Golden Dragon Water Puppet Theater (Múa Rối Nước Rồng Vàng)
About
Golden Dragon Water Puppet Theater is an iconic performing arts venue preserving a millennium-old folk tradition born from Vietnam's wet-rice civilization. Behind bamboo blinds, master puppeteers skillfully maneuver hand-carved wooden puppets across a shimmering water stage, animating heroic national legends, traditional fables, and bucolic village rituals like buffalo herding and dragon boat racing, accompanied by live folk instruments and operatic vocalists.
