BEIJING, Sept. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- A news report from China.org.cn on the Mid-Autumn Festival:

Mid-Autumn Festival: Exploring Ancient Rituals at the Temple of the Moon, Expressing Good Wishes Beneath the Full Moon

The Mid-Autumn Festival marks an occasion to reunite with family and pray for blessings beneath the full moon for Chinese people. For thousands of years, the imperial rituals of moon worship blended with ordinary people's romantic reveries of the moon and stars, giving rise to unique folk customs and heartfelt warmth that define China's Mid-Autumn Festival.

Autumn is the harvest season, and on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, the moon is full and round. And for Chinese people, a full moon is a symbol of the whole family being together. Enjoying jasmine flowers, celebrating the harvest and having a big family dinner - all these reflect one simple wish: peace and togetherness.

From the solemn imperial rituals of moon worship to lively and heartwarming folk customs, the Mid-Autumn Festival has kept evolving, yet people's longing for reunion and love for family has never faded.
