Millennium solar terms custom

Speaking of the Millennium solar terms, autumn is getting stronger. In the old days, Nanjing people attached great importance to the "coming" and "going" of solar terms, and gradually formed solar terms customs with local characteristics in Nanjing.

Speaking of Bailuyuan, the old Nanjing who loves tea has a special liking for "Bailuyuan Tea". At this time, the tea tree is in the excellent growth period after the summer heat. Bailu tea is neither as fresh and tender as spring tea, nor as dry and bitter as summer tea, but it has a unique sweet and mellow taste, which is especially loved by old tea customers. Moreover, the spring tea stored at home has basically been "consumed", and at this time, Bailu tea is being picked up, so before and after Bailu, a tea customer asked someone to buy some Bailu tea.
