In China, we have many national festivals, like Chinese New Year,Labour's Day, National Day and so on. We often do something special for these holidays. But Harvest Moon Festival is my favorite holiday. At the time of the full moon, it's usually 15th August in luner canlendar, people gathered at their homes for dinner, then each family member ate moon cakes, that are special round cookies.People usually eat it at the Harvest Moon Festival, you can't find it in supermarket when it's not right time. It's very delicious.If the sky was clear, my family always sit around the backyard, while enjoying the moon cakes and admiring the full moon. Sometimes my pareants told me some mythes about moon. Moon symbolize beautiful, kindhearted, diligence in China, everyone should be appreciate Moon, beacuse it brings us the light in all night.
