Millennium Residences Beijing丨Millennium Residences Beijing Mid-Autumn Parent-Child Activity

To celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, Millennium Residences Beijing hosted a culturally rich and fun parent-child activity to create a happy and wonderful memory for the children.

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.

＂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.
