Mid-Autumn Festival
Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as Moon Festival, Moonlight Birthday, Moon Festival, Autumn Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Moon Festival, Moon Festival and Reunion Festival, is a traditional folk festival in China.
Since ancient times, Mid-Autumn Festival has had folk customs such as offering sacrifices to the moon, enjoying the moon, eating moon cakes, playing with lanterns, enjoying osmanthus and drinking osmanthus wine, which have been passed down to this day.
In some places in Guangdong, people will worship the moon gods (mother moon and moonlight) on the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, and a big incense table will be set up to offer sacrifices such as moon cakes, watermelons, apples, red dates, plums and grapes.
