Mid Autumn is is one of the most popular festivals in Vietnam. It is held on the fifteenth

day of the eighth lunar month when the moon is at its fullest and roundest. The traditional

food of this festival is the moon- cake. Children are often eager to welcome this festival

because they are usually presented toys, masks as well as lights. During this festival,

children carry beautiful lanterns, sing and parade on the streets. Traditional dances like

the unicorn or lion are performed. The unicorn is symbol of luck and prosperity for

everybody. The festival is related to the legend of Cuoi, whose wife accidentally urinated

on a sacred banyan tree, taking him with it to the Moon. Every year, on the mid-autumn

festival, children light lanterns and participate in a procession to show Cuoi the way to

Earth.
