What comes to your mind before opening a box of mooncakes? As a must-have for Chinese people during the Mid-Autumn Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month, mooncakes have a variety of pleasantly surprising fillings and styles. Aside from this revered snack, the Mid-Autumn Festival revolves around the beautiful moon, the myth of Chang’e and Hou Yi, and family reunions and get-togethers.
