Winter Solstice, the shortest time of the year
ๅฌ่ณ๏ผไธๅนดไธญ็ฝๆผๆ็ญ็ไธๅคฉ
The Winter Solstice festival was originated from the Han Dynasty (202 BC โ 220 AD) and thrived in the Tang and Song dynasties (618 - 1279). People in the old times attached great importance to the festival. On the day, the Northern hemisphere has the shortest daytime and longest nighttime. The ancients believed that the winter solstice was the day when the "yin and yang" contended. It was a good time to predict whether it would be sunny or rainy, cold or warm, or even fortunetelling.

Different places have different customs during the winter solstice. Most places in northern China have the custom of eating dumplings during the winter solstice. After thousands of years of development, the winter solstice has formed a unique diet culture. Eating dumplings has become the custom of the winter solstice for most northern Chinese. Of course, there are exceptions, such as the custom of drinking mutton soup on the day of the winter solstice in Tengzhou City, Shandong Province, which means to drive out the cold.
