Review for: Impression West Lake Ticket

The confirmation ticket is very fast; you can arrive 30-40 minutes early to get settled. Staff will escort you to your seat and provide a device that creates scents during the performances. The play was good, but it used a lot of foreign music, such as the Black Swan ballet or Beethoven's music. I would have preferred to immerse myself more in Chinese music.

Amazing!! Impression West Lake (印象西湖 Yìnxiàng Xī Hú /yin-sshyang sshee hoo/) is an evening spectacle of music, light, and dance, entirely staged on the beautiful West Lake in Hangzhou City, with natural mountains and real waters as its backdrop. It is one of the creations of famous Chinese director Zhang Yimou, and the music of the performance was composed by Kitaro, a world-class musician.

A wonderful light and water dance show, with the clear and tranquil beauty of the West Lake. The fusion of Eastern culture with Western elements is particularly exciting.

It's really beautiful and the performance is wonderful! The seat is near Quyuan Fenghe and at the intersection directly opposite Yuewang Temple. After buying the ticket with Klook, go directly to the automatic monthly pass machine next to the entrance to scan the QR code and get the physical ticket!

Review for: Impression West Lake Ticket

Here is a 50-word review: A spectacular show! Amazed by the sheer number of dedicated performers on a cold winter night and the massive, elaborate structures built over the water to stage it. A magical, unforgettable experience. A 'supper' ending: grabbing warm McDonald's after the show. Don't need front row seats; standard ones will do.

Review for: VIP Seat

Hassle free when it comes to ticket collection. Just have to show the voucher and your passport at the counter. For the show itself, fantastic show I would have to say. I watched the show in winter and I would say the lower temperature makes the show more enjoyable for myself.
