For a different garden experience, it’s definitely worth visiting the Master of the Nets Garden by night. The garden is transformed by lanterns and the sounds of traditional music fill the air. Each section of the garden shows a different performance and you are free to wander through the areas at leisure. Kun opera is performed and you’ll see a number of traditional and local instruments being played, accompanied by the soft tones of the Suzhou dialect. There are nightly performances between mid-March and mid- November. It’s worth visiting in the week as shows can be very busy weekends. The show is particularly memorable if you’re here for a full moon, which appears three times – in the sky, in the pond and in the reflecting mirror behind the central pavilion.
