Concierge.com's insider take:
Peking opera is performed nightly at this intimate (300-seat) 19th-century guild hall; you can enjoy the high notes and crashing gongs while sipping tea and nibbling on sunflower seeds. Before the show, take a turn around the tiny museum; it has scripts, vintage photos, and other mementos of renowned 1920s opera star Mei Lanfang, who often performed here.
