To the Chinese, Mid-Autumn Festival means family reunion and peace. The festival is celebrated when the moon is believed to be the biggest and fullest. To the Chinese, a full moon is a symbol of prosperity, happiness, and family reunion. Many traditional and meaningful celebrations are held in most households in China, and China's neighboring countries. The main traditions and celebrations include eating mooncakes, having dinner with family, gazing at and worshipping the moon, and lighting lanterns.?

Before the Mid-Autumn Festival?holiday, FCST team?held a Mid-Autumn Festival tea party. We gathered together to send blessings, play games and make moon cakes. Feel the charm of traditional festivals and the joy of gathering together. The experience of making mooncakes for the first time was very interesting.Mooncakes have different flavors due to different fillings, such as bean paste, lotus paste, chestnut, etc. Be sure to try the delicious mooncakes if you have the chance. We’d like to recommend?the classic bean paste flavored mooncakes, which are soft and dense.
The Origin of Mid-Autumn Festival
Mid-Autumn Festival has a history of over 3,000 years, dating back to moon worship in the Shang Dynasty (1600–1046 BC). It’s such an important festival that many poems were written about it, stories and legends about the festival are widespread, and its origins have been guessed at and explained by generations of Chinese.

The term "Mid-Autumn" first appeared in the book Rites of Zhou, written in the Warring States Period (475–221 BC). But the term only related to the time and season; the festival didn't exist at that point.

In the Tang Dynasty (618–907 AD), it was popular to appreciate the moon. Many poets liked to create poems related to the moon when appreciating it. There is a legend that Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty visited the Moon Palace in his dream and heard a wonderful song.
?
In the Northern Song Dynasty (960–1127 AD), the 15th day of the 8th lunar month was established as the "Mid-Autumn Festival". From then on, sacrificing to the moon was very popular, and has become a custom ever since.
