Tet worst time of year in eyes of foreigners in Vietnam

As Tet approaches, the influx of people returning home results in a significant decrease in the usual hustle and bustle of major cities like Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi. Rohan Barks, hailing from Australia, agreed that Tet was the worst time of the year to visit Vietnam. To a reader named Daniel Sternberg, Ho Chi Minh City during Tet is perfect for riding a motorbike, for there is little traffic in this southern city. John Fawcett, an expat in Ho Chi Minh City, commented that the city becomes quiet with little traffic and less pollution during the holiday. “I would say the best overall,” Walter Yousseph expressed his opinion about Tet in Vietnam.
