The vast majority of Vietnam is Buddhist – but that doesn\u2019t stop them from celebrating Christmas. The Vietnamese are fun-loving people and welcome all kinds of festivals as a way to get together and party. For most Vietnamese, Christmas is more of a novelty than a religious event and it isn’t an official holiday. However, 8% of the population are Christians, so you’ll find many spiritual aspects such as Midnight Mass on Christmas Eve. You’ll also still see Christmas decorations lighting up the big cities and hear carols in stores and markets! From delicious feasts to amazing nativity scenes, here\u2019s how to celebrate Christmas in Vietnam<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
