In addition to the three major railway stations in Shanghai, insiders from the Shanghai airport told us that, on October 30, the two major airports in Shanghai, Shanghai Pudong International Airport and Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport, will also shut down all indoor smoking rooms. The terminal building will be smoking-free too. Outside the building, designated smoking points are available.

Frost’s Descent, (Chinese: 霜降), the 18th solar term of the year, begins this year on Oct 23 and ends on Nov 7, indicating the beginning of the late autumn, which also means that the weather will get much colder from now on and the frost will start to appear first in northern part of China, and later in southern part of China.

If you are going to send your tours to China or they are traveling in China at the present, there are some warm tips for you and your clients.

• Always keep warm and safe

Since the temperature in most parts of China drops sharply recently, warm clothes and jackets are definitely needed. If you are going to travel to northeast China, say Harbin, you may encounter snowfall. In middle China, lots of cities embrace week-long rainfall lately, causing huge humid and cold air. Always bring an umbrella with you for your own safety. Besides, in north China, frost began to appear in most of the places in the morning, so a pair of antiskid shoes would be a nice choice for an early morning outing.

• Don’t miss the seasonal fruits and snacks

As the harvest season, autumn brings us abundant fruit choices, such as persimmons, apples, pears, as well as dates. They are all seasonal fruits and are extremely great resources of all kinds of vitamins and mineral elements. Having these fruits prepares the body with enough nutrition and strong immunity to get through the coming winter. Special snacks in this cold season are next things that you just cannot miss. Tanghulu, hawthorn with nice sugar coat on a stick, is absolutely delicious. Roast sweet potato spreads its yummy scent far away on the street, and you can also warm your hands with it while enjoying this beautiful natural healthy food. Roast chestnuts are also said beneficial for one’s health. Good for nourishing the spleen and stomach, chestnuts can invigorate the circulation of blood, relieve coughs and reduce sputum.

• Frost’s Descent Festival

People in areas such as Daxin county in Guangxi Zhuang autonomous region celebrate the first day of Frost’s Descent. In the Frost’s Descent Festival, the Zhuang people offer sacrifices, dance and sing folk songs. With a history of more than 360 years, the festival is to commemorate Cen Yuyin, a heroine in battles against foreign aggression.

• Sunning scenery with autumn color shinning

Autumn is an excellent season for outing before it’s getting too cold. If you tend to visit the Great Wall recently, don’t hesitate, because at this season, you will meet less people but more colorful nature. The oil-painting like vegetation at the Badaling National Forest Park in Beijing, amazed tourists and photographers. The ginkgo at the outskirts of Beijing and other parts of the country shows their golden charm, covering the earth with a bed of foliage, tranquil and peaceful.

Till now, 80 years passed, but Chinese people will always remember the hardship they endured for the liberation of the nation. The Long March spirit is seeking truth from the facts, strictly observing discipline, bearing in mind the overall interests, solidarity, and relying firmly on the masses and going through thick and thin together with them.

All those Long March spirits have long been inherited into Chinese people and some of Chinese project. Chinese people are known for their perseverance, endurance, toughness, and team spirit. With the development of the economy, some Chinese project are even shocking the whole world. For example, China’s space project, 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing, World Expo in Shanghai, G20 leaders meeting in Hangzhou. Chinese people are always ready to face the challenge, and will present excellent results through combined efforts. Besides from the ancient treasures, the Great Wall in Beijing, the Terracotta Warriors in Xi’an, the Silk Road in land and on water, are all splendid works of brilliant and hard-working Chinese people.

For Chinese people, “Shenzhou” “Tiangong” “Chang’e” the name of Chinese lunar probe and “Yvtu” the name of Chinese lunar rover, are all household names and easy to resonate with. It all because that those names came from a famous Chinese myth and later have been written in ancient classic and poems often times. Now we are going to share the story with you.

Long time ago, there were 10 suns in the sky, which made the weather too hot to bear. Houyi, a strong man who was extremely good at archery, shot down nine of them and forced the last one to rise and fall at regular times. Thereafter, life became much better and people all regarded him as a hero. And later on, he married a beautiful and kind lady Chang’e, and started to teach people archery for a living.

One day, he acquired a tiny bottle of medicine that could turn human into god and have eternal life from goddess Wangmuniangniang. But Houyi didn’t want to leave his wife for immortal life. So he asked Chang’e to keep it.

However, one of Houyi’s students found out about the medicine, and threatened Chang’e to hand it over when Houyi was teaching in the mountain.

Chang’e had no choice but to swallow the medicine. She suddenly felt so weak and light, and started to float, higher and higher till she reached the bright round moon, where she lived later for her whole life. Fortunately, Yvtu, a jade rabbit, kept her company in this cold Tiangong, literally sky palace.

When Houyi came back, he heard the story from the maids. He was so sad but could do nothing. He missed Chang’e so much that he asked the maid to set all the fresh fruits and cakes that Chang’e favored on the table in the garden in memory of her. Neighbors knew the story, and all set delicious food in their yards to comfort Chang’e and Houyi, and also for good wishes since Chang’e was goddess then.

This ritual gradually became a tradition. Every August 15^th in Chinese lunar calendar become a holiday when family got together, appreciated the moon and enjoyed the yummy moon cake.

End of the story. Now you must have an idea about those special names.To summary,

Shenzhou means holy ship, Tiangong means sky palace, Chang’e the name of the beautiful and kind lady living on the moon, and Yvtu, the jade rabbit, who kept Chang’e company in this cold Tiangong.
