What activities are there during the Autumnal Equinox of the 24 solar terms?

The Autumnal Equinox is a solar term in autumn. There are many activities in different regions. There are special customs in different regions. Here are some activities related to the solar terms in autumn:
1. Autumn Moon Festival
It is an ancient custom of the Autumnal Equinox, which was once the traditional "Moon Worship Festival". For example, there is an ancient saying that "In spring, worship the sun, and in autumn, worship the moon." The current Mid-Autumn Festival originated from the traditional "Moon Festival". According to research, the Moon Festival was originally set on the day of the Autumnal Equinox.
The beauty of moon worship is to face a big round moon at night; it would be a great spoilt of the scenery if there is no moon. Therefore, the "Moon Festival" was later moved from the "Autumnal Equinox" to the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is the 15th day of the eighth month in the lunar calendar.
2. Eat autumn vegetables
Sounds like "autumn spinach". In the Lingnan region, the Xie family in Cangcheng Town, Kaiping, one of the former Four Counties (now Five Counties with Heshan), has an unofficial custom called "eating autumn vegetables on the Autumnal Equinox".
"Qiucai" is a kind of wild amaranth, which the locals call "Qiubihao". On the day of the Autumnal Equinox, the whole village goes to pick autumn vegetables. When searching in the fields, most of the plants you see are light green, thin, about the length of a palm. The harvested autumn vegetables are usually boiled with fish fillets at home, which is called "autumn soup".
3. Send autumn cattle
In ancient times, cattle were the main force in tilling the land. As the Autumnal Equinox approached, people would send pictures of autumn cattle to every household. In the autumn harvest season, we should remember the hard work of cattle. It is a simple idea to repay kindness.
