What is Understanding Vietnamese Tết Traditions about?
Vietnamese New Year, called Tết, is the most important holiday in Vietnam, marking the arrival of spring based on the lunar calendar. It takes place from the first to the third day of the first lunar month (late January to early February). Traditions include cleaning homes, visiting family, giving money in red envelopes, making offerings at family altars, and feasting on foods like bánh chưng, bánh dầy, and thịt kho nước dừa. The celebrations can last a week and involve loud noises to ward off evil spirits.
