Dahan is the last solar term of the year, representing the peak of cold. It transitions into the start of a new cycle with Lichun (Start of Spring).
Major Chinese New Year preparations begin: spring cleaning, buying decorations, preparing foods, and making spring couplets. Steamed buns with festive designs are made.
