In this work, we present a comprehensive study for a filament-embedding active region as determined from observations from multiple facilities including the Chinese H alpha Solar Explorer. We find three types of dynamic features that correspond to different thermal and magnetic properties, i.e., the overlying loops-1 MK cool loops, the moss region-2-3 MK hot loops' footprints, and the sigmoidal filament. The overlying cool loops, which have a potential field, always show Doppler blueshifts at the east footprint and Doppler redshifts at the west, indicating a pattern of "siphon flow." The moss-brightening regions, which sustain the hot loops that have a moderate sheared field, always show downward Doppler redshifts at the chromosphere, which could be a signature of plasma condensing into the inner region adjacent to the filament. The sigmoidal filament, which has strongly sheared field lines along the polarity inversion line, however, shows a different Doppler velocity pattern in its middle part, i.e., an upward Doppler blueshift at the double-J-shaped stage indicating tether-cutting reconnection during the filament channel formation and then a downward redshift showing the plasma condensation for the sigmoidal filament formation. The present work shows overall properties of the filament-embedding active region, constraining the heating mechanisms of different parts of the active region and providing hints regarding the mass loading of the embedded filament.
