To welcome the Lunar New Year (Tet) 2025, the Happy Land Moc Chau tourist area, located in Lun hamlet, Muong Sang commune, Moc Chau district, has launched the "Old Tet Village" space, attracting a large number of visitors to explore, experience, and capture beautiful moments.

Taking visitors around the space, Nguyen Manh Hung, Director of Happy Land Moc Chau, said, “For generations, the Lunar New Year has been an important festival in the cultural history of the Vietnamese people, symbolizing the sacred moment that connects the old year with the new. With the desire to preserve traditional cultural values and create an interesting place for visitors to learn more about the unique customs and practices related to Tet, we have recreated the 'Old Tet Village' space."
