The Bund, Wukang Mansion, and Nanjing Road are particularly calm recently amid the latest Covid-19 outbreak. But the city is still lively, as walking around you can see a couple shooting wedding photos or a livestreamer dancing. Residents take Covid-19 tests under the rain. Kids wander the streets as schools are closed. Midnight: a cleaner buys some food at a store which was about to close. #shanghai #photography #covid_19 #thebund

Spring Equinox, known in Chinese as ‘Chunfen’ falls on March 21 this year. As the fourth solar term of the Chinese lunar calendar, it is the day of the year when daytime and nightime are the same length. It also symbolizes the arrival of springs as flowers bloom and animals wake up from hibernation. This is the time for thunders to rumble, for the sun to shine, and for living things to flourish, according to a traditional Chinese saying. It is the best time to go outdoors and one of the busiest time for farmers to do farm work. #chunfen #solarterm #springequinox #lunarcalendar #farmwork #outdooractivities #flowers
