Lunar New Year is the most important festival in Vietnam. It's celebrated according to the Lunar
calendar. It is officially known as Tet Nguyen Dan or Tet. It begins between January twenty-first and
February nineteenth. The exact date changes from year to year. Vietnamese people usually make
preparations for the holiday several weeks before. They tidy their houses, cook special food, paint the
wall, clean and make offerings on the family altars. On the New Year's Eve, people stay up late to
midnight to say goodbye to “The Old Year” and welcome “The New Year” in. On the first day of Tet
people usually put on their new clothes and give one another the best wishes. Tet often lasts three days
but some people stay with their family longer. The first three days are the most important. Vietnamese

 Hung King Temple Festival is annually held in Phu Tho province from the 8 th to 11th of the third lunar
month. It commemorates and worships the Hung Kings who are the founders and also the first emperors of

the nation. It's impressive because there is a procession from the foot of Nghia Linh mountain to the High
Temple on top of the mountain. While you are there, you can attend a ceremony of offering incense and
specialties to the Hung Kings. Moreover, there are also some great activities such as bamboo swings, lion
dances, wrestling and Xoan singing performances. The festival, together with many other festivals, was
