The 1930 Nanking Theatre, a neoclassical hall that in 2003 was jacked up 3.38 m and rolled 66.46 m south-east to clear the way for the Yan'an Road works — the whole building, finished on 17 June 2003, then the largest relocation in the city's history. Three cheap ways in: 'Music Afternoon Tea' lunchtime concerts on weekdays at ¥30 (usually South Hall, Gate 1; one ticket per ID card, sold in batches on the hall's mini-program), ¥30 self-guided visits, and 'Explore the Palace' guided tours — all booked through the mini-program.
