On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the moon is bright and clear. The ancients regarded the full moon as a symbol of reunion. Therefore, August 15th is also called the "Reunion Festival". Throughout the ages, people have often used the words "full moon and waning moon" to describe "joys and sorrows", and wanderers living in foreign lands use the moon to express their deep feelings. Poet Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty wrote "Looking up at the bright moon, bowing his head thinking about his hometown", Du Fu's "The dew is white tonight, the moon is bright in my hometown", Wang Anshi of the Song Dynasty wrote "The spring breeze is green again on the south bank of the river, when will the bright moon shine on me again" and other poems, They are all eternal songs.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is an ancient festival, and worshiping and admiring the moon is an important custom of the festival. Ancient emperors had a social system of worshiping the sun in spring and the moon in autumn, and people also had the custom of worshiping the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival. Later, appreciating the moon became more important than worshiping the moon, and serious sacrifices turned into relaxed entertainment. The custom of appreciating the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival peaked in the Tang Dynasty. Many poets included poems praising the moon in their famous works. In the Song, Ming and Qing dynasties, the activities of worshiping and appreciating the moon among the court and the people became more extensive. There are many ancient monuments such as "Moon Worship Altar", "Moon Worship Pavilion" and "Moon Watching Tower" remaining in various parts of our country.

According to the records in Volume 8 of "Tokyo Menghualu" (prefaced in 1147), the streets of the Song Dynasty were filled with a strong festive atmosphere a few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival. Shops sell new wine and rearrange the colorful buildings in front of their doors. People in the city are vying for new drinks including pomegranates, pears, chestnuts, grapes, colored tangerines, etc. At night, people rush to the restaurant to admire the moon, playing silk, bamboo, flute, and flute. Children in the alleys played all night, and the night market was crowded with people until dawn. Volume 4 of "Meng Liang Lu" by Wu Zimu (who lived around 1270) also records that families in the Southern Song Dynasty often arranged family banquets and reunited their children on this day to celebrate the festival. Even poor families in the back alleys will pawn their clothes to buy wine to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.

In addition to worshiping the moon, there is also the custom of appreciating lanterns. Volume 3 of Zhou Mi's "Old Martial Arts" records the Mid-Autumn Festival night in Hangzhou: "The lights and candles are brilliant, and they stop at dusk." Zhejiang also puts out a small sheepskin water lantern called "a little red" on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival. The river is covered with hundreds of thousands of lanterns, like stars in the sky, which is very eye-catching. It is said that the krathong is to please the river god, not just for viewing.
