Singapore City Tours | Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! 中秋快乐!
If you are on a Singapore city tour this time of the year, you will see that everybody is very excited as it is time for our Mid-Autumn Festival. The festival celebrates three fundamental concepts that are closely connected:
Gathering, such as family and friends coming together, or harvesting crops for the festival. It's said the moon is the brightest and roundest on this day which means family reunion. And this is the main reason why people think mid-autumn is important. If you go to a restaurant on your private tours Singapore, you will see they are busier than usual.
Thanksgiving, to give thanks for the harvest, or for harmonious unions.
Praying(asking for conceptual or material satisfaction), such as for babies, a spouse, beauty, longevity, or for a good future.

Traditions and myths surrounding the festival are formed around these concepts, although traditions have changed over time due to changes in technology, science, economy, culture, and religion. It's about well being together.Ask your tour guide to show you the best place to look for the best decorated place on your Singapore city tour. #instagood #photooftheday #singapore #sg #lonelyplanet #hellosingaporetours #ilovesg #hellosg #sgfestivals #culture #midautumnfestival #harvestfestival #moonfestival #offerings #temple #gods #mooncakes #visitsingapore
