Lunar New Year Festival - the occasion that marks the beginning of a new
year in lunar calendar, is also called "Tet" or "Tet Nguyen Dan" in
Vietnamese. This is the most important festival in Vietnam which usually
takes place annually around late January or early February.
Lunar New Year Festival in Vietnam has many similar features with Lunar New Year Festival in other Oriental countries in the regions, especially with Chinese one. However, Vietnamese Lunar New Year Festival and Chinese one may not happen at the same time as difference in lunar calendars of two countries.
Preparation
For about one or even two weeks before, Vietnamese people has prepared for the New Year because they think that by the time a new year comes, everything must be new to welcome luck and get rid of bad thing. They spend time to clean their house, particularly ancestral altar, and decorate the house with new things which are usually in red (the color symbolizing the luck). Housewives are always busy with preparing food for “Tet” holiday and buying accessories for traditional rites. All members of family also get new clothes and of course, kids are always excited most by their new clothes. Particularly, all debts must be paid back because paying debt in the New Year will bring bad fortune in all around the year.
