Isn't the Mid-Autumn Festival unique to our Chinese nation?

The Mid-Autumn Festival is a traditional festival of the Chinese nation, but it should actually be a traditional festival of the Han nationality. However, after the multi-ethnic integration, the Han nationality, as the largest and most important ethnic group in China, has been followed by everyone. In fact, many ethnic minorities have their own traditional festivals, but they are not as popular as Han festivals.

The origin of the Mid-Autumn festival

The 15th day of the eighth lunar month is the traditional Mid-Autumn Festival in China and the second largest traditional festival in China after the Spring Festival. August 15th is in the middle of autumn, so it is called Mid-Autumn Festival. The ancient calendar in China called August in the middle of autumn "Mid-Autumn Festival", so the Mid-Autumn Festival is also called "Mid-Autumn Festival".

On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, the moonlight is bright. The ancients regarded the full moon as a symbol of reunion, so August 15 was also called "Reunion Festival". Throughout the ages, people often use "full moon" and "lack of moon" to describe "joys and sorrows", and vagrants living in other places also rely on the moon to express their affection. In the Tang Dynasty, Li Bai's poem "Looking up, I found it was moonlight, and then sinking back, I suddenly remembered home" and so on, "He knows that the dew will be frost tonight, and the moonlight at home is so bright!" Written by Du Fu, there is also "Jiang Nanan spring breeze is green, when will the bright moon shine on me?" In the Song Dynasty, Wang Anshi wrote all the eternal songs.
