Must visit in Ho Chi Minh: Golden Dragon Water Puppet Theater District

How can you miss the traditional Vietnamese opera performance: Water Puppet Show when you visit Vietnam! In Hanoi, you can choose the Thang Long Water Puppet Theater in Hanoi, and in Ho Chi Minh, it is the Golden Dragon Water Puppet Theater in Ho Chi Minh. In the water puppet show, the artist hides behind the chain in the water and manipulates the puppet, accompanied by live singing and playing on the left and right. Although it is incomprehensible, it is impressive haha🤣 🎫Tickets are 300,000 Vietnamese dong, which is less than 90 RMB. When we went there, there was only one show at 6:30pm, it is recommended to check the performance time in advance and buy tickets at the theater ticket office on site. You can buy tickets one day or half a day in advance, the seats are basically full, buying in advance can ensure that you can buy and sit in a relatively forward position 🎦The theater location is not far from all major attractions, very convenient~ ⌚The performance lasts 50 minutes, including seventeen short plays. The performers manipulate the puppets in the water and perform with traditional musical instruments and singing. Although the language is incomprehensible, it does not affect understanding. They are all simple and vivid scenes of folk life or mythological stories~ Address: 55B Nguyen Thi Minh Khai District 1, HoChi Minh City 700000, Vietnam
