The traditional [[Chinese lunisolar calendar]] divides a year into 24 [[solar term]]s. '''''Lìdōng''''' ({{CJKV|t=立冬|s=立冬|p=lìdōng|j=立冬}}) is the 19th solar term. It begins when the Sun reaches the [[celestial longitude]] of 225° and ends when it reaches the longitude of 240°. It more often refers in particular to the day when the Sun is exactly at the celestial longitude of 225°. In the [[Gregorian calendar]], it usually begins around November 7 and ends around November 22.
