💡 Walk the lake at 6am to see locals doing tai chi and badminton. Sunset is crowded with photographers but worth it for the light on Turtle Tower.
💡 Book the 5:15pm show to avoid tourist crowds. Sit in row C or D – row A gets wet from splashes. Arrive 20 minutes early to see the puppets being prepared backstage (ask nicely).

💡 The outdoor section is the highlight – allow 2 hours. Go on a Saturday when ethnic minority guides sometimes give free tours. Taxi from the centre costs 50,000 VND.
