Tinh Hoa Bac Bo stage was built on Sai Son land in Quoc Oai district, 23km west of Hanoi center. The play was inspired by the story of Zen master Tu Dao Hanh when he practiced at Thay pagoda - one of the oldest pagodas in Vietnam, while interweaving typical Northern cultural elements.
The stage is a 4,300m2 lake, leaning against Thay Pagoda mountain, so the audience has the opportunity to admire the performance against a majestic natural backdrop. Traditional folk elements are performed in a modern and creative style, giving the audience a special and memorable experience of the Red River Delta - the cultural center of Northern Vietnam.

The two groups of artists participating in Tinh Hoa Bac Bo include Sai Son locals and students from the Vietnam Dance College.
