Hangzhou Songcheng: You've Been Warned (Spoiler: It's a Trap!)
-
Spot on. To sum it up: it's tacky and low-quality. I experienced it myself during the May Day holiday.
-
I was there on May Day too. It was truly awful and super expensive.
-
Not worth the ticket price.
-
All the criticisms mentioned really hit home. I initially thought it was an amusement park like Universal Studios or Disneyland. In reality, it's more of a venue with outdoor and indoor theater-style performances. You should plan your time carefully to catch as many shows as possible. The main 'Romance of the Song Dynasty' show even has a part where actresses in bikinis serve tea. As a family of three in the VIP section, that was a bit awkward. Overall, it was unremarkable – nothing terrible, but no pleasant surprises either. I wouldn't say I was disappointed; when you're traveling, you tend to check out the famous spots. The funniest thing was, halfway through, my wife remembered she'd actually been there before!
-
For families, the 'Romance of the Song Dynasty' show isn't great unless you're in VIP. But in VIP, when the bikini-clad performers came close, my survival instincts kicked in and I sensed... danger.
-
I was thinking the same thing! Did the Songcheng attraction pay for that 'Li Manei' promotion or something...?
-
And here I was, planning to go in June. Now I'm having second thoughts.
-
I went and thought it was pretty good. But hey, to each their own.
-
But aren't there 'Goddess Shujie' and 'Lin Chong' in a live-action setting, ready to 'frolic with you and fill your whole day with joy'?
-
A whole day? More like a few minutes.
-
That 'Romance of the Song Dynasty' show is the biggest rip-off. It's not even as impressive as the 'Guoxiu Langya' show in Linyi. I went today and honestly found it just average. Wouldn't recommend.
-
@OsAtLi Ah, so that's how it is.
-
For 99 yuan, it's actually pretty good! The 'Romance of the Song Dynasty' show alone made it worth the ticket price.
-
Huh? How did you get it for 99?
