The golden morning light bathes the horizon in brilliant sunrise hues; the season of harvest is adorned with festive red flags waving joyfully in the streets.

The Origins of the Two Festivals

National Day

On October 1st, 1949, the solemn declaration from Beijing’s Tiananmen Gate marked the beginning of an ancient nation’s journey to revival. Since then, the Five-Star Red Flag has flown proudly over 9.6 million square kilometers of land. Every October, the banners waving through streets and alleys represent the warmest shade of Chinese red in our hearts. ❤️

Mid-Autumn Festival

The Mid-Autumn Festival originated from ancient celestial worship, evolving from the autumn moon rituals of primitive times. Among its many enchanting legends, none is more touching than the myth of Chang’e flying to the moon. The ancient people’s admiration for the full moon embodied their longing for reunion and harmony. In 2006, the Mid-Autumn Festival was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage, becoming a core symbol of "family culture" in Chinese tradition.

Celebrating Both Festivals

• Watch the flag-raising ceremony at Tiananmen Square: At dawn, ten thousand people gathered to welcome the national flag rising slowly, and the sentiment of family and country surged in the morning light.
• Tasting mooncakes: Mooncakes are the absolute "stars" of the Mid-Autumn Festival. From the traditional five-nut and red bean paste to the modern runny filling and ice skin, a small mooncake encapsulates not only sweetness but also deep family affection.
• Make lanterns/Guess lantern riddles: Take your children to make a small flower lantern together or organize a family lantern riddle guessing game, which is full of fun.
• Long trip: Six days is enough for one trip. One can choose to go to the northwest to experience "a solitary wisp of smoke rising straight in the vast desert". You can also head to the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River to experience the "small Bridges, flowing water and people's homes".
• City Micro-vacation: If you don't want to endure the hustle and bustle of the journey, staying in the city is also a good choice. Take a stroll around the local market and museum, visit a few exhibitions, invite friends to enjoy tea and chat, completely empty your mind and savor the "slow life".

Conclusion

The double celebration of National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival in 2025 is a generous gift bestowed upon us by time. It enables us to cheer for our country while also returning to our families and savoring the most simple warmth of the world.

Wish everyone a happy National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival in 2025, with a fulfilling and wonderful holiday! ✨
