Celebrate Tet with Traditional Vietnamese Customs

Tet, the Vietnamese Lunar New Year, is a time for family reunions, honoring ancestors, and celebrating new beginnings. During this time, Halong Bay becomes a blend of culture and natural beauty. Many cruises offer themed events to introduce visitors to Tet traditions such as cooking classes featuring traditional dishes like bánh chưng (square sticky rice cake), live music, lion dances, and fireworks displays. These festive activities provide an excellent opportunity to learn about Vietnam’s rich cultural heritage.
