Mooncake 2023 collection by Renaissance Riverside Hotel Saigon

The Mid-Autumn Festival is the day when the moon is at its brightest and fullest. Thousands of years ago, it was an important day when emperors worshipped the moon for bountiful harvests, and lanterns were lit up to guide people’s path to prosperity and good fortune. While the Mid-Autumn Festival has transformed over the years, giving mooncakes to our loved ones has remained the same, as a wish for a bountiful year and harmonious family union.

Mooncakes are seen as a traditional festive gift for our family, friends, and clients. With that in mind, the Renaissance Riverside Hotel Saigon is revealing three exclusive mooncake gift box designs this year inspired by Vietnamese cultural heritage: Harmony - Fortune - Euphoria, reflecting best wishes for peace, wealth and life fulfilment to those dearest to us.

The Renaissance Riverside Hotel Saigon has thoughtfully curated three mooncake gift boxes with unique and symbolic meanings attached to them.

HARMONY – Priced at VND 1,290,000/ box of 4 cakes

Inspired by a rice field just before the harvest season, with a flock of storks fluttering in the distance, the Harmony box is designed to highlight the beauty of Vietnamese culture. Rice has always been an essential part of Vietnamese life since ancient times.

In addition, the image of grain-laden rice trees and white storks also symbolise prosperity and a peaceful life. The Harmony gift box contains a meaningful wish sent by Renaissance to all discerning guests.

FORTUNE – Priced at VND 1,590,000/ box of 4 cakes

The design of the Fortune box is inspired by the image of a shining full moon embracing a flock of white storks flying back to their nest after a long day. The image of the stork is associated with Vietnamese folklore and proverbs, and is also a symbol of prosperity, rebirth, good luck and a bright future. Moreover, the premium box is wrapped with delicately coloured forest green fabric, bringing wealth and luck to guests.

EUPHORIA – Priced at VND 2,690,000/ box of 4 cakes

The unique Euphoria lantern box is inspired by each person's wish for fulfilment and complete reunion. The design of the hot air balloon can be linked to a full moon shining through the Saigon city skyline, or as the image of the lanterns that children play during Mid-Autumn festival. It revolves around the concept of freedom, and limitless dreams and the love for life and discovery. With the Euphoria box, Renaissance Saigon wishes to send its wishes of integrity, satisfaction and success to the guests.

Baked with more than 20-year-old recipes, Renaissance Riverside Hotel Saigon’s carefully crafted mooncakes deliver authentic and warm feelings of a truly traditional Mid-Autumn Festival.
