Farmers' harvest festival marked in China's Xizang

Farmers work in highland barley fields in Lhunzhub County, in Lhasa, southwest China's Xizang Autonomous Region, Sept. 23, 2025. The Chinese farmers' harvest festival is the first national festival created specifically for the country's farmers. Starting in 2018, the festival coincides with the Autumnal Equinox each year, which is one of the 24 solar terms of the Chinese lunisolar calendar and usually falls between Sept. 22 and 24 during the country's agricultural harvest season.
