The difference between Mid-Autumn Festival and Tomb-Sweeping Day

The differences between Mid-Autumn Festival and Tomb-Sweeping Day are as follows:

1, Mid-Autumn Festival, that is, the ancestor worship festival in July and a half, also known as Shigu Festival, Ghost Festival, Zhai Gu Festival and Emperor Guan Festival. Festival customs mainly include ancestor worship, setting off river lanterns, worshiping the dead and burning paper ingots. Mid-Autumn Festival evolved from the ancient "July and a half", harvesting crops in autumn and offering sacrifices to ancestors.

2. Tomb-Sweeping Day, also known as the outing festival, is celebrated at the turn of mid-spring and late spring. Qingming has two connotations: nature and humanity. It is both a natural solar term and a traditional festival. Tomb-Sweeping Day is a traditional major Spring Festival. It is a fine tradition left by the Chinese nation for thousands of years to sweep graves and remember our ancestors. It is not only conducive to promoting filial piety, awakening family memories, but also conducive to promoting the cohesion and identity of family members and even the nation.
