In the Chaoshan area in Guangdong Province, the Mid-Autumn Festival is celebrated with a unique ceremony called "Bai Yue Niang (拜月娘)," a traditional custom to worship the Moon Goddess in the Chinese Taoist mythology - Tai Yin Xing Jun(太阴星君). On the day of the festival, families gather under the bright full moon and set up their altars adorned with fruits, mooncakes, and incense, praying for blessings and good fortune.
