Originating over a thousand years ago during the Song dynasty (China) (960–1279 A.D.), it remains deeply significant today. In Northern Vietnam, Hmong New Year is celebrated about a month before the Lunar New Year observed by the Kinh people. This “early Tet” is a time for rest, gratitude to ancestors, and celebrating the harvest. Farming tools are ceremonially honored, with offerings like chicken, corn cakes, and beverages, symbolizing the transition from work to festivities.
