Suzhou Street (Beijing)

China / Beijing / Peking / Beijing
 replica, draw only border

A replica of a street and canal in Suzhou with houses, food shops, resturants, Book Shops and antique emporiums along a canel. When the Imperial Court was in resident this would be with costumed townsfolk, musicans, animals, boats etc.
This was only partly intended as a 'disneyland' type amusement but also gave the imperial family some idea of the everyday life that they would otherwise have no experience of.
