Flying kites is also the most popular activity in Tomb-Sweeping Day. Some people put kites in the blue sky, then cut the strings and let the breeze send them to the ends of the earth. It is said that this can eliminate diseases and disasters and bring good luck to yourself.

Before and after Tomb-Sweeping Day, the spring is bright, the spring is bright, and the spring rain is falling. The planted seedlings have high survival rate and fast growth. So China has the habit of planting trees in Tomb-Sweeping Day since ancient times. Some people even call Tomb-Sweeping Day Arbor Day, and the custom of planting trees has been passed down to this day.
