Step into a Dunhuang-themed space
at North Bund Raffles City
The venue is on the 3rd floor of North Bund Raffles City. The Flying Apsaras Corridor is lined with 22 statues of celestial maidens in flowing robes, set against Mogao Cave murals, desert Yardang landforms and Tang Dynasty palace lanterns. At the center is a 14-meter-high, 360-degree circular cave theater, where shifting lights evoke vast deserts and ancient grottoes.
Dress up in Dunhuang and Tang Dynasty costumes

If you choose an option with costume and makeup, you can pick from hundreds of Dunhuang and Tang Dynasty-style costumes. Professional makeup artists add forehead ornaments and hairpieces to transform you into a figure from the murals.
Watch the flying apsaras take to the air

When the music begins, flying apsaras descend from the ceiling on wires as silk ribbons swirl in the light. Powerful Vajra dances, breathtaking acrobatics and live Silk Road travel stories follow, with performers interacting with guests throughout.
Savor a Silk Road-inspired banquet

In a "one dish, one show" format, each course is woven into a Silk Road legend. Enjoy artistic dishes inspired by Dunhuang such as "Frozen Sand & Moon Plate" and "Cave Emerald & Flying Apsaras", along with dishes like "Beacon Fire Roast" and "Dunhuang Pearls" that combine ingredients from the Western Regions with Eastern cooking techniques.
※ The show and dinner last about 100 minutes; including dressing up and photos, the full experience takes about 3 hours.
