Notes: Mid-Autumn Festival customs 

According to the Chinese calendar, the eighth month of the lunar calendar is the second month of autumn. And the fifteenth of the eighth lunar month is in the middle of whole autumn, so it is called "Mid Autumn". In this festival, ancient Chinese people have customs such as eating moon cakes, enjoying the moon, and appreciating osmanthus flowers. In addition, the Mid-Autumn Festival is often combined with myths and stories such as Chang'er Flying to the Moon. So it is full of romance.
