       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.

  Lesser Heat, the 11th solar term, falls on July 7 this year. Lesser Heat means it's hot but not the hottest.

  The continuous rainfall season for cities along the Yangtze River will soon stop and enter summer days. On the other hand, the north and north-east of China will enter the rain season.

  On the 11th solar term, the Yang Qi in human's body is the most vigorous. People should pay attention to work and life balance and eat food which can help release the hotness.

  Feel the vitality and passion of outdoor exercising together with Xinhua images!
