Grave-sweeping is the center of Tomb-Sweeping Day custom. Tomb-Sweeping Day is the Spring Festival of the Chinese nation, and the Qingming Spring Festival is the autumn festival of the Double Ninth Festival. Tomb-Sweeping Day's grave-sweeping is a kind of "grave-sweeping sacrifice" and a kind of "respect for time thinking" for ancestors. Its customs have a long history. The custom of sweeping graves to worship ancestors in Tomb-Sweeping Day is related to the humanistic, natural and cultural contents such as beliefs, sacrifices and solar terms in the calendar.

Since ancient times, the Chinese nation has been courteous to its ancestors and cautious about the future. In ancient times, agriculture was the main business of traditional society. In order to have a good harvest, in addition to praying for good weather, we have to ask our ancestors to bless us, thus gradually forming the tradition of the Spring Festival during the Qingming period. The custom of sweeping graves to worship ancestors existed in the pre-Qin period. Due to the different customs between the North and the South in the pre-Qin period, it was not necessarily in Tomb-Sweeping Day that the graves were swept in some places. Grave-sweeping in some places in the pre-Qin period was mainly in the Cold Food Festival and the Cold Clothes Festival, and it was not until the Tang and Song Dynasties that Qingming grave-sweeping began to prevail in the whole country.
