The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the most important traditional holidays for the Chinese people. So let us wish that man will live long as he can! Though miles apart, we'll share the beauty she displays. These words of blessing have transcended a thousand years, and the poem "Prelude to the Water Melody: How long will the full moon appear?" by the ancient poet Su Shi has become a masterpiece among Mid-Autumn Festival poems.
As the full moon shines upon the Mid-Autumn Festival, poetry connects people across distances. The Great Wall International Communication Center invited foreign friends from over ten countries, including the United Kingdom, the United States, France, Russia, Brazil, Pakistan, Cuba, Colombia, India, Thailand, and Mexico, to recite "Prelude to the Water Melody: How long will the full moon appear?" in their native languages, sending Mid-Autumn Festival blessings to netizens around the world.
