Water Puppets

A traditional art form in Vietnam is Water Puppetry, so we went to see a show in Hanoi, near where water puppets originated. This tradition stems from performers in rice fields, performing for their small village. The show we saw depicted typical scenes of folklore and history of Vietnamese culture.
