Peking Opera at Liyuan Theater Tickets by China Fun Tour - When I went to Peking Opera with a private guide assigned by China Fun Tour, this unique cultural show became a gateway to understanding Chinese traditional culture. My guide is considerate and knowledgeable who provided me with an informative background on the opera story and the different characters matching the colourful costumes. The driver is friendly and the car is tidy and spotless. I definitely recommend China Fun tour!

fabulous show - Opera is not for everyone. I am glad that I was there and I loved it . The singing, dancing, martial arts, music and performance ,I thought it was beautiful and fabulous. It is an easy way to know the Chinese culture. Surprisingly, there was English subtile which helped me a lot.
