Introduction of summer solstice information about summer solstice

1, summer solstice, one of the 24 solar terms, falls on June 20th of the Gregorian calendar every year, that is, 2 1, that is, 22nd. On the day of summer solstice, the sun moves to 90 degrees of the yellow meridian (summer solstice, currently in Gemini), and the position where the sun directly hits the ground reaches the northernmost point of the year, almost directly to the Tropic of Cancer. At this time, the daylight hours in all parts of the northern hemisphere reach the longest in the whole year. For the Tropic of Cancer and its northern area, the summer solstice is also the highest day of the year at noon. On this day, the northern hemisphere received the most solar radiation, almost twice as much as the southern hemisphere.

The solstice in summer is the longest day in a year. Because new wheat has appeared from summer to sun, eating noodles from summer to sun also means tasting new things. In the south, wonton is eaten every summer solstice. In the Qing Dynasty, summer solstice was very popular, and people had to eat pasta to show their respect for God. This shows that it is a custom for northerners to eat noodles and southerners to eat wonton on the day of summer solstice. Therefore, there is a folk saying that "winter solstice wonton, summer solstice noodles".
