## About Luzhen Town

Luzhen first appeared as a fictional place in Lu Xun’s stories such as Kong Yiji, The New Year’s Sacrifice and Village Opera. Today’s Luzhen is a theme park recreating Lu Xun’s “Luzhen” as a Jiangnan water town, a microcosm of Shaoxing’s waterside life. Stroll past the grand Lu Mansion, pause at the stage to listen to village opera, exchange a silver dollar for a cup of wine at Xianheng Tavern, and hear Xianglin’s Wife go on endlessly about her son Amao… Inside the play and out, it all feels wonderfully real.
