Water puppets as souvenirs

Souvenir Water Puppets from Hanoi's Famous Water Puppet Theater on Sale in the Courtyard of the Temple of Literature.
The world-famous Thang Long Water Puppet Theatre in Hanoi has its roots in an art form that dates back to the 11th century. The tradition of water puppet theatre stems from a time when rice paddy fields were flooded and villagers would make entertainment by standing in the waist-deep water with the puppets performing over the water.

Using large rods to support the puppets it appeared as if they were moving across the water with the puppeteers hidden behind a screen.

    Im Wasserpuppentheater war ich ganz fasziniert, das war so schön. Leider habe ich keine  Fotos gemacht, ich war davon ausgegangen dass man nicht fotografieren dürfe. Man darf aber.
