I Vietnam firas inte jul - men vad gör man istället? När månen har snurrat tolv varv runt jorden, någon gång mellan 21 januari och 20 februari, inträffar det vietnamesiska nyåret, Tet. Då träffas släkt och vänner. Barnen får lyckopengar i röda kuvert. Det är färgglada parader, fyrverkerier och överdådiga festmåltider. Ingen julgran, men en Tet-blomma, eller snarare ett litet träd, med rosa persikoblommor i norra Vietnam och gula aprikosblommor i södra, är ett måste och det tydligaste vårtecknet. Alla klär sig fint — kvinnor och barn i den traditionella långklänningen áo dài. Häng med och fira Tet i Vietnam!
