盘点亚洲各地如何庆中秋

Tết Trung Thu – Mid-Autumn Festival in Vietnam
越南的中秋节

The Vietnamese version of Mid-Autumn Festival has taken on a life of its own, including its very own unique and bizarre legend. It recounts the story of a woman who accidentally urinated on a sacred banyan tree and for her sins was transported to the moon to be stranded there for eternity. During festivities in Vietnam, lion dances are the main attraction with small dance troupes performing on street corners or going from house to house collecting ‘good luck’ money in exchange for a private show.
越南版本的中秋节别具一格，尤其是那独特而离奇的传说。传说一个女人无意中尿到了一棵神圣的榕树上，因为这个罪过她被遣送到月亮上，永生永世被困在那里。越南过节期间，小舞蹈团的舞狮表演是最吸引人的，他们会在街角表演，或者一家一家收取红包进行私人表演。
