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.

Booking was a breeze. Arrived at the entrance and redeemed the ticket quite easily. Great view of Saigon, however the deck is quite boring so your choice.

If you come to Vietnam or Ho Chi Minh City, you must visit the Reunification Palace.
The Reunification Palace is equivalent to the Presidential Palace of the Republic of China in Nanjing, China. The Reunification Palace is a single building that looks clean and bright, and a bit like a library. There is a large lawn in front of the palace, surrounded by lush trees, and there are tanks donated by China on the right, which leave a deep impression on people.

When you arrive at the Reunification Palace, you can fully understand the president&#39;s office and deeds during his lifetime. There are the president&#39;s living room, office, reception room, underground shelter, cinema, and leisure and entertainment places such as playing mahjong and playing piano, as well as the president&#39;s first and second wives&#39; rooms, which are decorated differently. Friends who are interested, please visit on your own.

2024 is the 70th anniversary of Vietnam&#39;s independence, a big day of commemorative significance,

Tickets changed on site, very fast. There are singing, there are puppets dancing, and it is lively. It seems that the location near the Unification Palace is very good to find us and we will be there. The theater is not big. It is very clear to sit before and after sitting. The children are very happy to watch it in about an hour.

Quite amazing and cultural. Didn&#39;t realize how time went by. Very colourful and a bit funny. The dolls danced on water and conveyed Very good messages and gave a reflection of ancient Vietnam and it&#39;s stories. A bit costly but definitely worth a try
