The origin of the Mid-Autumn Festival
The 15th day of the lunar calendar is the traditional Mid-Autumn Festival in China and the second largest traditional festival in China after the Spring Festival. Also known as the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Reunion Festival, the August Festival, etc., it is a traditional festival of the Han nationality and most ethnic minorities in China, and is also popular in neighboring countries such as North Korea, Japan and Vietnam. Because in the fall of seven, eight, nine months (referring to the lunar calendar), August is in the middle, and in the thirty days of August, it is fifteen in the middle, so it is called the Mid-Autumn Festival. Therefore, the night glory is empty, and the folks are often reunited this night, so it is also called the reunion festival.
