The Chinese Moon Festival usually takes place on the 15th day of the eight lunar month (in September or October). The Mid-Autumn Festival is held in honour of the Moon Goddess which is believed to have been born on this date.........It is a very famous festival in our home town. * Phanusanikhom district Chonburi province ...................................................... .....Since chinese festivals usually involve special delicacies to be given as offerings, on this occasion, Moon cake is specially made as an offering. This Chinese delicacy is, however, hardly a cake in the western sense of the world. In Thailand, the art of Chinese style cake was brought to the country by Chinese immigrants almost 100 years ago.
