The Mid-Autumn Festival in Hubei is an old custom, in which every family prepares wine and delicacies and has a family dinner, which is called "Reunion Festival". Set the table outdoors at night, prepare moon cakes, cakes, fruits and hot tea, and enjoy the moon while eating and drinking. There is a saying that people in Wuhan eat moon cakes and drink hot tea, and the more they eat, the more delicious they get. Some places also invite relatives and friends to climb mountains or go boating to watch the moon. In some places, children's faces are painted with melons and fruits, put on clothes, and drum music is sent to childless families, commonly known as "sending children". Some farmers meet on Mid-Autumn Night and enter the garden to steal fruits, commonly known as "touching autumn". Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, married and unmarried son-in-law prepared cigarettes and alcohol to send to Yue's family, calling it "August and a half". Up to now, the custom of eating moon cakes and enjoying the moon in Mid-Autumn Festival still exists.
The Mid-Autumn Festival can be described as flying high. This really used to be the place where immortals lived. Legend has it that a man named Fei Yi became immortal here. Later, in order to remember him, people built a Yellow Crane Tower here. Cui Hao, a famous poet in Tang Dynasty, said, "where long ago a yellow crane bore a sage to heaven, nothing is left now but the Yellow Crane Terrace." This is the legend.
On the Mid-Autumn Festival, people often look at the moon, talk about it and eat moon cakes, often relying on the moon to express their feelings. There is a short story about a Sichuanese and a Wuhan native who are quarrelling with each other. One said, "There is Mount Emei in Sichuan, which is only three feet and three feet away from the sky." Another said, "There is a Yellow Crane Tower in Wu Hanyou, half of which is in the clouds." So Wuhan, with the Yellow Crane Tower, is probably the closest place to themoon Moon Temple.
The world-famous Yangtze River is magnificent. In the evening, there is a bright moon on the river, listening to the surging Jiang Tao and watching the night view of the distant mountains. Wuhan has a unique view in the dim night. On the moonlit night, it's a great pleasure to have tea and talk with friends of three or five on the large observation deck of a luxury cruise ship.
The reflection of the moon in the East Lake in East Lake
On the night of mid-autumn and bright moon, you can enjoy the poetic artistic conception of "the autumn water in the smoke cage and the moon gauze in the moon cage" by boating on the lake. Like a small moon, reflected in the lake. When the bright moon is in the middle of the sky, the moonlight, lights and lake light complement each other, and the moon shadow and cloud shadow merge into a "lake with golden water to dissolve autumn".
