The Middle-Autumn Festival is on August 15th of the traditional Chinese calendar and this year is on September 15th of the solar calendar this year. We have mooncakes and dinner with relatives togerther. The moon is the roundest and brightest on that day. The Middle-Autumn Festival has existed for 1,500 years. The ancient Chinese sacrificed to the moon and they also had mooncakes and drank sweet-scented osmanthus wine. Because the transportation was undeveloped, ancient Chinese could not be with family numbers, so they missed their hometowns very much on that day. Although they could not be together, they but could appreciate the same moon. Then a great deal of beautiful poetry about the moon was handed down. Most of the poetry expressed the sense of missing hometown and family.**Here are some tips to help you in the future....
1) Examples for Dates: 8th of September, 1st of January OR September 8th, January 1st
2) NOT english, chinese, french, american BUT English, Chinese, French, American
