Because the full moon is round and symbolizes reunion， the Mid-Autumn Festival is also known as the festival of reunion. All family members try to get together on this special day. Those who can not return home watch the bright moonlight and feel deep longing for their loved ones.

　　Today， festivities centered about the Mid-Autumn Festival are more varied. After a family reunion dinner， many people like to go out to attend special perfomances in parks or on public squares.

　　In East China's Zhejiang Province， watching the flood tide of the Qian-tang River during the Mid-Autumn Festival is not only a must for local peple， but also an attraction for those from other parts of the country. The ebb and flow of tides coincide with the waxing and waning of the moon as it exerts a strong gravitational pull. In mid autumn， the sun， earth and moon send out strong gravitational forces upon the seas. The mouth of the Qiantang River is shaped lik a bugle. So the flood tide which forms at the narrow mouth is particularly impressive. Spectators crowd on the river bank， watching the roaring waves. At its peak， the tide rises as high as three and a half meters.
