San Diego's largest Lunar New Year festival is back. The annual three-day San Diego Tet Festival kicked off Friday in Mira Mesa. “It is the welcoming of spring, so end of winter based on the lunar cycle. Typically Lunar New Year is very popular throughout the Asian culture," said Alan Tran, with the Vietnamese American Youth Alliance. Hundreds showed out for day one to celebrate Tet, the Vietnamese Lunar New Year. “It’s amazing," Tran said. "You have such unique things such as the lion dancing, you have a lot of the décor and then also the props and the cultural villages. It’s a lot of time for family." “We try to go every year. My parents they came to the U.S., they’re Vietnam war refugees so I feel like participating in the culture and, you know, enriching your life with it is really important," said San Diegan, Yvienne Tao.
