The
Lantern Festival, also known as the Mid-Autumn or Mooncake Festival,
traditionally signifies the end of the harvest season. Malaysian Chinese homes
celebrate with family get-togethers, prayers, and mooncakes, while kids show
off their latest lantern designs. Malls and landmarks in the city like Petaling
Street will be gaily decorated with thousands of lit lanterns, while various
other activities all add up to a festive atmosphere.
