Yuebing

Yuebing, also known as the Mid-Autumn or Mooncake Festival, is a traditional Chinese celebration held on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, typically in September or October. It honors the full moon, symbolizing reunion, prosperity, and harmony. People celebrate by appreciating moonlit skies, enjoying mooncakes—round pastries filled with sweet or savory fillings—and gathering with family and friends. The festival also features lantern displays and cultural performances. It is both a cultural and spiritual occasion that emphasizes gratitude, unity, and the appreciation of nature's cycles.
