高原的蓝冰与年味

### English Translation Title: The Blue Ice of the Plateau and the Festive Season

News Summary:
On January 20 the solar term Dàhán (Great Cold) arrived. Qinghai Lake entered a short‑lived “blue‑ice season,” its surface freezing into a cold, faintly blue sheet that draws visitors to pause and admire. Tourists in the scenic area marvel at the beauty of the plateau’s winter view; the ice glinting in the sunlight gives a feeling of openness and relaxation.

In Xining, the Beichuan River Wetland Park turned into an open‑air playground, with children playing on the ice. At night the Qing‑Tang City ice‑and‑snow festivities lit up the city with ice sculptures and parade activities. Cultural and tourism events helped small businesses warm up again. Local traditional‑medicine doctors advised that during Great Cold it is wise to “store” – to keep warm and pay special attention to foot care. Ancient “three‑stage” observations also remind us that hidden within the freeze is a new rhythm of life, and the energy of spring is already gathering.

Reflection and Inspiration:
The scene of Great Cold reminds us that seasons have their appointed times, and cold does not mean stagnation. Adding a little extra protection and care in our daily lives is like storing strength for the coming warmth. Living peacefully with others, working honestly, and looking out for one another—these simple, everyday practices are the most reliable watch‑towers when winter is harsh.

Scripture: Ecclesiastes 3:1 “To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.”
