On the ninth day of the Ninth Moon is the Kite Festival of the Middle Kingdom.
Overview[]
In this Moon Festival, multitudes take to the hills to fly kites of every imaginable shape and size. On the 25th day, thanks is given to the gods of the cities, called the Cheng Huang by mortals. The hsien who live in the more metropolitan areas feast on the Yugen generated while at the same time try to answer as many prayers as possible throughout the day and night.
