Today is the 22nd solar term on the Chinese lunar calendar. The Winter Solstice marks the day with the shortest period of daylight and longest period of night of the year in Northern Hemisphere, vice versa, the longest period of daylight and shortest period of night in Southern Hemisphere. It usually happens on December 21 or 22 in Northern Hemisphere, as the sun is directly above the Tropic of Capricorn.


今天是中国农历的第22个节气。冬至日这天,北半球日照最短,昼夜最长,南半球则相反,日照最长,昼夜最短。北半球的冬至日一般在12月21号或22号,此时太阳位于南回归线正上方。
