Kunqu Museum, because it is an intangible cultural heritage, so obviously much larger than the Suzhou Pingtan Museum next door. Kunqu's costumes are really beautiful and gorgeous. The museum has a lot of collections, but I feel that Kunqu is going downhill. Unfortunately, The temple is a familiar song.

    The site of the Kunqu Museum, formerly known as the Quanjin Assembly Hall, covers an area of about 5 acres. It was built by Shanxi Yusu merchants during the Qing Guangxu period and is the most complete one of more than 100 club halls in Suzhou history. The Kunqu Museum exhibition is very rich in content, and different exhibition areas highlight different themes... From the Kunqu History and Talking Exhibition Area to the Kunqu Exhibition Area in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, to the Kunqu Exhibition Area in New China, it shows the rise and fall legend of the ancestor of the hundred plays. Kunqu, whose artistic value is recognized by the world, is a niche art. She combines the great achievements of Chinese classical art and aesthetics. Her unique and deep aesthetic tradition and unique oriental style have been a constant charm for people through centuries of vicissitudes.

    The China Kunqu Museum is located in Suzhou, the birthplace of Kunqu, on the historic protection block of Pingjiang in the ancient city. It is a key cultural relics protection unit in the country. The museum has the most exquisite ancient stage in Suzhou, which is open to the public for free. The museum is mainly dedicated to exhibitions, displays, collections and research. The most worth seeing is the ancient stage here, which is beautifully constructed and is the best place to watch the ancient stage performances.

    Pingjiang Road in Suzhou is very good, love at first sight. The furnishings of the new store, with a historical house, complement each other. From time to time, the sound of ping-tan silk bamboo is heard, and the sound of Kunqu music is heard from far away, revealing a strong long-running cultural heritage! The Kun Opera Museum is open here, and it is really a place to choose. The Kun Opera Museum is full of large, and there are several courtyards after entering, but unfortunately they are not open to the outside world. The first room opened has a stage, with costumes and musical instruments on both sides. Inside, the 2nd floor is a tea room, and there are many antiques. Going out of the courtyard, there is a tall ancient stage, imagine the scene of the former Daguan nobles listening to the play here. Opposite the stage, there are many introductions to Kun Opera.
