“May we all be blessed with longevity . Though miles apart , we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together (但愿人长久,千里共婵娟),” wrote Su Shi , a poet during the Song Dynasty , in his well-known poem to his younger brother Su Zhe . The moon is at its brightest on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar . On this day , people celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival . It has been enjoying great popularity all over the country .
In ancient China , the day was a harvest (收获)festival because crops were harvested during that period . It was a time for relaxation and celebration .Just like Thanksgiving in Western countries , families also try to get together at the Mid-Autumn Festival in China . Usually , no matter how far away or how busy they are , people will try to return home for the celebration .
The Mid-Autumn Festival has its own special food just as other traditional Chinese holidays . People eat mooncakes with fillings such as sugar and eggs . The round shape of the cake makes it look like the full moon . The full moon and mooncakes stand for family reunion (团聚)
With the beautiful moon up in the sky , people sit together , enjoy the full moon , eat mooncakes and fruit , share the stories , and express the best wishes to the family members and friends .
