Vietnam's New Year is celebrated according to the Lunar calendar. It is
officially known as Tet Nguyen Dan, or Tet. The Lunar New Year begins between
January twenty-first and February the nineteen. The exact date changes from year
to year. Vietnamese people usually make preparations for the holiday several
weeks beforehand. They tidy their houses, cook special food, clean and make
offerings on the family altars. On the New Year's Eve, people sit up to midnight as
they want to see New Year in. Then, they put on new clothes and give one another
the greetings of the season. Tet lasts ten days. The first three days are the most
important. Vietnamese people believe that how people act during those days will
influence the whole year. They make every effort to avoid arguments and smile as
much as possible.
