避暑

to prevent sunstroke
⛱️☀️ 避 avoid + 暑 summer-heat = escape the heat at a cool resort
避 means dodge or avoid; 暑 is scorching summer heat. Combined: fleeing the swelter for a breezy retreat — the classic summer getaway.
避 — 辟 (phonetic) + 辶 (walk radical)
避 is a semantic-phonetic compound. The walking radical 辶 gives the meaning 'go, move,' while 辟 (bì/pì) supplies the sound. Together they convey moving away from something — hence 'avoid, evade, shun.'
