MID-AUTUMN FESTIVAL

Falling on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, the festival used to be a celebration of harvest in the past. Now, it is an occasion for families and friends to gather as the full moon symbolises reunion in the Chinese culture. Eating mooncakes and enjoying lantern displays are essential festivities.
