How rare the moon,so round and clear!

With cup in hand,I ask of the blue sky.

This episode will take people to explore through the camera the making of traditional pastry moon cakes which represents the most traditional taste of the old street and carries the deepest sentiments for the hometown and relatives.

I only pray our life be long,

And our souls together.
