Tết Nguyên Đán ở Việt Nam còn được gọi là Tết Nguyên Đán:

Tet holiday is one of the most important public holidays in Vietnam in particular and in some Asian countries in general. It is the Vietnamese New Year marking the arrival of spring based on the Lunar calendar.

The dates of Lunar New Year differ every year but it is generally taken place around late January or February, local people will be off from work to celebrate the holiday for 7 or more than 7 days depending on each year if any dates fall into weekend. Because of the fact that Vietnamese families are so close-knitted, Tet Holiday is considered the best occasion for family members to return home and get together.

During Tet holiday, the cities become less busy as people return to their hometowns celebrate with friends and family and many businesses are closed during Tet.

Hung Kings’ temple Festival (Giỗ tổ Hùng Vương): is one of the most sacred holidays in Vietnam.

The Hung Kings’ Temple Festival is held between Match 8^th – 11^th (Lunar Calendar) in honor of Hung King, who was the founder of the Hong Bang Dynasty in 2879 BC. The festival is taken place in Phu Tho Province, which is about 85km to the northwest of Hanoi. The ceremony may last for several days, but the most important day is March 10^th (Lunar Calendar) and local people also have a day off  on March 10^th as an official public holiday. The ceremony is to remember and pay tribute to the Hung Kings who are the founders and first emperors of the nation.

Ngày Giải Phóng/ Thống Nhất (Ngày Thống Nhất Đất nước): it is also known as Day of Southern Liberation for National Reunification. It becomes a public holiday in Vietnam, local people all around the country celebrate the reunification of the country which dated back to 1975 when the North and the South reunified into one: one country, one politics. It is also an opportunity to honor and commemorate the heroes who have dedicated themselves to the country’s independence and freedom.

 Labor Day (Ngày Quốc Tế Lao Động)

Like the other countries around the world, Vietnam also celebrates Labor Day, which is right after Reunification Day (April 30). As a result, the two public holidays are combined into one and local people often enjoy 2-4 days off. On this occasion, offices, government institutions, banks, firms, schools etc are closed.

Quốc Khánh (Lễ Quốc Khánh): is a national holiday in Vietnam observed September 2^và commemorating President Ho Chi Minh reading the Declarations of independence of Vietnam at Ba Đình Square in Hanoi on 2 September 1945.  Local people enjoy 2 days off to celebrate Vietnam’s national day. There are speeches, parades, and other activities across the country, with a large march in Ba Dinh Square in Hanoi, where the Declaration of Independence was made. This is a very patriotic holiday with the national flag of Vietnam displayed everywhere and large posters of Ho Chi Minh (‘Uncle Ho’) adorning city walls.
