        The introduction of the Mid-Autumn Day:
        "Zhong Qiu Jie", which is also known as the Mid-Autumn Festival, is
celebrated on the 15th day of the 8th month of the lunar calendar. It is a time
for family members and loved ones to congregate and enjoy the full moon - an
auspicious symbol of abundance, harmony and luck. Adults will usually indulge in
fragrant mooncakes of many varieties with a good cup of piping hot Chinese tea,
while the little ones run around with their brightly-lit lanterns.
        "Zhong Qiu Jie" probably began as a harvest festival. The festival was
later given a mythological flavour with legends of Chang-E, the beautiful lady
in the moon.
        According to Chinese mythology, the earth once had 10 suns circling over
it. One day, all 10 suns appeared together, scorching the earth with their heat.
The earth was saved when a strong archer, Hou Yi, succeeded in shooting down 9
of the suns. Yi stole the elixir of life to save the people from his tyrannical
rule, but his wife, Chang-E drank it. Thus started the legend of the lady in the
moon to whom young Chinese girls would pray at the Mid-Autumn Festival.
        In the 14th century, the eating of mooncakes at "Zhong Qiu Jie" was given a
new significance. The story goes that when Zhu Yuan Zhang was plotting to
overthrow the Yuan Dynasty started by the Mongolians, the rebels hid their
messages in the Mid-Autumn mooncakes. Zhong Qiu Jie is hence also a
commemoration of the overthrow of the Mongolians by the Han people.
        During the Yuan Dynasty (A.D.1206-1368) China was ruled by the Mongolian
people. Leaders from the preceding Sung Dynasty(A.D.960-1279) were unhappy at
submitting to foreign rule, and set how to coordinate the rebellion without it
being discovered. The leaders of the rebellion, knowing that the Moon Festival
was drawing near, ordered the making of special cakes. Packed into each mooncake
was a message with the outline of the attack. On the night of the Moon Festival,
the rebels successfully attacked and overthrew the government. What followed was
the establishment of the Ming Dynasty (A.D. 1368-1644). Today, moon cakes are
eaten to commemorate this event.
        Mid-Autumn Day is a traditional festival in China. Almost everyone likes to
eat mooncakes on that day. Most families have a dinner together to celebrate the
festival. A saying goes, "The moon in your hometown is almost always the
brightest and roundest". Many people who live far away from homes want to go
back to have a family reunion. How happy it is to enjoy the moon cakes while
watching the full moon with your family members.
