Skip the lines to the Thang Long Water Puppet Theatre and experience one of Vietnam's most distinctive art forms live on stage. See a unique art form that originates over 1,000 years ago in the Red River Delta. In the past, water puppetry showed the daily life of villagers such as farming, fishing and romance. Now, watch plays about ancient Vietnamese legends, myths and history. The world-famous Thang Long Water Puppet Theatre in Hanoi has its roots in an art form that dates back to the 11th century. The tradition of water puppet theater stems from a time when rice paddy fields were flooded and villagers would create entertainment by standing in the waist-deep water with the puppets performing over the water. Using large rods to support the puppets it appeared as if they were moving across the water with the puppeteers hidden behind a screen.

About Hanoi

Hanoi, Vietnams Hauptstadt, vereint Seetempel, französische Kolonialboulevards und eine Altstadt, in der Streetfood und Roller jede Gasse füllen.

Die engen Gassen der Altstadt, von denen sich einst jede einem einzigen Gewerbe widmete, liegen gleich nördlich des Hoan-Kiem-Sees, wo die rote Huc-Brücke zum Tempel des Jadeberges führt. Man bummelt im Morgengrauen, um Tai-Chi am Wasser zu sehen, oder nach Einbruch der Dunkelheit, wenn sich die Bürgersteige mit Essensständen und niedrigen Plastikhockern füllen.

Top-ranked sights in Hanoi: Ha Long Bay, Hanoi Old Quarter, Long Bien Bridge (Cau Long Bien).
