How do you celebrate the middle autumn festival? The mid autumn festival is on the fifteenth day of the eight months following the chinese lunar calendar. With a history of thousands of years. It's a day for family reunions. This evening, we ate moon cakes and watch the full moon in a park. I thought the story of cha flying to the moon is SHE missing. Her friends john ja, china posted at eight fifty P. M. The seventeenth of september. Schema is different from chinese celebrations. We decorate our houses with special autumn grass and eat dung. We mostly celebrated with friends tonight. I had dangle and tea with my friend in a local tea house. What a quiet night I was. Heritage japan posted the nineteen P. M. The seventeenth of september. We started to suck as a harvest festival. We have IT on the same day as in china. Sapping is our most traditional food for family reunions. It's a half moon shape rice cake with us and sugar. I'm studying in china, so this evening I celebrated IT with my chinese friends. How happy . we were. So jon, south korea posted the nine fifteen P. M, the seventeenth of september.
