Hanfu & Photoshoot
Traditional dress, court makeup and a photographer through the caves.
Six Thousand Square Metres
Experiences
The show is two hours. The building is a day. Studios, grottoes, a rooftop and a gallery — most of it open to ticket holders at no extra cost.
The Signatures
Eight things worth staying for
The show is the reason you come. These are the reasons you stay all day.
Workshops
Beaded bracelets, mural painting, calligraphy masterclass and sound healing.
Gallery Tours
Sandstone grottoes, stone Buddhas and a thousand years of Silk Road art.
Rooftop Yoga
Morning and evening sessions above the old town rooftops.
Live Music
Sets on the roof terrace, running long after the last course is cleared.
Rooftop Cinema
Films under the sky, with the Beisi Pagoda on the skyline.
Private Celebrations
Birthdays, weddings and parties, held inside the caves.
Corporate & Groups
Team building, receptions and tour groups, built around your evening.
A Cultural Destination
Learn the Silk Road, don't just read about it
Walk sandstone grottoes and painted caves. Watch a master grind mineral pigment. Taste eight courses that trace the road from Chang'an to Samarkand. Then paint, string beads, or sit down to sound healing yourself.
This isn't a show with a gift shop attached. It's six thousand square metres of Silk Road history you can see, eat, hear and make with your own hands — and one of the things worth crossing Suzhou for.
Stillness
Wellness
Morning and evening sessions in the open air, above the old town roofline.
Gong baths with traditional instruments — one of the three Silk Tour experiences included with a dining ticket.
Guided sittings in the quiet rooms off the gallery corridor.
Traditional preparation and a tasting flight of medicinal teas.
After Dark
Social
Rooftop service every evening as the light goes off the pagoda.
Sets in the social bar, running long after the last course is cleared.
Screenings under the sky on the roof terrace, seasonally.
Regular gatherings for Suzhou's international and creative communities.
Groups & Celebrations
Take the whole room
Birthdays, weddings, private parties, corporate evenings, team building and tour groups. For parties above twelve — or for full private hire of the theatre — we will build the evening around you.
