中國(guó)人自古以來就在中秋時(shí)節(jié)慶祝豐收。這與北美地區(qū)慶祝感恩節(jié)的習(xí)俗十分相似。過中秋節(jié)的習(xí)俗于唐代早期在中國(guó)各地開始流行。中秋節(jié)在農(nóng)歷八月十五，是人們拜月的節(jié)日。這天夜晚皓月當(dāng)空，人們合家團(tuán)聚，共賞明月。2006年，中秋節(jié)被列為中國(guó)的文化遺產(chǎn)，2008年又被定為公共假日。月餅被視為中秋節(jié)不可或缺的美食。人們將月餅作為禮物饋贈(zèng)親友或在家庭聚會(huì)上享用。傳統(tǒng)的月餅上帶有“壽(longevity)”、“福”或“和”等字樣。

Since ancient times, the Chinese people have celebrated the harvest during the mid-autumn season, which is similar to the custom of celebrating Thanksgiving in North America. The custom of celebrating the Mid-Autumn festival began to prevail in all parts of China in the early Tang Dynasty. Falling on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, the Mid-Autumn festival is a day on which people worship the moon. On this day, under the dazzling bright moon, people reunite with their family and enjoy the beauty of the moon together. In 2006, the Mid-Autumn festival was listed as part of China’s cultural heritage, as was prescribed as a public holiday in the year of 2008. Moon cakes, as indispensable delicious food of the festival, are chosen as gifts sent to relatives and friends and usually enjoyed at family gatherings. There are Chinese characters, such as “l(fā)ongevity”, “good fortune” and “harmony”, on the traditional moon cakes.
