Follow Shuimoxiansheng.com to learn about every day of the eighth lunar month in 2021.Is Mid-Autumn Festival an intangible cultural heritage?It is China's intangible cultural heritage:Influenced by Chinese culture, Mid-Autumn Festival is also a traditional festival in some countries in East Asia and Southeast Asia, especially for local Chinese and overseas Chinese. Since 2008, Mid-Autumn Festival has been listed as a national statutory holiday. On May 20, 2006, the State Council included it in the first batch of national intangible cultural heritage list. Not the world's intangible cultural heritage: The selection of UNESCO's intangible cultural heritage is held every two years, and each country is only allowed to submit one item at a time. In 2005, South Korea applied for our Dragon Boat Festival to be listed as the country's world intangible cultural heritage, which is a great regret for China. But it is a fact that "Mid-Autumn Festival" has not yet become a world intangible cultural heritage. Since the established facts cannot be changed, we should work hard to apply for China's profound Mid-Autumn Festival to be listed as a world intangible cultural heritage. This should be the wish of all those who value excellent traditional culture, and we should work towards this goal. I hope that my dream can come true and my wishes will come true during the next or the next Mid-Autumn Festival.

The Origin of Mid-Autumn FestivalThe Mid-Autumn Festival evolved from the ancient festival of worshiping the moon.The ancient calendar divided each season into three months, namely the first month, the second month and the last month. The eighth month of the lunar calendar is the second month of autumn, called "Mid-Autumn", and the fifteenth day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar falls exactly half of autumn, so it is also called "Mid-Autumn Festival". Originally, this day was designated as a festival for ancient emperors to worship the moon, and gradually evolved into the Mid-Autumn Festival. There is also a legend that the Mid-Autumn Festival evolved from the story of Chang'e flying to the moon. Houyi shot down the nine extra suns, and then God rewarded him with a medicine that could make him immortal. He was reluctant to leave his wife Chang'e, so he gave the medicine to Chang'e for safekeeping. On the fifteenth day of August, Chang'e took the elixir and then flew to the moon. Houyi missed Chang'e, so on this day every year, he would place Chang'e's favorite food in the garden, hoping that she would come back for a reunion. After that, this tradition has been passed down from generation to generation every year and it has evolved into a festival. Since this day falls on the Mid-Autumn Festival, we call it the Mid-Autumn Festival. |
