My Favourite Traditional Chinese Festival
My favourite traditional Chinese festival is the Mid-Autumn Festival. It falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month every year.
On this day, my whole family gets together for a big reunion dinner. After dinner, we sit in the yard, admire the round and bright moon, and share delicious mooncakes with red bean or lotus seed filling. My grandma often tells me the story of Chang’e, which makes the night more interesting. We also decorate the yard with small lanterns to add joy.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is a symbol of family reunion and gratitude. It lets me feel the warmth of family and the beauty of traditional culture.
