Mooncake Festival

Every year, on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar, when the moon is at its brightest for the year, the Chinese celebrate the Mooncake Festival/Lantern Festival.























A typical mooncake is round or rectangular and contains a thick pastry including the yolk of salted egg to symbolize the moon. It is coated with a relatively thin crust.





















Happy Mooncake Festival to everyone c:
