Information expansion:

The Double Ninth Festival is a traditional Chinese folk festival, which falls on the ninth day of the ninth lunar month every year. The number "Nine" is a yang number in the "Book of Changes". The two yang numbers "Nine Nine" overlap each other, so it is called "Double Ninth Festival"; because both the sun and the moon coincide with nine, it is also called "Double Nine". Ninety-Nine Returns to True Truth and One Yuan Begins. The ancients believed that the Double Ninth Festival was an auspicious day.

In ancient times, people had the custom of climbing high to pray for blessings, worshiping gods and ancestors, and drinking banquets to pray for longevity during the Double Ninth Festival. It has been passed down to this day, and connotations such as respecting the elderly have been added. Climbing high to appreciate autumn and being grateful and respectful to the elderly are two important themes of today's Double Ninth Festival activities.

The Double Ninth Festival originated from the worship of celestial phenomena. It started in ancient times, became popular in the Western Han Dynasty, and flourished after the Tang Dynasty. According to existing historical data and textual research, in ancient times, there were activities to hold harvest festivals to worship heaven and ancestors in the autumn season; the ancients held sacrifices to the emperor of heaven and ancestors in September when crops were harvested, to thank the emperor of heaven and ancestors for their kindness. This is the Double Ninth Festival as an autumn festival. The original form existed for the harvest ritual activities. The Tang Dynasty was an important period when traditional festival customs were integrated and finalized, and the main part of them has been passed down to this day.

Autumn sunbathing:

The Double Ninth Festival is the best time to enjoy autumn. There are still some mountainous villages in southern China that retain the characteristics of "autumn sunbathing". Going to the countryside to appreciate folk customs and watch the autumn sun has become a fashion in rural tourism. "Autumn sunbathing" is a typical agricultural custom with strong regional characteristics.

Villages living in mountainous areas such as Hunan, Guangxi, Anhui, Jiangxi, etc., due to the complex terrain and little flat land in the village, have to use the front and back of the house and the windowsills and roofs of their own homes to dry crops. It evolved into a traditional agricultural custom. This special lifestyle and scene of villagers drying crops has gradually become a creative material for painters and photographers, and has created the poetic name "autumn sun".
