Autumn Moon Festival Chinese Thanksgiving

667 Grant Avenue Chinatown Merchants Association (Organisers) San Francisco, CA 94108 +1 415 982 6306 http://www.moonfestival.org/

This festival is held in Chinatown each September, to celebrate the summer harvest, and to pay homage to Chang-O, the Chinese moon diety. On the auspicious day, the Chinese gather in their homes to dine together and consume moon cakes—it's their own special Thansgiving. Acrobats, Chinese opera, dancers and magicians entertain the crowds at Grant Avenue. Street vendors sell a variety of traditional Chinese wares and food. Coming to Chinatown and learn all about Chinese culture. Review © 2009, Wcities
