Hello everyone,

I was trying to figure out where to go for Tet and I was thinking to go to Nha Trang as I was looking for a warm place with beaches (already been in Phu Quoc).
Do any one of you have experience or knowledge about the situation of Nha Trang during Tet holidays? In the sense of being everything closed down or not?

Otherwise any other please suggested to visit during Tet?
(Coming from Hanoi)

Thanks in advance.

Last fall I passed through Nha Trang and found it to be very deserted then, with many smaller hotels, restaurants and other services closed because of the lack of tourist trade during the pandemic.

So I guess it depends upon what you want to experience.

If you're looking for a place that has big, memorable T岷縯 celebrations, Nha Trang is probably not your best choice, especially since many workers in tourist destinations leave their employers understaffed when they go home for the holidays.

You might be able to get a reasonable deal at one of the full service hotels such as the M瓢峄漬g Thanh Luxury on the main street across from the beach & promenade, having the beach virtually to yourself.

But I'd be willing to bet that during T岷縯 they downsize their otherwise grand breakfast buffet and only offer a few items 脿 la carte (my personal experience with hotels in 膼脿 N岷祅g, V农ng T脿u and Ph煤 Qu峄慶 during T岷縯).

If travel restrictions between HCMC and V农ng T脿u have been eased, that is another option to consider.

You would probably have a few more options for Western food there, but it also becomes pretty deserted during the main days of T岷縯.

Last TET I rode with the family from HCMC to Nha Trang then to Da Lat back to Phan Thiet, La Gi Vung Tau, HCMC the MOST rooms booked in any hotel we stayed at was 6, like OB said everywhere was deserted, we even had a whole resort to ourself at La Gi everywhere we went was like a ghost town due to covid, however the brewery on the beach in Nha Trang was open great beers and food聽
Mui Ne area had a few places open, Vung Tau was just about closed only small local places open.
May I also offer Da Nang/Hoi An into the mix there may be a few more places open and Hoi An leaves Nha Trang for dead as a place to visit IMO.

What would you say to be a place with big, memorable T岷縯 celebrations?

Da Nang was also my second choice, but now I understand it should be my first one

What about Da Lat? I have a friend there who I'd like to visit, but I don't want to spend the whole Tet week there.

Dalat is usually, very,very crowded on the days after Tet.

Well as I implied, my three experiences with T岷縯 we're pretty low key.

It's my goal someday to experience T岷縯 in H脿 N峄檌 (from whence you are departing) because my friends there tell me that the flowers are also very beautiful.

It probably wouldn't be on the beach but I'd be interested to know if there are places in the delta that are renowned for their celebrations.

Did I miss something, I understood that H脿 N峄檌 would be empty during Tet (I also found some pictures from last year stating that)?

Do you know why is so?
And by "after" you mean still in the week of Tet or after the end of it?

I think you're especially correct this year, and in most years much of the city empties.

But it's still the capital of Vietnam and the celebration itself I'm told is quite spectacular, at least it always was during pre-covid times.

Do a search online about Dalat, you will see what I mean.
The actual day of Tet is the first day of the new year, the days following it is when it gets busy.

Here is very good info regading TET, tourism, whats likely to be closed or open.

Check the weather before you go. Nha trang has been supper rainy/windy lately. The beach is too dangerous to swim. If you travel, After 2nd day of Tet, around 3 or 4th day businesses should be open. However, even now it is pretty deserted due to heavy rain. Not crowded. Which is nice if you want that
