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.

If you have been on one of these before then you will know what to expect. They are great to get round the city, sight see and learn a little about history. The auto Que can be a little behind at times but it&rsquo;s not a problem. They have open top buses which we did find were quite busy at times and struggled for a seat but we ended up sitting downstairs with the aircon and the view was just as good. Tour guides on the buses are very helpful. We paid on trip and we found it is cheaper then at the desk.

The tower entrance is clearly marked and labeled as it has its own reception and elevator to the highest floor. The overall reception is very good and professional and gives you an elegant feel. If you enjoy over head views of city this sky deck gives a clear and perfect vantage point and 360 view of the city.

Tickets were exchanged on site, very fast. There were singing and puppet dancing, very lively. It seemed to be near the Reunification Palace. The location was easy to find and we walked there. The theater was not big, and the view from the front and back was very clear. The children had a lot of fun watching it for 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
