Spring Equinox It is the fourth solar term of the year. Days begin to be longer than nights after this day. As for activities, flying kites is a common activity during this time. People often write good words on their kites. They all hope that their wishes will come true when the kites are flown high in the sky.
Great Heat It is the 12th solar term of the year. During this time, most parts of China enter the hottest season of the year and the sunshine, high temperatures, and heavy rainfalls are good for the plants. But many natural disasters (灾害) also happen.
