Traditional water puppetry originating from the rice paddies of the Red River Delta in northern Vietnam remains one of the most popular tourist attractions in Ho Chi Minh City. If you want to truly immerse yourself in the local culture of Vietnam’s largest city, catch a show at the Golden Dragon Water Puppet Theatre! The theatre is located in Tao Dan Park and performs nightly. The shows are performed entirely in Vietnamese, but the puppetry and accompanying music appeal to foreign audiences as well. An orchestra, usually located to one side of the stage, uses drums, wooden bells, trumpets, bamboo flutes and cymbals to add sound effects and play traditional music, while dragons, fairies and other decorative figures dance on water platforms. Most shows feature humorous depictions of Vietnamese folk tales, legends and important seasonal events, such as the rice harvest.
