In the Chinese lunar calendar, divided into four seasons of the year, each season is divided into three parts: Meng, Zhong, and Ji, hence the Mid-Autumn Festival, also known as Zhongqiu.
The moon on October 1 is more round and brighter than the full moon of other months, so it is also known as “moonlight” and “October Festival.” These days, Chinese people around the world will be reunited with their families to enjoy the bright moon.
