01

Why visit Splendid China Folk Culture Village

Miniatures let visitors compare landmarks such as the Forbidden City, Leshan Giant Buddha and Stone Forest in a short distance. The village and staged programmes add a different kind of visit, so neither area should be treated merely as a path to the evening show.

Performances offer a reason to stay beyond a quick circuit of the miniatures.

How to visit

  1. 01

    Get the live map and performance list before beginning the miniature circuit.

  2. 02

    Select a few landscapes, then cross to the village with time for food and rest.

  3. 03

    Keep the final part of the visit around your chosen show venue instead of making another cross-park detour.

03

Read the ticket alongside the programme

The operator advertises productions including Dragon and Phoenix Dance China, Oriental Costumes and Desert Legend. Their availability, venue and admission conditions need to be read for your date. Leave time to get to the performance area; being inside the park does not mean you can reach a distant stage instantly.

04

An evening visit changes what you can see

The current official weekday schedule lists evening admission from 17:30. That can suit a performance-led visit, but it leaves less daylight for detailed miniature architecture. If those models are the reason you are coming, buy a product that gives you enough daytime access.
