Tet, or Lunar New Year, is the most significant holiday in Vietnam, a time

rich with cultural traditions and familial bonds.

Celebrated at the turn of the lunar calendar, usually in late January or early

February, Tet marks the arrival of spring and a fresh start.

Preparations for Tet begin weeks in advance, with families cleaning their

homes to sweep away bad luck and decorate with peach blossoms in the north

and apricot blossoms in the south, symbolizing prosperity and growth.

The holiday is steeped in rituals; families honor their ancestors with offerings

and gather to cook special foods like Chung Cake, a square sticky rice cake

filled with mung beans and pork.

New Year's Eve is a time for family reunions, where people wear new

clothes, exchange gifts, and wish each other health and happiness for the year

ahead.

The first visitor to a home on New Year's Day is especially significant,

believed to bring good fortune for the year.

Streets and homes are adorned with red and gold decorations, colors

symbolizing luck and wealth.


Festivities extend beyond private gatherings to public celebrations with

dragon dances, fireworks, and traditional games.

Tet is not just a holiday but a heartfelt expression of Vietnamese values,

emphasizing the importance of family, respect for ancestors, and hope for

prosperity and health.

It's a time when the whole nation pauses to celebrate its heritage and look

forward to the future with renewed optimism.
