RE: Strange Winter of Central Vietnam. A Walk in Hue Old Town and An Cuu River Neighborhood

Different here: Vietnamese have Tet, the Lunar Happy New Year (also known as Chinese), on January 29 in 2025. This is the main celebration of the year in Vietnam but not in Thailand. So, for example, in the main hypermarket of Hue City, they removed all Christmas goods after December 25 and you can only see Tet stuff there - nothing about Christmas/Happy New Year. There are Christmas trees here and there in the city but a significant part of people's thoughts are about Tet already. (But, of course, there will be parties on January 1 either).
