The origin of festivals

Tomb-Sweeping Day is the biggest ancestor worship festival of the Chinese nation, which belongs to a traditional cultural festival of remembering ancestors, pursuing the future cautiously, and promoting filial piety. Tomb-Sweeping Day has a long history, which originated from the ancient Spring Festival. According to the research results of modern anthropology and archaeology, the two most primitive beliefs of human beings are the belief in heaven and earth and the belief in ancestors. The belief of "worshipping the heavens and offering sacrifices to ancestors" has continued since ancient times, and the custom of offering sacrifices to ancestors has become a fixed custom in Tomb-Sweeping Day.
