Best of Boston

Warm breezes, vibrant dragons and lions, and fresh-baked mooncakes filled with lotus-seed paste for the taking: This is the August Moon Festival, an always-boisterous street party commemorating the end of the harvest season. Chock full of cultural performances, it’s an action-packed day with arguably the best street food of any festival around.
