Water Theater and Poetry Square
The Water Theater was transformed from a fishpond. The stage was outdoor on both sides of the pond, with the auditorium only a piece of wood-paved area behind.
The audience is able to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the water town at the same time as watching a play.
The Poetry Square was next to the Water Theater, and it was originally a place for the merchants to sun-cure their silk and silkworm cocoons. The square has multiple engravings of local poets' works, hence the name. It is also one of the outdoor stages.
