Itinerary
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.

About Hanoi
Hanoi, Vietnam's capital, mixes lakeside temples, French colonial boulevards and an Old Quarter where street food and scooters fill every lane.
The Old Quarter's narrow streets, each once devoted to a single trade, sit just north of Hoan Kiem Lake, where the red Huc Bridge leads to the Temple of the Jade Mountain. Wander at dawn to see tai chi by the water, or after dark when the pavements fill with food stalls and low plastic stools.
Top-ranked sights in Hanoi: Ha Long Bay, Hanoi Old Quarter, Long Bien Bridge (Cau Long Bien).
