Visit: Master-of-Nets Garden, No.11 Kuojiatou Alley, Daichengqiao Road, Canglang District, Suzhou 215006 China
Meet your guide at the lobby of your hotel in Suzhou city centre and be driven to the Master of Nets Garde together with a guide that will help you collect the tickets and access the venue.
Seated in a small alley, the 800 years-old Song Dynasty Master of Nets Garden ranks among Suzhou gardens as one of the smallest in size. Yet the reputation of the garden, with its unrivalled aesthetical and architectural excellence, goes far beyond its physical scale.
When the night falls, with yellowy lights and scarlet palaces lanterns outlining the pavilions and platforms, visitors can stroll around the garden to enjoy traditional musical entertainments of Kun Opera, Suzhou Opera, Pingtan (a form of storytelling and ballad singing in Suzhou dialect), Guzheng (a Chinese zither), bamboo flutes of Di and Xiao, and other forms of folk music and dances, which are all performed by professionals in traditional costumes of generous local styles.
Highly recommended by China National Tourism Administration, the evening musical entertainment at the Master of Nets Garden provides an authentic link to the rich and vibrant culture of the Yangtze River Delta.
After the show, you will be driven back to your hotel in your private vehicle.
