The Mid-Autumn Festival
Also known as the Moon Festival, is a significant celebration in many East and Southeast Asian cultures. Held on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, the festival is marked by the full moon, symbolizing reunion and harmony. Families come together to admire the moon, enjoy traditional foods like mooncakes, and share stories.

A signature element of the festival is the colorful lanterns carried by children, often shaped like animals or stars. These lanterns represent hope and happiness.
