This September 13th (also the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month) is the traditional Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival. People gather to enjoy the full moon and eat moon cakes on this day. On the film set of the hit programme “Foreigner’s Spotlight” produced by “WenzhouDaily” Team, Bishnu from Nepal joined in a unique Mid-Autumn Festival activity and shared his experience with everyone.

  Bishnu is a Nepalese student from Wenzhou Medical University. He is currently doing his internship at the 2^nd Affiliated Hospital of WMU. Bishnu said that he had eaten moon cakes before, but has always been curious how the moon cakes were made. On the film set of the Mid-Autumn Festival special programme launched by the “Foreigner’s Spotlight” of Wenzhou Overseas Publicity Base, Bishnu experienced the whole process of making moon cakes, dough-making, stuffing, moulding...

  Soon, he made two boxes of exquisite moon cakes by himself. Bishnu said that this Mid-Autumn Festival was particularly meaningful. He hoped that his family would have the opportunity to come to Wenzhou and reunite with him to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival together.

  What’s the Mid-Autumn Festival like in the eyes of other international friends? The crew team of “Foreigner’s Spotlight” of media “wenzhoudaily” also went to the streets to interview several foreign students. A friend from Uzbekistan said that he has celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival every year in China, and the Mid-Autumn moon cake impressed him very much. Dimna from Morocco just came to Wenzhou, and never heard of the Mid-Autumn Festival before. When she understood the meaning of the Mid-Autumn Festival after we explained it to her, she said that her hometown had similar festival like Mid-Autumn Festival as well. Her relatives and friends would always gather to share food and happiness on that day. She also hoped that she could have the opportunity in future to take friends to Wenzhou to enjoy the Mid-Autumn Festival with her.
