Starting on Nov 8 this year, Beginning of Winter (Chinese: Lidong) marks the first #SolarTerm of winter. But Lidong doesn't mean the beginning of winter in meteorological terms. Across the vast expanse of China, the cold of winter sets in at different times in different parts of the country. In the northern part of China, the water begins to freeze during this time. Lakes often turn to ice in a single night. Time for residents to break out the hats, scarves and gloves!

We want greater trade,” U.S. Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns said on Nov 6 in a speech at the American Food and Agriculture Pavilion during the 6th China International Import Expo (#CIIE).

Reinterpreting Chinese Classics：“The mountains are steep, the waters are winding and the road seems lost. But suddenly, from the darkness of the willows, a village with bright flowers appears.” The sentence derives from Traveling to a Village West of the Mountain, written by the poet Lu You from the Southern Song Dynasty (1127-1279). As the ancient Chinese poem indicates, every cloud has a silver lining.
