    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?
