Today I am going here:
August Moon Festival - Boston’s Chinatown
Boston’s Chinatown stages one of its largest events, the August Moon Festival, held annually around the Chinatown Gateway arch on Harrison Ave. According to legend, in 1368 the Chinese overthrew the Mongol Yuan dynasty with the help of messages hidden in moon cakes. These tasty disc-shaped flaky pastries, filled with sweetened bean-paste and marked on top with the symbol of the baker, have thus become the food most associated with the August Moon, or Mid-Autumn festival. The celebration is also traditionally a time for families and neighbors to gather for moon-watching parties and children to carry brightly-colored lanterns. Beach Street, Chinatown Boston. 10am - 5pm.
Yessss.
