Thang Long Water Puppet Theater Hanoi

The Thang Long Water Puppet Theater in Hanoi is a charming theater known for putting on performances of ancient Vietnamese mythology, local folklore and stories from the country’s history. The shows generally take about an hour and its recommended that you try to get a seat in the first three rows, as some visitors say it can be a bit difficult to see the stage from the back, especially for children. It’s also a good idea to get some tickets well in advance, as the theater is quite popular for locals and visitors alike, and the shows tend to sell out pretty quickly.
