Tet Trung Thu is usually a day for children. It usually took place after the harvest so that parents have an excuse to play with their children. Mooncakes and colorful laterns characterize this holiday. By the way good mooncake is sooo expensive. $5 for a 2 inch. diameter mooncake.

People eat mooncakes once a year, no wonder it's so expensive. Anyone into mooncake's business? embarassedlaugh.gif2

When i was young and poor, Trung Thu meant a lot to me, even if we didn't have only half a moon cake. Now, I can afford all the mooncake I want but... Innocence and simple has gone away bawling.gif . Atmosphere , wealth has taken away this taste for simple things...


I prefer ba'nh de?o , you know te white one .

it means a sign of 1000 yrs of domination from the chinese and they taught the savages how to follow their way. and of course the viet are too weak and too stupid to have their own $hit and have to continue to worship+ believe in the chinese.......

Hay man, it's not really "CHINESE" new years, it's "LUNAR" new years. Get your $hit right before you reply. The reason we have the same new years date is because we ALL follow the Lunar calender. Just because the stereotype out there states that it's "CHINESE" new years and not "LUNAR" new years doesn't mean other nationalities can't celebrate lunar new years.

if we are stupid then Vietnam wouldnt be Vietnam now, it would be a city of China and the people would be speaking Chinese or even we kicked the Chinese out and if we are stupid, we would be speaking chinese and writing in chinese charaters. And everything we do is "Chinese"

Trung Thu reminded me of my childhood. I missed the star and helicopter lanterns that my older brother made for me when I was a little boy.
I like the moon cake with shark fin in it. biggrin.gif

Lunar calendar is not invented by China. A lot of civilisations in tis world follow the lunar calendar including Vietnam. Even if mooncakeis chinese I 'm unsure about the origin of Trung Thu .

Trung Thu was invented by the Yue (Viet) people. So back off. Chinese is the most advance civiliation...yeah right. Chinese were weak and lost to the Japanese War. They almost lost the South China. If you are proud to be Chinese, no one forbids you to do so. If you think everything comes from China, then you are wrong
intestine_treasurer
