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", so the Mid-Autumn Festival is also called "Mid-Autumn".

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", while wanderers in other countries rely on the month to express their affection. Li Bai, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, looked up and it turned out to be moonlight. Sinking into the water again, I suddenly remembered my hometown. "He knows that the dew will be frost tonight, and how bright the moon color in my hometown is!" Du Fu's Spring Breeze Green Jiang Nanan and Wang Anshi's When the Moon Shines on Me are eternal.

Mid-Autumn Festival is an ancient festival and an important custom of offering sacrifices and enjoying the moon. The ancient emperors had a social system of offering sacrifices to the moon in spring, and the people also had the style of offering sacrifices to the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival. Later, enjoying the moon was more important than offering sacrifices to the moon, and serious sacrifices became light entertainment. The custom of enjoying the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival prevailed in the Tang Dynasty. Many poets wrote poems about the moon in their masterpieces. During the Song, Ming and Qing Dynasties, Yue Bai's court and folk activities to enjoy the moon were more extensive. So far, there are many historical sites in China, such as Yue Bai Altar, Moon Pavilion and Moon Tower. The "Moon Altar" in Beijing was built for the royal sacrifice to the moon during Jiajing period of Ming Dynasty. Whenever the moon rises in the Mid-Autumn Festival, a box will be set outdoors, and moon cakes, pomegranates, dates and other fruits will be placed on the console table. After Yue Bai, the whole family sat around the dining table eating and chatting and enjoying the moon together. Now, the activities of offering sacrifices to the moon in Yue Bai have been replaced by large-scale and colorful activities of enjoying the moon by the masses.

Eating moon cakes is another custom of festivals, which symbolizes reunion. Since the Tang Dynasty, there have been more and more researches on making moon cakes. Su Dongpo wrote in a poem: "A small cake is like chewing the moon, and there is a pulp in the cake", and Yang Guang copied in the Qing Dynasty: "Moon cakes are filled with peach meat, and ice cream is filled with icing". It seems that the moon cakes at that time were quite similar to those now.

According to historical records, the word "Mid-Autumn Festival" first appeared in Zhou Li. In the Wei and Jin dynasties, there was a record of "telling Shangshu Town about cattle confusion, crossing the river in mid-autumn and evening". It was not until the early years of the Tang Dynasty that the Mid-Autumn Festival became a fixed festival. The Book of Emperor Taizong recorded the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15. The prevalence of Mid-Autumn Festival began in the Song Dynasty, and in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it was as famous as New Year's Day and became one of the major festivals in China. This is also the second largest traditional festival in China after the Spring Festival.

August 15 is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and people send moon cakes to each other for reunion. "A Brief Introduction to the Landscape" also said: "On August 15th, the moon is sacrificed, cakes are round, melons are divided by mistake, and petals are carved with lotus flowers." ..... Those who get married and visit relatives will return to their husbands' homes in the future, which is called the Reunion Festival. On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, there is a custom of "reunion" in most parts of our country, that is, a small cake symbolizing reunion and shaped like a moon cake, which contains sugar, sesame, osmanthus and vegetables, and the moon, osmanthus trees and rabbits are pressed outside. After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the elders at home will divide the cake into several pieces according to the number of people, one for each person, and if someone is not at home, leave one for them to show family reunion.

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, there are less clouds and fog, and the moonlight is bright and bright. In addition to a series of activities such as enjoying the moon, offering sacrifices to the moon, eating moon cakes and wishing for reunion, there are activities such as dancing grass dragons and building pagodas in some places. In addition to moon cakes, all kinds of seasonal fresh fruits and dried fruits are also delicious dishes in the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Another explanation about the origin of Mid-Autumn Festival is that the 15th day of the eighth lunar month happens to be the time when rice is ripe, and all families should worship the land god. Mid-Autumn Festival may be the legacy of Qiubao.
