This was highly recommended to us by the tour guide and our group decided the day before to get tickets. We got tickets for around 160RMB, I believe and, seats were in row 10, #1 and #3, right in the middle. This show is better than the usual performance of acrobatic and dances. All performers were trained professionally. With tickets... More

I enjoy modern dance and loved this show. It is professional and polished despite the youth of many of the performers. Their energy and enthusiasm was delightful. I don't know how they figure the seating but we bought cheap seats and were in the 4th row. The sound was so loud that despite being deaf, I had to stuff toilet... More

Although the show has no main story, the depictions of various ethnic minorities and their customs is shown with some of the best creative displays of drama and dancing. One can see this type of performance only in China due to its uniqueness.

This show was spectacular. I went in expecting it to be average save for the peacock dance but truthfully every one of the performances was world class and kept us entertained. We got 180y tickets and since we bought them a few hours before the performance began we were able to select good seats. As others have said, it's a... More

Just went to see the Dynamic Yunnan show a few nights ago. I deliberately spent 2 nights in Kunming after my journey to Lijiang in order to watch this show. What a fantastic show it was. The moon dance and the peacock dance were the best acts while the rest didn't disappoint either. I originally told my travel agent to... More

I love every bit of it. The show starts at 8pm everyday. We bought the cheapest ticket (RMB180 per person) and we enjoyed watching the whole show. Except for a group of tourist that spat on the floor and a guy just slept throughout the show. Oh yes, no video or photography are allowed but I can see a lot... More

Overall a fun show that does a good job showcasing some of the ethnic minorities. The staging and choreography is better than the dancing with a couple of notable exceptions such as the peacock dance and the eclipse. If you're looking for a cultural show to see in Kunming this will definitely fit the bill. You can buy tickets directly... More

Great show. Costumes & dancers were fab. The English signs ensured we had a brief understanding if the dances meanings Definitely worth the ticket price, a good night out.

The show is amazing! The music, drums, and dancing are all fantastic. As others have said the Peacock Dance is really worth the admission price. Must see!

Excellent show that I would recommend any traveler to Yunnan. The Moonlight and Peacock dances performed by the show's star are simply amazing. You absolutely MUST see this show!
