Spring Festival, known as Tet in Vietnam, is a momentous occasion in both China and Vietnam, highlighting the deep-rooted cultural ties between the two nations.
The festivities and traditions in the two countries share many similarities, such as pre-festival cleaning to ward off bad luck, hanging red lanterns and couplets for good fortune, and most importantly, family gatherings for a grand reunion dinner.
These shared practices not only serve to strengthen family bonds but are also a wonderful reminder of the cultural affinities that unite China and Vietnam.
