If one asks me which is the most meaningful Vietnam festival, without a doubt, the Tet holiday is my definite answer. The full name for the festival in Vietnamese is “Tet Nguyen Dan”. It is the Lunar New Year holiday, which takes place on the first day of the first month of the lunar calendar. This is the most important time of the year for the locals.

After that, all businesses and schools will have about 10 days off so the country, witnesses a massive flow of people leaving big cities to go back to their hometowns to celebrate Tet with their family.
At the stroke of midnight of the important day, some families would make beautifully decorated altars to express their wish for a lucky new year to the gods who guard the land, while other gathers at city central to watch the sparkling fireworks. In the next days, the Vietnamese would go to pagodas to pray, travel to beautiful sites, and visit their relatives and friends.
