Tips for Tet holiday in Hanoi
Visitors coming to Hanoi during Tet holiday are fortunate because there will be numerous festivals as well as special dishes exclusively available in Tet to explore.
It is advisable to arrive in Hanoi approximately a week before Tet to enjoy the bustling atmosphere here, when people rush to prepare for Tet and witness the beauty of thousands of species of flowers and trees in the city's flower markets.
From the 5th day of the first month of the lunar calendar, a wide range of folk festivals will be held in Hanoi and its outskirt area including Dong Da festival, Lieu Doi wrestling festival, Giong Temple festival and Co Loa Temple festival.
Hanoi’s streets are expected to be deserted from evening of the last day of the Year of the Pig to the third day of the Year of the Mouse (2020) which would be the best chance for contemplative travelers to enjoy its silent beauty with a camera. However, the downside of it is that there will hardly be any store or restaurant open during these days.
