How about going to the grave on April 5?
This year's solar term is April 5 of the solar calendar, which is suitable for going to the grave that day. In the first week or two in Tomb-Sweeping Day, you can also go there. It is said that during this period, the gate of the underworld is open, and ancestors can return to the grave to receive offerings. However, it is not appropriate to visit graves on the day of Cold Food Festival, that is, the day before Tomb-Sweeping Day, because there is a custom of prohibiting fire.
In addition, April 4th to 20th actually belongs to Tomb-Sweeping Day. During this period, you can worship your ancestors. Once this solar term is over, you can't go. At that time, the tomb door was closed and your ancestors could not hear our prayers.
Our country has the custom of commemorating ancestors since ancient times. People attach great importance to filial piety, and sweeping graves is associated with filial piety. Therefore, it is cautious and filial to ancestors, and it is also an activity for the younger generation to express gratitude and show affection and love.
