The Mid-Autumn Festival, celebrated on the 15th day of the eighth month of the Chinese lunar calendar, has been observed by people in China throughout the ages. It is usually marked by family reunions, watching the full moon, and eating mooncakes.
This year, Bonnie, a French girl, took a unique approach to celebrate the festival. She recited Li Bai's ancient poem \"Thoughts on a Silent Night\" in both Chinese and French, expressing her admiration for traditional Chinese festivals and bridging cultural gaps through poetry.
Bonnie's dedication to learning and sharing Chinese literature highlights the growing appreciation for cultural diversity among young global citizens. Her performance not only honors the rich heritage of the Mid-Autumn Festival but also fosters a deeper understanding between different cultures.
