At the same time, thunderstorm activity is not as active as summer, and the general trend of heavy rain in all parts of the country is weakened. The average temperature in summer is generally 65438 0.5℃ lower than that in early autumn. In late August of some years, the average daily temperature in western South China may be lower than 23℃ for more than three consecutive days.

The festival around the summer of the lunar calendar is the Mid-Autumn Festival. The fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month is commonly known as "July and a half". In ancient times, Taoism regarded July 15 as the day when local officials in the Central Plains forgave sins. At that time, there were customs such as helping orphans and fasting orphans. Today, Mid-Autumn Festival has become an important time to worship ancestors.

2. Bonsai Club

Originated from the legend of "Mu Lian saves mother". Buddhists hold a bonsai and also put lights on lakes and rivers. The lamp is made of Artemisia stem, wrapped in a piece of paper with a fragrant head on it, and lit at night.
