Zhouzhuang Ancient Town, "Zhang Ting You Xi" Immersive Water Town Wedding Customs Experience

In the Zhang Ting of Zhouzhuang Ancient Town Scenic Area, the performance "Zhang Ting You Xi" is launched, focusing on water town wedding customs and integrating Kunqu opera art. In this ancient residence from the Ming Dynasty's Zhengtong period, there is no fixed stage or audience seating. When a young man steps into Zhang Ting, he might be randomly pulled into the wedding hall by a "matchmaker," and through playful interaction and impromptu Q&A, become the "groom," lifting the red veil. Other audience members become "guests" and participate deeply. The performance lasts just over 20 minutes, condensing the essence of water town wedding customs: welcoming guests in the front hall, waiting for the bride in the side room, the Yuyan Hall groom greeting and wedding ceremony, and ending with Kunqu opera in the back garden. It combines tradition and modernity, attracting young people through immersive experience, innovatively inheriting the culture of water town wedding customs. Come to Zhouzhuang and experience this cultural journey!
