ANTD.VN - Choosing to visit Da Nang, Phu Quoc, Sa Pa, foreign visitors seem to have "hit the secret" when enjoying the breathtaking scenery and unique entertainment activities and services organized during the traditional Vietnamese New Year.

Da Nang: Lost in Ba Na Hills of thousands of flowers, welcome spring with "strong Vietnamese flavor" in Da Nang Downtown

Nearly 400,000 tulips of 45 colorful varieties spread throughout the tourist area, adding to the dreamy beauty of Ba Na, like being lost in a fairyland. The Spring Flower Festival at Sun World Ba Na Hills tourist area this year still maintains its form with impressive investment.

Every corner of Ba Na is decorated brilliantly, blending with the magical scenery like a fairy tale world, making international tourists extremely amazed. Not only tulips, the flower festival on Ba Na peak also lasts with the Sun Flower Festival in March-April, the Rose Festival in May with the gathering of hundreds of thousands of sunflowers and roses, covering a colorful flower paradise on Ba Na peak.

“Best wishes for the New Year to my relatives, family and my hometown. It is so exciting to do it in such a beautiful place,” said Veronika (Slovakia) when she was able to join the local customs during Tet in Da Nang.

On this occasion, Ba Na has vividly recreated the traditional Vietnamese Tet cultural space at Tru Vu Tea House area. Domestic and international tourists coming to Ba Na in the early days of spring will experience the traditional Vietnamese Tet space with familiar images close to the Vietnamese people such as Tet trays, Chung cakes, Tet cakes, red parallel sentences, peach blossoms... or familiar Tet specialties of Vietnamese people.

In the first days of the year of the Snake 2025, Da Nang's "entertainment mecca" - Da Nang Downtown has attracted thousands of tourists to visit and enjoy unique spring experiences. As an annual tradition, Da Nang Downtown "treats" to the Mai Hoa Thung lion and dragon dance performance.

Other activities that attract international visitors include the Vui Phet Tet market with more than 50 food stalls, handicrafts, and folk games. Every corner of Da Nang Downtown is a colorful Tet picture. The Japanese gravel road is covered with red flags with yellow stars, the Koi fish pond area is completely renovated with delicate Japanese miniatures and check-in photobooths at the Highwayboat game, all of which bring a virtual living space with "millions of likes" for visitors.

Sapa: Foreign tourists also invite each other to "go to the top" to pray for peace

Many international visitors to Sa Pa during Tet were lucky enough to travel among the flowers, admire the majestic Fansipan, and experience the Northwest flavor. Visitors who arrived in Sa Pa on the third day of Tet were able to immerse themselves in the solemn and sacred atmosphere of the Spring Festival opening the gates of heaven.

On the third day of Tet, Ban May at the foot of Fansipan Mountain also held a bustling highland market with the participation of 100 Northwest artisans. The stalls sold many local products, organized folk games such as blindfolded goat catching, climbing a greasy pole, pushing sticks, jumping over bamboo poles...

For the first time, international visitors were able to visit the Great Amitabha Buddha Statue and the sacred pagoda complex located at an altitude of 2,900 m to 3,143 m. They were also eager to receive peace cards and cast their fortunes at the beginning of the year to receive lucky gifts.

Phu Quoc: Party all night with fireworks and art shows

Among the destinations for Vietnamese New Year, Phu Quoc is the most popular with international visitors and the pearl island is also the most “customer-friendly” with a record of 3 fireworks displays on New Year’s Eve. On the remaining days, there are 2 fireworks displays each night from international-class shows.

High-altitude fireworks combined with multimedia performances at the Kiss Of The Sea show attract thousands of Western visitors every night. “I love the traditional Vietnamese New Year but also love the vibrant atmosphere and modern art shows. The town of Hoang Hon almost satisfies everything we expect in Vietnam. Beautiful beaches, warm sunshine, a market rich in local culture and world-class performances,” said Mikhail, a Ukrainian tourist.

Symphony of the sea brings an eye-catching performance with water cannons for the first time in a show in Vietnam. Sun Bavaria GastroPub is the most favorite place for foreign visitors to watch this show. Visitors from the beach, the streets, and Vui Phet night market join in the joy and happiness to welcome the new year.

Besides hours of enjoying the blue sea, white sand, golden sunshine and classy shows, Sunset Town also brings a bustling atmosphere throughout Tet to anyone who comes here on New Year's Day.

Every day, Phu Quoc airport serves 130-134 flights arriving and departing with about 22,000 passengers, an increase of 90% compared to the same period in 2024. However, the growth in the number of flights also leads to overload and congestion for many hours, especially at the immigration area, causing frustration for many international visitors. This shows the urgent need to upgrade and expand Phu Quoc international airport.
