What does Stonehenge mean by pointing to the summer solstice and the winter solstice?

Stonehenge points to the solstice in summer and the solstice in winter, which means that the main axis of Stonehenge points to the sunrise in summer and the sunset in winter.

Located in the north of Salisbury, England, this ancient stone building site is a famous Stonehenge.

As early as 200 years ago, people noticed that the main axis of Stonehenge pointed to the direction of sunrise from summer to sun, so this prehistoric civilization also revealed the astronomical phenomenon from summer to sun. In addition, there are two stones at Stonehenge (now numbered 94 and 93) that can point in the direction of sunset during the winter solstice.

The summer solstice in the northern hemisphere also means that the hot summer has arrived. In China, the third Geng Day from summer to the future is the initial stage, the fourth Geng Day is the intermediate stage, and the first Geng Day after beginning of autumn is the final stage, which is collectively called Fuyue.

As for the custom of summer solstice, China on the tip of the tongue can't live without eating. There are also great differences in customs in different parts of China. It is said that cold noodles are commonly eaten in all parts of Shandong on the summer solstice, commonly known as water crossing, and there is a proverb "Winter solstice day, jiaozi summer solstice day noodles".
