"White Dew" Arriving quietly



The ancients associated the four seasons with the five elements.

Autumn corresponds to Metal, and its color is white.

Thus, white is used to describe autumn dew.

This solar term is named White Dew.



On the nights of White Dew and Autumn Equinox, each night grows a bit cooler.

The “autumn tiger” is about to depart for good.

A crisp, refreshing autumn has arrived.

The dazzling colors of Panshan are about to arrive, too.



In ancient China, the White Dew season was divided into three hou.

First, the wild geese arrive; second, the swallows return; third, the birds gather to prepare for winter.

It means that this solar term.

Wild geese and swallows are migratory birds that fly south to escape the cold.

Birds have begun storing dried fruits and grains to prepare for the winter.



The White Dew solar term holds a distinctive place in China’s traditional culture.

In particular, folk customs are rich and diverse.

Drink White Dew tea, brew White Dew wine.

It is a traditional custom in many places.

Tea is refreshing, wine is sweet and mellow.

The fragrance lingers between the lips and teeth, with an endless aftertaste.



In some regions, it is customary on this day…

Collecting “Ten Whites”

Namely, ten kinds of herbs with white characters.

Soups are used as medicinal remedies to nourish and regulate the body.



In some regions, there is also a custom of eating longan on the day of White Dew.

At this time, the longan flesh is fresh, sweet, and crystal-clear.

Just by its appearance, it perfectly embodies the “white” of White Dew.

It also has the effects of tonifying qi and strengthening the spleen, nourishing the blood and calming the spirit, as well as moisturizing the skin and enhancing beauty.



As the season turns to White Dew, the summer heat gradually fades.

The autumn sky is clear and crisp, and the sweet fragrance of osmanthus fills the air.

Harvesting millet, tossing corn, picking cotton, and reaping mung beans.

Everywhere presents a bustling scene of a bountiful harvest.



With the arrival of autumn winds, it’s the perfect time to go out and enjoy the scenery.

Mount Panshan in this season The autumn atmosphere is gradually becoming apparent.

The contours of the mountains grow ever clearer in the autumn breeze.

On the treetops, hues of green are gradually tinged with red and yellow.

Occasionally, a few leaves curl slightly, their tips a tender yellow.

Like a butterfly, it fluttered down from the branch.

A vibrant and beautiful season has begun.



Panshan carries the beauty of summer into autumn.

Carrying the lingering warmth of summer that has yet to fully fade.

A charming fragrance permeates the air everywhere.

Sunlight filters through the gaps between the leaves.

A mottled, gleaming patch spreads across the ground.



Strolling along the mountain stone path, the fallen leaves beneath my feet rustle softly.

It’s as if one were engaged in an intimate conversation with nature.

The crystal-clear stream and the azure sky complement each other.

The fish swim happily back and forth in the water.

Pavilions, terraces, and towers are reflected on the lake’s surface.

A few pristine white clouds drift occasionally across the azure sky.

We are Between mountains and waters Immerse yourself in the charm of autumn.

Both body and mind will feel lightened and open.



A single leaf heralds autumn; a single glance spans ten thousand years.

A mountain in faint ink, a stream flowing with composure.

This autumn

A trip to Panshan left me overjoyed.
