  1. Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the four legal holidays in China.Begin at China's Tang Dynasty.
    Time is fifth Auguest in Chinese lunar calendar.Because fifth day in every month,moon is the bigest and the most round.
    In ancient times,transportation only can by walk or by horse,so if somebody have to leave home to do something,often need several month,several years.After a long separation,relatives have no information with each other,health or sick?or even if alive.
    So,watch moon(or talk,like the lyrices) is a sustenance,it's means:we are watch the same moon,miss each other,the same moon light up our at the same time.By this way,as if their hearts are together.
    Mid-Autumn Festivalis a festivalis of miss,of sad.
