After the summer solstice, it coincides with the solar terms in summer and summer, and the temperature rises, sometimes as high as 40℃, which has exceeded the body temperature of people and animals. Liu Xi of the Han Dynasty said, "Summer heat, cooking it, is as hot as cooking it."
After a few days, focusing on the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, there is an old saying in Zixing, Hunan Province, which means that washing and drying on this day brings many benefits. There are many folk customs in old Beijing: bathing, drying things, washing elephants, drying classics, enjoying lotus flowers, caring for shows and so on. On the sixth day of the sixth lunar month, people call it "washing and drying festival".
Because the weather is sultry at this time, coupled with the rainy season and humid climate, everything is prone to mildew and damage. So on this day, from the palace to the people, from the town to the farmhouse, there are many customs of bathing and drying things. At that time, there were no bathing facilities in ordinary people's homes, but people also paid great attention to cleanliness. In every festival or solar term, people are used to bathing and purifying themselves. Buddhists especially burn incense to worship Buddha in a clean body to show their piety.
