Huabiao 华表
Today I'd like to make an introduction of Huabiao. Huabiao, as something typical Chinese, is actually an ornamental or symbolic column erected in front of palaces, bridges, city gates, tombs or other places. They used to be made of wood, hence their other name–Huabiaomu. They were difficult to preserve, however, and the Haubiao we see today are mostly made of marble.
什么是处暑？
处暑，是二十四节气之中的第14个节气，在8月23日前后，太阳到达黄经150°。
《月令七十二候集解》：“七月中，处，止也，暑气至此而止矣。”此后中国长江以北地区气温逐渐下降。
此时太阳正运行到了狮子座的轩辕十四星近旁。夜晚观北斗七星，弯弯的斗柄还是指向“申”(西南方向)。处暑的“处”是指“终止”，处暑的意义是“夏天暑热正式终止”。所以有俗语说：争秋夺暑，是指立秋和处暑之间的时间，虽然秋季在意义上已经来临，但夏天的暑气仍然未减。尽管早晚已有些浓重的凉意，北京地区白昼的时间也减少到了13小时25分钟。

Pailou 牌楼
Today let's take a brief introduction of pailou. The pailou, also known as paifang, is an archway of a memorial or decorative nature. It could be made of wood, brick or stone, with or without glazed tiles, often carrying some inscriptions on the middle beam. The normal places where such archways stood were thoroughfare crossroads, shrines and temples, government offices, bridges, parks, tombs and mausoleumns, and they generally carried inscriptions to propagate certain moral principles or to extol government achievements. The pailou could also serve as the facade of a shop to prettify its entrance and attract customers. Many a pailou was erected to praise the "lofty virtues' of certain individuals in the locality. Fettered by the feudal ethical code, many widowed women refrained from remarriage just in the hope to have "pailou of chastity" built for them when they reached a ripe old age.

Proverbs and Poems in Winter Begins
According to the book of 24 solar terms, “Dong (winter), is the end, the collection of everything.” This means that the autumn crops have been harvested and animals have hidden to prepare for hibernation. Around the Start of Winter, the surface of the earth has stored some heat after a summer of exposure. Thus the weather is not cold. Even in the sunny days, people feel like it’s spring. The weather, neither hot nor cold, is very pleasant, and good for the growth of the winter crops. Of course, after Start of Winter Day, the cold air from Siberia will come unexpectedly, leading to strong wind, dropping temperatures, snow and rain. In a sense, the Start of Winter is a reminder for people to concern themselves with the change of weather and life.
