During the Mid-Autumn Festival, mooncakes become the most sought-after product in Vietnam as people enjoy the pleasure of gathering around with their family to drink tea and eat the square pastries. 

Online sales are being implemented by mooncake businesses with a variety of products from the common to the high-end.

Although celebrations for the Mid-Autumn Festival have evolved over the years, the annual event has kept the same meaning, providing a special occasion for family reunions, vibrant dragon dances, colourful lanterns, and delicious moon cakes.

Mooncakes are among many types of Vietnamese cakes successfully exported to foreign markets. 

Despite cheap plastic mooncake moulds being extremely popular among the domestic market, a family from Hanoi have maintained a tradition of crafting wooden mooncake molds for approximately 40 years.

An important element of celebrations during the fast-approaching Mid-Autumn Festival is the toys that parents buy for their kids.

To make a beautiful and tasty mooncake, the most important task is to form the shape of the cake. That is when the mooncake mould becomes handy and indispensible in making a cake.  

The Vietnam Museum of Ethnology has organised several activities to help children learn more about traditional games and fruit trays in the festival.

With the Mid-Autumn festival drawing near, mooncake markets are bustling as stalls offer a variety of different kinds of handmade cakes in all sorts of shapes, sizes, and colours.

More Chinese toys are being exported to Vietnam and are getting cheaper as a result of the US-China trade war.

 VietNamNet Bridge – One of the biggest celebrations of the year, the Mid Autumn festival brings families together to share food and fun.

Hanoi has sketched out a 20 trillion VND (940 million USD) project to develop urban areas along the Nhat Tan –Noi Bai axis, which is expected to become a driving force for the development of the city’s northern region.
