People in Vietnam think that it is the best way to pay tribute to their ancestors by offering flowers, fruits and burning incense on this day. Those who missed the chance to view this festival in April can take part in the May celebrations which will be falling on 28th May 2018. Those staying at many a serviced apartment in Ho Chi Minh City the likes of Sedona Suites Ho Chi Minh City will also have the chance to witness this colourful festival.
