When is the Fuyang Festival in 2023?

The Fuyang Festival in 2023 is in dog days. Fuyang Festival, also known as Zhonghe Festival, is one of the traditional solar terms. It refers to the 1 1 solar term from summer to the future, which is about July 22nd or 23rd every year, which happens to be July 22nd, 2023. Fuyang Festival is an important period for ancient farmers to rest, prevent heatstroke and pray for blessings. At the same time, the Double Ninth Festival is also one of the important traditional festivals in China, with rich folk culture.

There are many local cultural customs in the Double Ninth Festival. Among them, the most representative is "eating mutton". In ancient times, it was a way of offering sacrifices to the gods and welcoming the harvest in summer and autumn. "Eating mutton" is also one of the essential holiday activities of the Double Ninth Festival.

The reason for the dog days:

1 and after dog days, the surface humidity will increase, and more heat will be absorbed and less heat will be emitted every day. As a result, the heat on the ground accumulates, so it gets hotter every day. After entering the dog days, the heat accumulated on the ground reaches its peak, and the weather is the hottest, which leads to the dog days.

2. There is much rain in summer, the air humidity is high, and the heat capacity of water is much larger than that of dry air, which is also an important reason for the sultry weather. The subtropical high intensified in July and August. Under the control of the subtropical high, the descending airflow inside the high makes the weather clear and cloudy, which is beneficial to sunlight and ground radiation warming, so the weather is even hotter.
