Eating dumplings in the north:
Every year on the winter solstice of the lunar calendar, dumplings are an indispensable holiday meal for everyone, regardless of their wealth.

This custom is left behind to commemorate the "medical saint" Zhang Zhongjing who gave out medicine on the winter solstice.
Jiangnan Glutinous Rice:
According to legend, Gonggong had an incompetent son who committed many evil deeds. He died on the day of the winter solstice.
