- Ethnic minorities in Bac Giang province have unique ways to celebrate the
traditional Lunar New Year (Tet) and the Spring. Now, although those customs
have changed, becoming simpler, but the traditional
beauty is still kept intact.
Authorities in My Duc District will suspend Huong (Perfume) Pagoda Festival, a large spring celebration, as the Covid pandemic grows increasingly complex.
Worshipping “Ong Cong, Ong Tao” (Land Genie and Kitchen Gods) is a long-standing custom of great significance as it symbolises the farewell to all bad things of the old year to help people relaxedly enter a new year of peace and happiness.
In recent years, numerous efforts have been made to integrate folklore culture into many aspects of contemporary life, including music and fashion, contributing to creating unique products which are rich in spiritual value.
A virtual programme was officially launched at the Thang Long Imperial Citadel on January 19, to reproduce the ancient Tet (Lunar New Year) royal rituals.
