About this place

Splendid China and China Folk Culture Village are two theme parks combined into one. They attempt to do for China what Window on the World does for the rest of the planet. Splendid China represents China’s architectural wonders. In China Folk Culture Village, happy, shiny Chinese ethnic minorities give demonstrations of their craftwork and dance performances to gaping tourists. The park’s replicas of famous places follow a “most” theme. For example, Zhaozhou Bridge is represented as the “most ancient stone arch bridge” A replica of the park itself, under the title “most overrated tourist attraction”, wouldn’t go amiss.
 

Exit D, at Hua Qiao Cheng metro station, on Line 1, is at the entrance of this theme park. Bus nos. 113, 222, and 223 stop here.
 
A monorail, called the Happy Line, takes tourists from Splendid China and China Folk Culture Village to the other theme parks in this area. A day pass for the Happy Line costs RMB40.
