The Qingming (Pure Brightness) Festival

The
Qingming (Pure Brightness) Festival is one of the 24 seasonal division
points in China, falling on April 4-6 each year. After the festival, the
temperature will rise up and rainfall increases. It is the high time
for spring plowing and sowing. But the Qingming Festival is not only a
seasonal point to guide farm work, it is more a festival of
commemoration.

 

 

On
each Qingming Festival, all cemeteries are crowded with people who came
to sweep tombs and offer sacrifices. After slightly sweeping the tombs, people offer food,
flowers and favorites of the dead, then burn incense and paper money and
bow before the memorial tablet.

 

People also enjoy hope of
Spring on this day. The Qingming Festival is a time when the sun shines
brightly, the trees and grass become green and nature is again lively.
Since ancient times, people have followed the custom of Spring outings. 

 People
love to fly kites during the Qingming Festival.

 

The
Qingming Festival is also a time to plant trees
