Impression West Lake - a unique metropolitan outdoor performance in a natural stage setting. Located at the scenic Yue Lake of the West Lake area in Hangzhou, and in harmony with its world famous landscape, Impression West Lake is the most beautiful metropolitan theater with natural mountains and water as its backdrop. Thanks to the magical colors from each of the four seasons in Jiangnan (south of the Yangtze River), every show offers a uniquely wonderful feeling.

Staged entirely upon the lake itself (a stage has been built 3 centimeters below the surface), Impression West Lake is a spectacle of light, music, dance and theatrics. The story is based on a Hangzhou legend. Using the lake and its surroundings as props, lights and hundreds of actors create a sensational performance. Similar performances are staged in Yangshuo and Lijiang.
