    -Seasons 
    -Agricultural production.
     
     To express their thanks to the moon and celebrate the harvest, they offered a sacrifice to the moon on autumn days.

     Through Legends, the festival is to commemorate Chang E, who in order to protect her beloved husband’s elixir, ate it herself and flew to the moon.]]>     2018-05-01 14:42:57 UTC https://padlet.com/1769450/9fb49ntxjrur/wish/256876872     Sources: 1769450 https://padlet.com/1769450/9fb49ntxjrur/wish/256880824 https://www.travelchinaguide.com/essential/holidays/mid-autumn.htm
