Great Cold | Winter Nears Its End, Spring Is About to Begin
Great Cold is the last of China’s 24 traditional solar terms. Like Minor Cold, it reflects the severity of winter temperatures. As its name suggests, Great Cold marks the point when the cold reaches its extreme.
As the year comes to a close, winter gives way to spring. Once Great Cold passes, a new cycle begins. In many regions of China, the period from Great Cold to the start of spring is filled with important traditional customs, such as cleaning away the old and welcoming the new, preparing preserved foods, and holding rituals like Kitchen God worship and year-end ceremonies.
Tribute to Perseverance in Wind and Snow
Great Cold has arrived. Bitter winds sweep through the snow, freezing the world into silence. While most people wrap themselves in warm clothing and stay indoors, there are figures who face the wind and snow head-on, standing firm on the front lines of construction.
Great Cold is the coldest time of the year, yet it is also the prelude to spring. Just like these dedicated builders at Anyang Flyer Silo Engineering Co., Ltd., an industrial steel silo factory, who endure their own “Great Cold” to secure a stable and reliable “spring warmth” for others. They move forward against the storm and are true heroes in ordinary times.
On this Great Cold day, may every act of perseverance be seen, and every effort find its echo.
Salute to all those who strive through the winter—your dedication deserves our deepest respect.
