When Tết is no longer just a short holiday, but a moment to step away from the pace of modern life, culturally immersive getaways are increasingly embraced by discerning travelers.
A Northern Vietnamese village – where culture is told through everyday life
Rather than presenting culture through curated exhibition spaces, Emeralda tells the story of Vietnam through architecture and daily rhythms. Designed as a miniature Northern Vietnamese village, the resort features curved tiled roofs, warm yellow walls, bamboo groves, and shaded winding paths. In the early days of the Lunar New Year, when morning mist still drifts softly across the lagoon, the setting evokes memories of a traditional Tết of the past—unhurried, warm, and deeply fulfilling.

What truly defines the charm of Emeralda Resort Ninh Bình during Tết is its thoughtfully curated cultural experiences. This Lunar New Year, the resort continues to present the “Essence of Đông Hồ” exhibition as a gentle invitation for guests to reconnect with the spirit of a traditional Vietnamese Tết. The rustic folk paintings, created with natural colors and meticulous hand-carved woodblocks, quietly tell stories of old village life, family reunions, and the simple yet profound philosophy of the Vietnamese people. Set within the Northern village landscape, Đông Hồ paintings are no longer merely artworks to be viewed—they become an integral part of the Tết experience, inviting guests to pause, listen, and truly feel.
Amid the rush of modern life, Tết at Emeralda is calm and unhurried
In this “green village,” adults rediscover tranquility and balance in nature; children encounter folk culture in an organic, unforced way; and younger generations have the chance to experience and truly connect with traditional values through intimate and emotional moments.
This spring, let your holiday be more than just a break—let it become a journey back to cultural roots, a time of family bonding, and a reconnection between people and nature. A uniquely meaningful way to welcome the New Year, slowly and with intention.
