Yen Tu in the spring brings many surprises to visitors. The vibrancy of the festival season and countless traditional folk experiences make this historical land even more lively.

Here are 5 reasons why you must visit Yen Tu in Spring 2025:

1. Visit the sacred place to seek blessings for the new year
Known as the Buddhist capital of Dai Viet, the sacred Yen Tu Mountain always welcomes the people of Vietnam to return and embark on a journey to pray for peace and good fortune. Pilgrims traveling to the land of Buddha will be greeted by the incredible energy of the spring mountain, with “blessings of peace of mind” for a new year filled with smoothness, peace, and happiness.

2. Celebrate “Our Tet” at the Village
Life has changed a lot, and each person or family celebrates Tet in their own way. However, the traditional values passed down by our ancestors remain a spiritual anchor that Vietnamese people cherish. At the foot of Yen Tu Mountain, the fragrance and beauty of traditional Tet are preserved and expressed in a rich way, contributing to the preservation of Vietnam’s heritage. Come to Yen Tu Village and explore the lively “Tết ta” atmosphere at the Yen Tu Village festival, with a series of activities such as wrapping chung cake, making clay firecrackers, crafting incense, printing Đông Hồ paintings, playing tug-of-war, pushing poles, and more.

3. Experience a journey back to the Tran Dynasty

The combination of a space rich in nostalgic cultural elements with a series of interesting traditional activities allows visitors to immerse themselves in ancient life. What would it be like to “time travel to the Tran Dynasty,” wearing traditional Vietnamese attire, riding a horse, and enjoying the ancient, nostalgic atmosphere? Or perhaps start the new year by writing your own calligraphy? You can also join in various folk games that seem to have been forgotten over time, such as tug-of-war, playing Chinese chess, the game of “ô ăn quan”, and making clay firecrackers.

4. Enjoy traditional cuisine
Adding flavor to the spring travel journey in Yen Tu, the chain of traditional restaurants enhances the festive taste of Tet. After indulging in various delicacies throughout the year, Tet time brings a special fondness for the simple, homegrown dishes. The Tet meal in Yen Tu is not extravagantly presented, but each dish holds the heartfelt emotions of the chef. Whether it’s a royal dish or a traditional Vietnamese village meal, each is the result of a cooking process filled with emotion, using home-grown ingredients. At Yen Tu Village, the experience of ancient Vietnam is made even more complete with each meal. It evokes memories of “home-cooked meals,” the atmosphere of old restaurants, and the warmth of the service people. Furthermore, the “homegrown, garden-fresh” ingredients from the Yen Tu Organic Farm add a clean and healthy flavor to the cuisine of Yen Tu Village.
