The TET holiday or Lunar New Year
Tet is celebrated in Vietnam and China. The most obvious indication of Tet are the yellow flowers. Thousands of potted yellow mums and yellow flowering trees invade the scene of Vietnam. Most families purchase a pot for their home, but the interesting part is that they let them die afterwards, even though they are contained in pots. Arin likens it to our Christmas tree tradition. Also, specific foods are placed on an altar for good luck, then red envelopes of lucky money are distributed to family, etc.
