The new year begins. Pyracantha berries and white snow form a delightful contrast in Maoping Town of Zigui County, Yichang City, the central part of China’s Hubei Province.
Today is Xiaohan, or “Minor Cold,” the 23rd of the Twenty-four Solar terms in the traditional Chinese lunar calendar. Many areas in China have entered into a stage of bitter cold winter weather. The ground and rivers are frozen and cold air from the north continues moving south.
