Taihu Ancient Town

Taihu Ancient Town, a new town that blends modernity with antiquity, and technology with ancient charm, may not have a history as long as Nanxun Ancient Town or a culture as profound, but it has its own characteristics. It represents the high-tech transformation of history, applying technology to the past to usher in a new era, which will eventually become history itself, signifying the iteration of times. The evening show 'The Enchanting Taihu' is both spectacular and exquisite, consisting of a five-act drama: Traveling Through Ancient Times, Recalling the Past of Gouwu, The Wuyue Turmoil, A Startling Dream in the Garden, and The Prosperous Qianlong Era. From the ancient legend of Yu the Great controlling the waters to the smoke-filled battles of Wuyue, from the heart-wrenching farewells of the ten-mile bridal procession to the boat trip on Taihu Lake by Xi Shi and Fan Li, from the dreamy and confusing love story of Du Liniang and Liu Mengmei to the historical travels of Emperor Qianlong in the misty rain of the Jiangnan region, every beam of light and color perfectly captures the emotional essence of the storylines, allowing one to experience firsthand the thousand-year culture of the Taihu Lake basin and the past and present of the Wuyue land.
