Light Shows

Everybody told us before we headed down to Yangshuo that we HAD to see the light show. They said that it sounds cheesy, but it is an incredible thing to witness. After seeing the show, I couldn't agree more.

Every Saturday and Sunday night, and I'm sure even more often during the tourist season, 400-600 people put on the most amazing visual feast that I have ever witnessed first hand. The show was originally directed by the same guy who directed Hero, Raise the Red Lantern and the House of Flying Daggers. The show takes place on the river. The amazing mountains in the background make it a beautiful and unique setting. The hour long performance is filled with song, dance, beautiful costumes, dramatic lighting and amazing boating skills. There is really no way for me to verbally describe it. Hopefully David will post some of the video he shot. You have to see the show in action.
