How I Celebrate Mooncake Festival in China! 🥮
This year's Mid-Autumn Festival was truly special! I didn't just eat mooncakes—I experienced it like a local with my Chinese friends! 🌕

· Dirayakan setiap tanggal 15 bulan 8 kalender lunar, sebagai malam bulan purnama paling terang sepanjang tahun

🎑 My Moon Festival Adventure This Year:
· 🏔️ Hiking at 老山国家森林公园
· 🛒 Grocery shopping at local market + 👩🍳 cooking with friends
· 🎨 Drawing on lanterns
· 🃏 Playing UNO with Chinese rules — seru banget!
Even though I'm far from my family in Indonesia, celebrating with my Chinese friends made me feel the same warm feeling of reunion and happiness. So grateful for this cultural experience! ❤️
What I Learned About Mooncake Festival:
It's not just about the sweet treats! It's actually a beautiful harvest festival where families reunite, appreciate the full moon, and celebrate abundance. The round mooncakes symbolize completeness and reunion - which explains why everyone was so keen on spending time together!
中秋节快乐! Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!
May your life be as sweet as mooncakes! ✨
