　　When talking about one of the most important festivals in my country, I would like to say the mid-autumn day is my favourite actually.

　　The mid-autumn day is a traditional Chinese festival which occurs on the 15th of August of the lunar calendar, which means it usually happens on someday in September or October each year, according to the solar calendar. It is said that the moon is the roundest of the year and roundness symbolizes family reunion. So you can say this festival, like the spring festival, has special meaning to Chinese people. On that day, we usually first have a big family dinner, and then is the biggie, we will sit outside the house and enjoy the great shape of the moon. We all served with mooncakes, you know, a traditional food especially for this festival, and various kinds of fresh fruits and local snacks. The elders, like my grandparents, would like to tell us folklores about the moon, and the kids, like when I was younger, would listen to those fascinating stories and play lanterns with my cousins. So you can imagine it feels very cozy and relaxed sitting with families under the beautiful moonlight, chatting about chores in daily life, when the weather is usually cool and comfortable.

　　The reason why I am fond of this festival is because it represents the underlying traditional value of China, where family gathering together is a big deal here. No matter where you are, with or not with your families, in this day, you could just rise up your head, look at the sky, the round moon would remind you of this festival, and your family as well. No wonder this festival has fired the imagination of many poets and writers as the symbol of reunion with the families and being homesick. And it is one of the most indispensable festivals in China.
