The Wuzhen Shadow Puppet Theater is located in Hanlindi in the Dongzha scenic area. The shadow puppetry shows in the theater are still performed daily. Sitting on a long bench and watching a nostalgic shadow puppetry show is an ideal choice for tourists to experience the art of Wuzhen. Segments from classic stories such as Journey to the West are very popular among children. Shadow puppetry has a history of more than 800 years in the south of the Yangtze River. Wuzhen shadow puppetry belongs to the southern school. The performances are mixed with local dialects, but this does not prevent you from experiencing this ancient folk art. Each performance is not long, about 10 minutes. After the performance, you may be able to walk behind the scenes to take a look. The old musical instruments and mottled tables and chairs are full of traces of time. The opening hours vary depending on different performance times. Specific times are subject to the actual performances.
