The Mid-Autumn Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival, is one of the most important traditional festivals in my country. It falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month every year. The word "Mid-Autumn Festival" was first seen in "Zhou Rites". By the early Tang Dynasty, the Mid-Autumn Festival became a fixed festival. The moon on August 15th is rounder and brighter than the full moon in other months, so it is also called "Moon Eve" and "August Festival". This night, when people look up at the bright moon in the sky, they naturally look forward to family reunions. Wanderers who are far away from home also use this to express their longing for their hometown and relatives. Therefore, the Mid-Autumn Festival is also called the "Reunion Festival".

Moon cakes originally originated from the Tang Dynasty army’s food to celebrate victory. Eat moon cakes to express "reunion". Moon cakes, also called Hu cakes, palace cakes, moon cakes, harvest cakes, reunion cakes, etc., were offerings to worship the moon god during the Mid-Autumn Festival in ancient times. According to legend, in ancient my country, emperors had the ritual system of worshiping the sun in spring and the moon in autumn. Among the people, during the Mid-Autumn Festival in August, there is also the custom of worshiping or offering sacrifices to the moon. "The moon is full on August and fifteenth, and the Mid-Autumn moon cakes are fragrant and sweet." This famous proverb describes the custom of urban and rural people eating moon cakes on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival. Mooncakes were originally used as sacrifices to worship the moon god. Later, people gradually regarded appreciating the moon and tasting mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival as a symbol of family reunion.
