The children wear colorful masks and dance in the streets with star lanterns that are illuminated by candles. The lanterns, which are made out of bamboo and plastic, represent the moon. The children also feast on moon cakes. Shaped like fish or flowers, the sweet cakes are filled with sugar and meat or eggs. During Trung Thu, Vietnamese also remember relatives who have died. They light incense and burn fake money as tributes to them.
