Mid-Autumn Festival 中秋节快乐
中秋节与春节丶清明节丶端午节并称为中国四大传统节日。受中华文化的影响，中秋节也是东亚和东南亚一些国家尤其是当地的华人华侨的传统节日。
中秋节，农历八月十五，又称仲秋节丶拜月节丶女儿节或团圆节，是中国的传统文化节日，因其恰值三秋之半，故名中秋。中秋节始於唐朝初年，盛行於宋朝，至明清时，已成为与春节齐名的中国主要节日之一。
2006年5月20日，中国国务院在中央政府门户网上发出通知，批准文化部确定并公布中秋节例在第一批国家级非物质文化遗产名录。自2008年起中秋节被列为国家法定节假日。
中秋节有迎月丶赏月丶追月；当中月饼人人皆吃，但你知道还有赏桂花丶大人饮桂花酒丶小孩喝桂花茶这些习俗吗？但愿这些传统一直流传下去，历久不息。值此佳节，DotAsia 中秋感恩送祝愿，祝您幸福美满，人月团圆！
