An increasing number of foreigners have begun celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival. They are in Northwest China's Ningxia Hui autonomous region, where they make mooncakes together, sample Chinese food and learn about Chinese culture.

Don Vestal, from Florida in the US, enjoys viewing the moon with his family on the Mid-Autumn Festival. Mechelle Vestal, also from Florida, participated in a "DIY Mooncake" event. Meanwhile, Anne Banitow, from Montreal, Canada, became fascinated by all the festival specialties.
