The Mid-Autumn Festival comes again.
The water-like moonlight is shining at the foot of the Great Wall.
In the cool and refreshing mountain, there comes a home-coming guest,
who just can't forget the red bricks and black tiles of the quiet and long-drawn-out Beigou Village,
the American-style rustic custom blending in the simple cave-dwellings,
the faint woody fragrance that can't be wiped off,
as well as the murmuring spring water running out of the three stone columns.
Brickyard & Sansa are an exotic dreamland and your third hometown
Awaiting for your return
with a companion, a friend or a family member for reunion.
Far from the noisy city, under the chestnut trees in the mountains of Huairou,whisper, drink or linger in the tent
with individualized skies overhead;fix attention, sing aloud or revel around the raging campfire throughout the night.
Here you can find the best attitude getting along with the world.
Take off the ordinary-day armour like a warrior.
Walk through the ordinary alleys and footpaths like a hermit,
explore the mysterious realm of Beigou village and find yourself.
Be a passer-by after feeling tired of the colorful world,
attend a dinner party in the mountain with icy moonlight at the entrance and grilled food at the elbow,have a good night's dream
in a world where fire and ice closely co-exist, along with chirping of cicadas and croaking of frogs.
Everyone thinks that a sense of ritual is necessary in life.
Actually it just originates from the heart.
What is irresistible is nothing but true feelings and innermost being.
During the two nights' stay, only the fine food and the campfire can't be let down.

drink a cup of good wine, have some delicacies, listen to some music
of peace and tranquility, which is hard to find in the awful din of the crowd.
Fine food must be an eternal theme of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
It's said that the mooncake
actually originated from the ancient and rustic "taste new" style of China ".
Middle aged friend, Su Dongpo, , once described:
The small cakes taste like chewing a mooncake with vegetable shortening and maltose.
Not only the mooncake, but the Chinese chestnuts and the red trout are a must.
There goes a poem of fried chestnut in Beijing and Tianjin:
With a plate of fried chestnuts in deep yellow, I had a long talk with the visiting guest who asked for a drink.
The great poet, Zheng Banqiao showed special preference to fresh fish:
I am given to heavy drinking while admiring the full moon when a beautiful lady is cooking a fish.
In the time of mid-autumn, it's getting cooler.

Campfire Party
MID-AUTUMN CAMPFIRE PARTY
20:00-22:00
The moon appears as the smoke rises; the Milky Way is seen in the clouds.
People light the campfire in a merry mood.It is a traditional celebration of people on the grassland.
People went out to hunt and came back with fruitful result.
Then they sat around the campfire to share their prey
as well as true feelings and innermost beings.
It often needs an excuse to be forthright and sincere,
to be frank and open-minded,after being depressed for long.
And this year, the Brickyard has an open-air campsite,
a favorable condition to be reunited during the Mid-Autumn Day.
With it, also, a campfire is waiting for you to completely free yourself.
