Experience a captivating journey through time as we delve into the enchanting world of Chinese shadow puppetry. This half-day tour takes you to the heart of this ancient art form at Shuyuan Gate, The Academy Gate Cultural Street, where you will learn the intricacies of crafting and manipulating these mesmerizing silhouette figures. Before the advent of Western cinema, Chinese shadow puppetry graced the stages of China, and it's the very essence from which movies originated.
