All the special holidays in my country, I like Tet most. At Tet, people usually buy peach blossom and flower. I always plant flowers infront of my house. I visit my grandparents to say happy new year. They feel very happy.My parents like to watch firework in the park because it is very beautiful. I like getting lucky money from my parents and relative. I love Tet.

Vietnam is a beautiful country with a wide range of 
traditional festivals and ones that I like most is Huong Pagoda Festival. It's a long history and famous festival in the Northern part of Vietnam which is held on the spring from January to March Lunar. There's a various of Buddhists take part in the festival to pray the best to their family and friends in the new year. In the temple there are incense offering, including incense stick, flowers, lamps, candles, fruits and vegetarian food. At the time of worshiping, there were two monks and nuns wearing robes, bringing vegetarian offerings, and then proceeding to use the offerings on the altar. While saying Buddhist chants, the two monks and nuns were dancing very flexible and beautiful. From the opening of the festival to the end of the festival, only occasionally there are monks at the above pagodas knocking and praying for about half an hour at temples, shrines and temples. And the smoke never breaks. However, there're some drawbacks of this statement especially about the environment.  In conclusion, I still like this festival because it's a great condition for people to relax their minds after a hard year and it's time for us to pray the best things to our family and friends.
