Chinese farmers' harvest festival celebrated across China

People perform the yangge dance at the Chinese farmers' harvest festival celebrations in Yuanshi County, north China's Hebei Province, Sept. 23, 2025. The Chinese farmers' harvest festival is the first national festival created specifically for the country's farmers. Starting in 2018, the festival coincides with the Autumnal Equinox each year, which is one of the 24 solar terms of the Chinese lunisolar calendar and usually falls between Sept. 22 and 24 during the country's agricultural harvest season.
