๐งงHappy Winter Solstice to everyone๐๐ฅฐ
The custom of eating tangyuan in the south and dumplings in the north:
In simple terms:
It is essentially a ritualized expression of 'rice culture' and 'wheat culture' during an important solar term. Both focus on 'reunion and blessings' at their core, yet shape different taste memories and cultural symbols using the most abundant products from their respective lands. This difference is not oppositional but a vivid embodiment of the diverse yet unified nature of Chinese culture, harmonious yet distinct.
Now, with the flow of population, southern and northern customs are blending. Many families enjoy both tangyuan and dumplings๐ฅ during the Winter Solstice, savoring double the deliciousness and blessings. This is precisely where the vitality of traditional culture lies in contemporary times.
โ Winter has arrived: looking forward to warmth on the longest night, the Winter Solstice is as important as the New Year, a small reunion in the human world. In this winter, I wish everyone: happiness everywhere๐ค and good fortune in life๐
Happy Winter Solstice๐ฅฐ๐ค๐๐๐
