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 tour you may go back to your hotel by yourself, or if you wish, there is an option round way transfer service from your hotel in Suzhou city centre so you won’t have to worry about anything except enjoying this activity.
