Mung 2 Tet - Duong hoa Nguyen Hue Edition

Where would Saigonese go during Tet holidays? Nguyen Hue Boulevard? Yes, you guessed right. This year, Tet festival at Nguyen Hue lasts from 28th of the 12th month till the 3rd of the 1st month, lunar year. And it's really a joyous experience (and very hot... physically!)


As I'm too lazy to comment all the pics, I'll just post them randomly this time...
