Tet in Vietnam

In Vietnam Christmas, New Year's and easter are all wrapped up in one big cel-ebration called Tet Nguyen Dan, or Tet , for short.This biggest and the best celebration takes place in late Jan or early Feb at the beginning of the Vietnamese new year. Weeks before, Vietnamese cook, clean and get ready for Tet. We make banh Tet, special rice cake which is filled with green beans and pork.

On New year's day, everybody gose to pagoda, visit friends. The children are given red envelopes of li xi (lucky money)

But there are good luck sign too, we have some word say "happiness" or "long life" or "good luck"
