The Vietnamese New Year 2012 |
|
The Vietnamese New Year (Têt) also marks the beginning of spring. Each house must have a vase of "hoa mai", peach blossoms in the South or "hoa dao", Plum blossoms in the North, with the hope that the bloom happens the first day of the year. One cannot forget a plate of fruits, offerings on the altar of ancestors. It's time for a return to traditions where girls take the ao dai dress for a stroll in the flower festival for a photo session with friends and family.
