The blackboard newspaper celebrating Mid-Autumn Festival is 1. Ancient nationalities offered sacrifices to the Moon God around the Mid-Autumn Festival, which has been recorded in writing for more than 2,000 years. In the Tang Dynasty, more records were recorded, and later the legend of eating moon cakes to kill Tatars was added, so the Mid-Autumn Festival became a festival with national consciousness. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it has become one of the three major festivals of the year.
There are several stories about the origin of Mid-Autumn Festival:
(1) goddess the Goddess Chang'e flying to the moon
It is said that more than 4000 years ago, there was a king of a poor country, Hou Yi, who was brave and good at fighting, but he was violent by nature and did not sympathize with the sufferings of the people, making the people miserable. Hou Yi wanted to live forever, so he found the elixir from Kunlun Mountain and prepared to swallow it another day. Chang 'e learned this. In order to show sympathy for his people and avoid the long-term cruel rule of Hou Yi, he took this medicine first, and suddenly he was as light as a swallow and flew to the moon palace. Later, it was easy to find that he hit Chang 'e with an arrow, and Chang 'e entered the Guanghan Palace and became the moon god.
(2) Overthrow the Yuan Dynasty
According to legend, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, people in the Central Plains rebelled against the cruel rule of the Yuan Dynasty. Liu Bowen, the strategist of Zhu Hongwu, told his men to pretend to be Taoist priests and sell symbols in various counties, saying that there would be great disasters this year. People who want to avoid disasters can hang the Sun and Moon Flag on August 15th, and the flag is hidden in the big moon cake. On this day, people all over the country cut off big moon cakes and hung flags hidden in them. The strength of the uprising was so great that Yuan people were surprised. Zhu Hongwu succeeded in one fell swoop, ending the rule of the Yuan Dynasty. Later, this sun and moon flag was the "Ming" flag. Another similar legend is that there is a piece of paper hidden in the moon cake, which reads "Kill Tatars on the night of August 15th". When everyone saw this piece of paper when cutting moon cakes, they got up and killed Tartars, and the Yuan Dynasty was overthrown.
The customs of Mid-Autumn Festival are as follows:
1, enjoy the moon:
The moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival is particularly round, symbolizing reunion. In ancient times, many people wanted to see the Jade Rabbit on the Moon and WU GANG logging. Modern people appreciate the natural beauty of the moonlit night.
2. Eat moon cakes:
The custom of eating moon cakes was recorded in the Ming Dynasty. Legend has it that holiday food has magic power and is endowed with patriotic significance.
Mid-Autumn Festival is a "moon cake", just like eating zongzi on Dragon Boat Festival. Moon cakes celebrate reunion or commemorate resistance to foreign rule.
3. Reunion:
People eat moon cakes, enjoy the moon and admire the landlords, all of which pray for a complete life, family reunion, community peace and show the ideal of a full moon.

Eating moon cakes in the Mid-Autumn Festival originated in the Yuan Dynasty. At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang led a joint anti-yuan movement. In order to avoid a rigorous search, Liu Bowen presented a plan to write the words "August 15th Uprising" into the cake, and send messages to ministers through a piece of cake like the Mid-Autumn Festival. After that, the custom of eating moon cakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15 was handed down.
Mooncakes originated from the food in Zhu Jie in the Tang Dynasty. During the reign of Tang Gaozu, General Li Jing conquered the Huns and returned home in triumph on August 15. At that time, a commercial Tubo presented cakes to the emperor of the Tang Dynasty. Gaozu Li Yuan took the gorgeous cake box, took out the round cake, smiled at the bright moon in the sky and said, "We're going to invite toads with Hu cakes." After that, share the cake with the ministers. Since then, the custom of eating moon cakes on Mid-Autumn Festival has been formed.
