Wire desk byline Sourced from Xinhua, Dawn, Arab News, Anadolu and Minute Mirror. Translated and abridged by the GSRRA Desk.
The 24 solar terms, consisting of 12 major solar terms and 12 minor solar terms, were created thousands of years ago by the ancient Chinese to guide agricultural production.
Today, the culture behind the terms provides useful guidance to people’s lives as each term features special food, cultural ceremonies and healthy living tips.
Minor Cold, also known as “Xiao Han” in Chinese, is the 23rd of the 24 Solar Terms on the Chinese lunar calendar and falls on January 5 this year. As Minor Cold arrives, the Spring Festival is also approaching. Most areas in China have entered the bitter cold stage of winter during this time.
Working out with diligence and consistency will lead you to a healthy situation physically and mentally. Have a touch upon the vitality and passion of outdoor exercising together with Xinhua images!
