Ancient traditions<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mid-Autumn Festival has its roots in ancient agricultural societies, who celebrated the harvest during the fullest moon of autumn. In China, it\u2019s believed the festival (known as Zhongqiujie) dates back <a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeout.com\/hong-kong\/things-to-do\/the-ultimate-guide-to-mid-autumn-festival-in-hong-kong\">over 3,000 years<\/a> to the Shang Dynasty, where people worshipped the moon goddess for a bountiful harvest. In Korea, the holiday is called Chuseok and is considered a sort of &#8220;Korean Thanksgiving,&#8221; focused on the harvest and traditions like tug of war games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vietnam hosts an autumn festival known as the \u201cChildren&#8217;s Festival\u201d, and you\u2019ll see lots of colorful parades with lanterns, music and singing. Similarly, in Japan, the tradition of &#8220;Tsukimi&#8221; or &#8220;moon-viewing&#8221; has been celebrated for centuries, with traditions offering seasonal produce to the moon. Many people travel long distances to reunite with friends and family members and host moon-viewing parties where everyone gathers to admire the moon&#8217;s beauty. These celebrations usually include delicious food, glowing lanterns, tea ceremonies, or even poetry readings dedicated to the moon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>We think you&#8217;ll also like: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/asian-cities-september\/\">6 Asian cities that come alive with culture in September<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2023\/09\/women-kimonos2-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"women wearing kimonos in Japan\" class=\"wp-image-875048\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/women-kimonos2-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/women-kimonos2-220x330.jpg 220w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/women-kimonos2.jpg 810w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-beautiful-fall-foliage\"><strong>2.

Culinary delights<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We all love to celebrate fall with some good food and the Mid-Autumn Festival is famed for its culinary traditions. In China and Vietnam, mooncakes are the classic food. These dense pastries have fillings like red bean paste, lotus seed paste, and salted egg yolk, and usually have elaborate designs on the surface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Korea, you&#8217;ll find rice cakes known as &#8220;songpyeon&#8221;. They feature a soft outer layer made of glutinous rice and fillings like sweet sesame seeds, red beans, or chestnuts. In Japan, Tsukimi dango (round rice dumplings) are displayed as an offering to the moon. You can also find delicious foods like roasted chestnuts, sashimi, matsutake mushrooms, persimmons and freshly harvested rice all during fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>We think you&#8217;ll also like: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/eat-japan\/\">Ramen, sushi and mochi: 12 things we can\u2019t wait to eat again in Japan<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2023\/09\/mooncakes-mid-autumn-festival3-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"mooncakes\" class=\"wp-image-875050\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/mooncakes-mid-autumn-festival3-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/mooncakes-mid-autumn-festival3-220x330.jpg 220w, https:\/\/www.trafalgar.com\/real-word\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/mooncakes-mid-autumn-festival3.jpg 810w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-tea-culture\"><strong>4.
