According to the book "Traditional Worship of Vietnam - Rituals and Ritual Practices" ( though Publishing House), the Lunar New Year is one of 24 weather periods, going through spring, water festival, winter solstice and spring festival, and the 5th season is the Spring Festival.
The Lunar New Year lasts 15 days, so the Lunar New Year also lasts correspondingly and there is a day called the main festival (Lunar New Year - based on the can chi calendar).
This is an occasion for children and grandchildren to return to their ancestors, demonstrating the morality of "remembering the source of water when drinking" that our ancestors left for posterity with the wish that the family would always be firmly attached to the nation.
According to the book "Vietnamese traditional vow" - the cultural and information publishing house, the old grandparents chose Tiet Thanh Minh as the day of cutting the grass on the grave and embankment on the grave (algae). Because this day the weather turns to warm, rains more, the plants are better than the grave, can make the grave landslide, so it is necessary to cut the grass, apply more soil to the grave. On the occasion of going to the tomb, to commemorate the ancestors, the deceased relatives, everyone can walk to sightseeing the lush plants, so it is also known as the ride.

Depending on the customs of each region and the ability of the homeowner, the family can offer salted gifts, vegetarian gifts, fruits, cakes... In the South, due to the influence of the Chinese people, there is a custom of offering roasted pigs, roast ducks and banh chung... All depend on fate in sincerity and respect.
