Vietnamese water puppets
Vietnam Water Puppet goes along with history of over 4000 years. The traditional form of art was created when local working on the rice field, first it entertained the farmers then it was performed on the stages for guests during the festival. This performance was conserved through generations until today. Unlike the shadow puppetry found in other Asian countries such as Cambodia, Myanmar, Thailand, the puppet shows held throughout Vietnam take place over a waist-deep pool of water. A water puppet show will not only demonstrate for the outstanding performance but also the unique, long-established culture, customs of the S-shaped country. Considered as one of the most indigenous cultural traits of Vietnam, it would be a big miss if travelers do not watch the Vietnamese traditional puppet show in their Vietnam trip.
