Song Dynasty Town (Songcheng) is the largest theme park in Hangzhou, featuring the cultural characteristics of the Song Dynasty (960 - 1279 AD). Its layout and architectural style are based on a precious ancient painting, 'Along the River during the Qingming Festival', which was made by famous painter Zhang Zeduan, displaying the urban landscape and people's living condition of that dynasty.
The theme park is divided into three fields, Performing Songcheng, High-tech Songcheng, and Cultural Songcheng. Performing Songcheng includes the Romance of the Song Dynasty and ten theme shows. High-tech Songcheng has many featured events, such as reproducing area of 'Along the River during the Qingming Festival', two distinguishing haunted houses, and a mysterious street. Using advanced technology, they are all very realistic and mysterious, giving visitors a totally different experience. Cultural Songcheng covers some folk activities, such as traditional workshops, custom shows and Buddhist temples.
Romance of the Song Dynasty
It is a large panoramic show, based on the historical stories and ancient myths of Hangzhou city, featuring dancing and acrobatics to cover China's culture and traditions. It is praised by overseas media as one of the world's three most famous shows, together with the O Show in Las Vegas and the Moulin Rouge in Paris.
There are five scenes in the whole show. The introductory scene dates back to ancient times, displaying the historical development of Hangzhou city. The first scene exhibits the prosperous living condition of the city during the Southern Song Dynasty (1127 - 1279 AD), while the second scene tells audiences a story about a general named Yue Fei (1103 - 1142 AD), who was a hero fighting against the dynasty's enemy. The third scene presents the fairy tales and beautiful love stories which happened around the West Lake (a famous spot in Hangzhou), and in the last scene audiences are exposed to the charm of modern Hangzhou city.
It is said by the audiences that if you miss this dancing show, then you have not been to Hangzhou. The show is not only a performance, but also a symbol of Hangzhou, representing the city's history and culture.
The advertisement for the show reads: A must see in the lifetime! I didn’t believe it until I experienced it. Now I rate it as the best thing to do in Hangzhou!

什么玩意，俗不可耐的农家乐审美，中国美院所在地，就舍不得哪怕请一个美院学生把关一下吗，哪个犄角旮旯里请的小学毕业生做的舞美设计。跟宋朝一毛钱关系都没有，每一件汝窑瓷器都要气的粉身碎骨。只是杭州类似迪士尼的主题公园给游客看的歌舞表演，麻烦不要用宋朝舞蹈这么严肃的标题。

[@NookCrannyTrips]

Thanks for your comment. I wish I could understand Chinese.

[@ayemyamu]

不好看、看过宝塚的舞蹈才知道优劣.

[@NookCrannyTrips]

Thanks for your comment. Then I will have to go and see Takarazuka dance somewhere. Do you know a good place in Shanghai? Otherwise we have plans to visit Japan and there we will probably find one. We love traditional dances 😍😍😍
