, and only the emperor and noblemen had large ornate ones. In modern times, lanterns have been embellished with many complex designs. For example, lanterns are now often made in the shape of animals. The lanterns can symbolize the people letting go of their past selves and getting new ones, which they will let go of the next year. The lanterns are almost always red to symbolize good fortune.
The festival acts as an Uposatha day on the Chinese calendar. It should not to be confused with the Mid-Autumn Festival; which is sometimes also known as the Lantern Festival in locations such as Singaporeand Malaysia. The Lantern Festival has also become popular in Western countries, especially in cities with a large Chinese community. In London, the Magical Lantern Festival is held annually.
he Old Summer Palace, known in Chinese as Yuanming Yuan , and originally called the Imperial Gardens , was a complex of palaces and gardens in present-day Haidian District, Beijing, China. It is 8 kilometres (5.0 mi) northwest of the walls of the former Imperial City section of Beijing. Constructed throughout the 18th and early 19th centuries, the Old Summer Palace was the main imperial residence of Qianlong Emperor of the Qing dynasty and his successors, and where they handled state affairs; the Forbidden City was used for formal ceremonies. Widely perceived as the pinnacle work of Chinese imperial garden and palace design, the Old Summer Palace was known for its extensive collection of gardens, its building architecture and numerous art and historical treasures. It was reputed as the Garden of Gardens in its heyday.
In 1860, during the Second Opium War, as the Anglo-French expedition force relentlessly approached Beijing, two British envoys, a journalist for The Times and a small escort of British and Indian troopers were sent to meet Prince Yi under a flag of truce to negotiate a Qing surrender. Meanwhile, the French and British troops reached the palace and conducted extensive looting and destruction. Later on, as news emerged that the negotiation delegation had been imprisoned and tortured, resulting in 20 deaths, the British High Commissioner to China, Lord Elgin, retaliated by ordering the complete destruction of the palace, which was then carried out by British troops. The palace was so large – covering more than 800 acres – that it took 4000 men 3 days of burning to destroy it. Many exquisite artworks – sculptures, porcelain, jade, silk robes, elaborate textiles, gold objects and more – were stolen and are now found in 47 museums around the world, according to UNESCO.
