From impressive processions and luminous light displays and to vibrant street-art performances – these are the festivals you must attend in Vietnam.
The Mid-Autumn festival, or Tết Trung Thu, is marked with fanciful lanterns to help a legendary moon-bound figure back to Earth.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is a favorite with children, as the occasion calls for more toys, candies, fruit, and entertainment than any other time of the year. Mid-Autumn parties serve cakes like the banh deo and banh nuong, shaped like fish and the moon. Finally, lion dances are commonly performed by traveling troupers who go from house to house to perform for a fee.
The Mid-Autumn Festival takes place on the 15th day of the eighth month of the Chinese lunar calendar.
