In the evening of February 2 (the 28th day of the last lunar month 2018), Hanoi Railway Station still full of passengers waiting to take their trains back home to enjoy Tet.
Peach branches bearing the Tet culture of the North are carefully packed on board. In addition to peach blossoms, many bring along other flowers, candies and even pets to go home with them to celebrate Tet.
For railway staff on North-South trains departing from Hanoi to Saigon Station, welcoming Tet on the trains has become so familiar to them. This year, they will welcome the New Year's Eve in Da Nang. The train is their second home.
The trains offer free drinking water. Passengers can directly go to the last car to buy food or wait for the staff to pull the trolley over to give them many choices of meals.
Instant noodles are the most popular food.
Children are always the most eager when experiencing their train ride.
While adults are often nervous, wishing that they can return home as soon as possible to reunite with their families for Tet.
The joy at the last station.
