About:Chinese Holidays

What is the holiday that just passed - Oct 1 - 7?

I have a payment that's being held up due to paperwork not being received from Customs & the bank in Shanghai. I'm not worried about the payment or desperate for it, but just curious what this holiday is. I love to learn about different cultures.

It's like the 4th of July in the USA.
