At first we thought it would be too touristic and we almost didn’t go! Thank goodness we did, because we had such a delightful evening. The live music was such a cultural enrichment and watching the puppets on the water was such a lovely experience.

Water puppetry is a traditional art form that originated in North Vietnam. The villagers would entertain each other, while standing in the water, bringing to life legends and old tales…Although Thang Long Water Puppet Theater in Hanoi is probably the most famous one, you can visit water puppet theaters all over Vietnam. Here are a few options.

Every day Tomi and Mimi look outside from their balcony to see the tuktuks, the cycle rickshaws, the dogs and the people in their colorful clothes. In the morning a pushcart with vegetables stops in front of the house. As well as a fruit cart.

Today they were looking out over the street of their house and they got a lovely surprise. Who do you think came at the door? Who was walking down the street? It was a cow! Yes indeed, and not just one, all day long cows walked on and off trying to get a bite to eat.

In the evening families or neighbors start a bonfire. Tomi and Mimi have a big bonfire in front of their house. There is music playing and people are going around the fire to throw corn kernels and popcorn in the fire. People are dancing to the rhythmic music of the drummers. They are eating Indian Naan bread baked in a fire oven outside. Everyone is having a great time.

Tomi and Mimi sure love a good adventure. This story is about their adventure on an old Dutch trading ship. Look at the masts! Look at the cannons! Come along and find out what it is all about.

Also known as the City of Lanterns, this historical trading post is filled with old buildings, teahouses, restaurants, shops, museums, and … lanterns. There are lanterns to make, lanterns to buy and lanterns to lit. Tomi and Mimi went on a little boat ride and placed a lit candle in the water. It was a lovely sight and all the little lanterns together were making a colorful feast on the river.

Tomi and Mimi were surprised to see how many wonderful historical buildings were scattered all over Lodhi Park. These are actually archeological sites dating back all the way to the 1400s… Mimi is looking at the birds she hopes to spot. There are over 50 different kinds of species butterflies and birds in the park.
