The HMong Celebrate Tet Doc Lap

The H’Mong Celebrate Tet Doc Lap

Dating back to September 2, 1945, when President Ho Chi Minh proclaimed the Declaration of Independence and founded the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, the H’Mong community in Tay Bac (Vietnam’s northwest) celebrates Tet Doc Lap (Independence Festival) as a deeply meaningful tradition. The festival embodies gratitude to the Party and the State, while also serving as a time for family reunions, cultural exchange, and the preservation of age-old traditions.
