VIETNAMESE WATER PUPPET SHOW & DINNER IN HO CHI MINH CITY

We will begin our evening with a wonderful dinner at a lovely local restaurant. After dinner, we will make our way to the theater to enjoy the Water Puppet Show. Puppets are made from light timbers, carved, polished and decorated with different colours to demonstrate the clear personalities of each character. Water puppetry is a unique Vietnamese art form performed in a large pool using the water as a stage. The artisans inside the cabin control puppets. They perform each pole, rope,… puppets with the system of ropes arranged outside or under the water. The stage is decorated with flags, fans, parasols. It is considered as one of the most traditional and important parts of Vietnamese culture. You will also enjoy the Vietnamese orchestra, which provides the background music for the show. The orchestra is manned by an array of talented singers accompanied by professional musicians performing with traditional musical instruments. The show is a great way to learn more about the Vietnamese rural life and folklore. The programs performed, especially those involving tales of day-to-day living, often have humorous plot twists for you to enjoy.

Vietnamese Water Puppet Show & Dinner Cruise (review from Viator)

My brother has been living in Ho Chi Minh for 3 months and I booked this while visiting him. He had walked past the puppet show and dinner cruise daily and said he never imagined how much he was missing out on. Huong was our guide and he went out of his way to make sure we were completely satisfied. He picked us from our airnbn and communicated with us with ample time. I would recommend this to anyone visiting because it made everything seem effortless.

VIETNAMESE WATER PUPPET SHOW & DINNER in HO CHI MINH CITY (Review from Viator)

I watched the show with the kids. They seem to love the puppets dancing in the water! The language of course is in Vietnamese, kids and the family just tried to figure out what is it about. The kids started to feel a bit sleepy though when the story started to slow down and the music sounds like a lullaby for them. hahaha The venue is nice, clean and cool. And, just a little FYI for tourists who are so used to swiping everything (like me!), the ticket office doesn't accept credit cards or USD. better prepare you VND ;)
