Are Qingming and Cold Food the same day?

1, Qingming and cold food are not the same day. The Cold Food Festival, usually one or two days before Tomb-Sweeping Day, is recorded in the Chronicle of Jingchu: "One hundred and fifty days after the winter solstice, it is called the Cold Food Festival, and the fire is banned for three days." It is generally believed that the Cold Food Festival falls on 105 after the winter solstice. From this day on, people are forbidden to smoke and eat cold food for three days.

2. Tomb-Sweeping Day, also known as outing festival, outing festival, March festival and ancestor worship festival, is celebrated at the turn of mid-spring and late spring. Tomb-Sweeping Day originated from the ancestral belief and the custom of worshipping spring in ancient times, which has both natural and humanistic connotations. It is both a natural solar term and a traditional festival. Grave-sweeping and outing are the two major themes of Tomb-Sweeping Day etiquette and customs, and these two traditional themes have been passed down from ancient times to the present in China.
