The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the important traditional festivals in China. It is usually celebrated on the 15th day of the eighth month in the lunar calendar.
During this festival, families gather together to admire the full moon, which is regarded as a symbol of reunion. People eat mooncakes, which come in various flavors such as lotus seed paste, red bean paste, and five-nut. Mooncakes are not only delicious treats but also carry cultural significance.
In addition to enjoying mooncakes and moon-gazing, some people also light lanterns, perform dragon dances, and engage in other festive activities. The Mid-Autumn Festival is a time for people to express their longing for family and friends and cherish the moments of togetherness.
