The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of China's oldest festivals (Credit: DOGOnews.com)

Every fall, millions of people worldwide celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. Also known as the Mooncake Festival, it is one of China’s oldest and most treasured celebrations, second only to the Lunar New Year. The festival falls on the 15th day of the 8th month of the Chinese calendar. It always occurs during the Harvest Moon, a bright full moon that marks the peak of the harvest season. In 2025, the holiday will be observed on October 6.
