World Heritage Institute of Training and Research for the Asia and the Pacific Region under the auspices of UNESCO announced the 2023 edition of Global Awards for World Heritage Education Innovative Cases recently. A Graceful Night Tour in the Humble Administrator's Garden and Suzhou Museum, a night tour program launched by Suzhou, was recognized as the Star of Outstanding.
The night tour program of the Humble Administrator's Garden is a cultural and tourism innovative product based on World Heritage Site, and the country's first and only protection and utilization project on World Heritage Site that has been fully assessed by China World Cultural Heritage Monitoring Center. With new media and techniques introduced, the night tour program has extended to Suzhou Museum adjacent to the garden, and thus combined the beauty of classical gardens and modern architecture.
In the meantime, the program has created a new model to utilize World Cultural Heritage by strictly following the principle of developing cultural heritage in a limited and sustainable way, avoiding intervention in the protection of relics, and conserving the habitat of animals. All the equipment used in the program can be disassembled and recycled, which has zero impact on the structures and relics.
The long-expected night tour program of the Humble Administrator's Garden and Suzhou Museum will return on the Mid-Autumn Festival. You can bring the passport and buy the same-day ticket at the ticket office拙政园自助预约. Remember to get there early since the tickets are limited every day.
