Vietnamese religions

Vietnamese religions are diverse, predominantly including Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism, often blending into a spiritual system called the "Triple Religion" or "Tam Giáo." Many Vietnamese also practice ancestor worship, honoring family ancestors through rituals and offerings. Additionally, indigenous beliefs, Cao Dai, and Hoa Hao are modern religious movements rooted in syncretism. These religions shape daily life, festivals, and moral values, emphasizing harmony, filial piety, and respect for nature. The coexistence of different faiths reflects Vietnam’s history of cultural integration and spiritual syncretism, making religion an integral part of Vietnamese identity.
