One of the most important traditional customs of China during the Mid-Autumn Festival can be traced back to ancient China. The custom of moon-watching during the Mid-Autumn Festival originated from the ancient “Autumn Festival” moon-worshiping ceremony. The ancients believed that the moon was the most round at this time, symbolizing family reunion and the joy of harvest.
Modern moon-watching activities are usually held at night with family or friends, finding a place with a wide view to watch the bright full moon. In many places, activities such as lantern riddles and folk art performances are also held to add to the festive atmosphere.
In some places, people also release Kongming lanterns on the day of Mid-Autumn Festival. These lanterns flutter in the night sky, symbolizing good wishes for the future.
In general, moon-watching is not only a way of celebration, but also an expression of emotion, conveying the good expectation of family reunion.
