What will you think of when we talk about winter? In the north, winter probably makes you think of snow and cold weather. But in Nanning, the capital of Guangxi, the weather in winter is warm. Sometimes people only need to wear a shirt. It hardly ever snows in winter while it's very hot in summer. So almost everyone in the city will be looking forward to winter during the other seasons(季节).
The people in Nanning also have a special love for snow. The last time it snowed in the city was in 1993. As a result, many people here have never seen snow. I still remember seeing something funny that happened in the winter of 2017. Over 20,000 people went to the highest mountain in the city to see the snow -even though there was just a thin layer (层) of it.
The most popular winter dish in Nanning is Laoyou rice noodles. These noodles have a wonderful taste. They have fresh tomatoes, meat, and traditional sour bamboo shoots (酸竹笋). The people in Nanning enjoy eating them in winter because they help keep people warm.
In winter, you will see how much people in Nanning love life. Although the city has short winters, the people still warmly welcome the coming of the season.
