It's a very old holiday in China. However it's still very popular today It takes place on the 15th day of the eighth month of the Chnese calendar, in September or October. On this day, we eats moon cakes. These are delicious round pastnes filled with red beans or other ingredients. The mooncakes for this festival round because the moon is full on the day of the festival Family and friends meet outside and put food on tables. Then everyone look up at the sky I like this day because I can be with friends and family. I often eat too much, though!
