Lichun, or the beginning of spring, the first solar term of traditional Chinese lunar calendar, falls on Feb 4 this year. On this day, Chinese people eat #spring rolls and kick shuttlecocks to welcome a fresh start.
In regions south of the Yangtze River, shuttlecock kicking is a traditional folk custom for local residents. Though the day indicates a coming warmer period, people kick shuttlecocks to improve blood circulation and keep cold away as weather remains chilly. #solarterm #立春 #culture #Chineseculture
