Hong Kong Activities | Mid-Autumn Festival

A romantic Chinese poem says “May we live long and share the beauty of the moon together, even if we are hundreds of miles apart." The Mid-Autumn or Moon festival was celebrated first in the Tang dynasty (618–907). It is the celebration of the harvest. When you are on a Hong Kong tour these days, you will not escape the decorations and preparations for the "Moon Festival". An important part of the festival celebration is moon worship. The ancient Chinese believed in rejuvenation being associated with the moon and water. Another tradition is to eat mooncakes. If you are on a Hong Kong city tour during the Mid-Autumn Festival, it will be impossible to walk passed the mooncakes.
