Great experience for a first timer. Shorter lines when buying a ticket.
It was my first time to watch water puppet show. The entrance music is phenomenal. The performances are exceptional. And a touch of comedy. Although it would have been better if the actors speaks English rather than local Language if possible in the future. However not a problem theres a paragraph showing on the screen where you can read it to understand.

Great show. Sit in front row or near the back.
Amazing show with stunning puppet performances, singing and music.
Seats aren't stepped enough near the front, so all I could see was the back of some guys head.
