今日夏至：关于夏至的6个小常识 6 things you may not know about Summer Solstice

Seeing the sun turn around

看太阳转身

Hani autonomous county of Mojiang, Southwest China's Yunnan province is located on the northern tropic. Every year on the Summer Solstice, the sun sits directly over the Tropic of Cancer and returns from north to south. Then, the amazing phenomenon known as "upright pole with no shadows" occurs.

云南省墨江哈尼族自治县位于北回归线上。每年夏至，太阳会直射北回归线，而后太阳直射点将从北半球逐渐南移至南半球。此时就会出现“立竿不见影”的奇观。

The Hani people revere the sun. They welcome the turn-around of the sun and offer sacrifices to it.

哈尼族人崇拜太阳，每年夏至日，他们都会喜迎“太阳转身”，并献上祭品。
