After a 4-hr. bus ride, we arrived at Wuxi, a town which used to produce a lot of tin. Now that the tin has run out, they renamed this town Wuxi (without-tin, 無錫). The people now earn tourist dollars from Movie World, which was a very innovative creation of the mayor. Most of China's great historical movies were made here in Wuxi, (Hollywood of China).
Nothing here on the movie set is real; but they looked very impressive. The income from the tourists visiting this set has been pouring in ever since China released the movie, Hero starring Jet Li who became world famous. It was actually produced from another movie set in Beijing!
