Experience the Origin of Vietnam’s Water Puppet Theater in Hanoi!
Renowned across Vietnam, the water puppet show in Hanoi is the birthplace of this unique traditional art. This exotic performance is a cultural experience you shouldn’t miss.
The show is non-verbal, so you can fully enjoy it without worrying about the language.
Dating back to the 10th century, water puppetry was originally performed during rituals and harvest festivals. The entire stage is set on water, where skilled puppeteers stand waist-deep to maneuver the puppets. The narration and music are all performed live, adding to the immersive atmosphere.
Each story is short and easy to follow, making the show popular with tourists. Even without understanding the language, you’ll find it entertaining—why not join a tour and see it for yourself?
You also enjoy a Vietnamese dinner after puppet show.
