Additional Visitor FAQs

Is the lion dance performance loud?+

Yes, the lion dance performance is accompanied by drums, cymbals, and a gong. Guests with noise sensitivity may want to bring headphones or other ear protection.

Is Lan Su ADA accessible?+

Yes. Lan Su has a wheelchair accessible route that travels throughout the garden. Almost every area of the garden can be accessed by those using mobility aids, and benches are available throughout the garden. Restrooms are also fully accessible. A Universal Access Map is available at the Ticket Booth and Host Stand.

Lan Su honors complimentary entry for one caregiver of each visitor with a mobility issue necessitating an extra helping hand.

Note: The second floor of Yun Shui Teahouse is not wheelchair-friendly at this time as stairs are required for access. The first floor is still ADA accessible.

Where to watch: For a lion dance performance, your best spots are likely the Waterside Pavilion (aka Flowers Bathing in Spring Rain) or The Boathouse (aka Painted Boat in Misty Rain). We suggest avoiding bridges, as it may be difficult for the lions to get by (e.g. Double Rainbow Bridge; Zig Zag Bridge / Moon Locking Pavilion).

Can I bring a stroller?+

Yes, strollers are permitted in Lan Su Chinese Garden. For a lion dance performance, your best spots are likely the Waterside Pavilion (aka Flowers Bathing in Spring Rain) or The Boathouse (aka Painted Boat in Misty Rain).

Meet Portland Chinese Dance Troupe

The Portland Chinese Dance Troupe was founded in 2003 as a recreational dance group. All ladies in the group grew up in China; their childhood memories of beautiful Chinese folk dance and music follow them wherever they go. Most members in the troupe are working moms with busy daily schedules, but in the past thirteen years, led by the Artistic Director Julie Ding, they gather at the dance studio every Friday, practicing, exercising, laughing, sharing, getting relaxed after a week of hectic life, and most importantly, fulfilling their dreams! PCDT does not only make great efforts on each piece of their dance—they also make efforts on encouraging and getting the younger generation involved, nurturing them with Chinese culture through dancing.

Portland Chinese Dance Troupe has performed at many local cultural venues. Every year, it joins the local Chinese communities to celebrate Chinese New Year and other major festivals. Although eighteen years have passed, PDCT is getting younger and more lively day by day with their deep love to dance and their devotion to build the bridge across generations, between the old and the young, and across cultures between the east and the west!
