The weather seems different in various regions of the country. Seasonal tendencies are more popular in the northern and highland regions than in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) and the south. If this is your first vacation, you will have summer clothes and a few light jackets for the evenings.

Public Holiday

Tet Holiday (End Of January/ Beginning Of February): Tet has a ten-day festival, at that time, all of the stores in big cities will be closed, and tourist destinations such as Vietnamese Hoi An will be highly crowded.
