Don't leave Hanoi without seeing a Thang Long Water Puppet Theater show. These musical stories portrayed are of historical legends and folk tales. These ever-popular performances are given by a troupe of talented actors and accompanied by a traditional Vietnamese pit orchestra.
Great entertainment for all ages. Charming, curious, and enchanting - you'll be pleased you experienced it.
Located next to Lake Ho Hoan Kiem in the Old Quarter, Thang Long Water Puppet Theater offers several shows each day that you can combine with a visit to the Old Quarter. This is very popular and always busy, so make sure to book in advance. Seats and leg-room are designed for smaller frames; 'first class' seats are cheap and strongly recommended.
