The Chinese Moon Festival also known as the Mid \u2013 Autumn Festival is celebrated on the 15th day of the eight month in the Chinese Han Calendar which is the night of the full moon. This is a very important Chinese event that symbolizes family reunion, harmony and celebration. The event and its rituals date back to 3,000 years before when the lunar harvest festival was observed close to the autumnal equinox. The occasion is marked through moon watching, dancing, drinking, eating moon cakes, matchmaking, dragon, and lantern festival.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
