Almost time for mooncake

This year's Mid-Autumn Festival falls on Sept 15, but as usual, mooncake gifting starts way ahead of the day. If you are a moon cake lover or have friends and family to send mooncakes to, this is the best time to start investigating all the best moon cakes Beijing's hotels have to offer. You can start by checking out mooncakes by the Ritz-Carlton Beijing, which has been known for its fine and sophisticated traditional Chinese mooncakes. The hotel's three options are priced at 238 yuan (4 pieces), 338 yuan (6 pieces) and 438 yuan (eight pieces).
