In 2001, Kunqu was listed as one of the first "Masterpieces of Human Oral and Intangible Cultural Heritage" by UNESCO and became a world cultural heritage. Kunqu is the oldest opera in China and is known as the ancestor of Bai Opera. Kunqu began in the late Yuan and early Ming dynasties, and its origin was Qiandeng Town in Kunshan, Jiangsu. In the Jiangnan area where the ancient towns of the water town are located, the reputation of Qiandeng is not too big. This ancient town has a long history of 2,500 years and is located 15 kilometers south of Kunshan City, bordering Shanghai's Qingpu District. After crossing a river, it is the scenic spot of Qiandeng Ancient Town. This scenic spot is free and open, and you can enter and exit at will, but there are several small attractions in the scenic spot that you need to purchase tickets, or you can buy a joint ticket at the entrance of the scenic spot. The ancient town is a quaint stone street, the old house remains intact, such as back to the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Yu's pawn is an old house built in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. The entire building has a Ming Dynasty hall, five small halls, six buildings, and double-prepared buildings. "Flat", more than 120 large and small houses, thousands of people called it "family". The pavement's yard is clean and comfortable, like a private garden, which is a far cry from the hustle and bustle of the stone street. The Yanfu Temple, adjacent to the pawnshop, is a thousand-year-old temple. Liang Tianjian two years (503 years) was donated by the Qiandeng Township Wang Shushe.
