The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the most important festivals in China. According to the Chinese lunar calendar, the 15th day of the 8th month is the exact middle of autumn, hence it is called the Mid-Autumn Festival. It is an evening celebration when families gather together to light lanterns, eat moon cakes and appreciate the round moon.
On the night of the lunar August 15, the moon appears to be at its roundest and brightest. The full moon is a symbol for family reunion, which is why the day is also known as the Festival of Reunion. After a family reunion dinner, many people like to go out to attend special performances in parks or in public squares. Night falls, and the land is bathed in silver moonlight. Families set up tables in their courtyards or sit together on their balconies, chatting and eating moon cakes and fruit. Together, they enjoy the enchanting spell of night.
