The origin of the Qingming Festival is said to have begun with the ceremony of "grave sacrifices" for emperors and generals in ancient times. Later, the people also followed suit. They worshiped their ancestors and swept their tombs on this day. It has been followed by generations and has become a fixed custom of the Chinese nation. Qingming Festival is closely related to the Spring Festival and Dragon Boat Festival.

Qingming Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival are also known as the four traditional festivals of the Chinese Han people. Qingming Festival has been a national statutory holiday since 2008.

my country's traditional Qingming Festival probably began in the Zhou Dynasty and has a history of more than 2,500 years.

Qingming is a very important solar term at the beginning. When Qingming arrives, the temperature rises, which is a good time for spring plowing and spring planting. Therefore, there is a saying "Before and after Qingming, plant melons and beans."

There is a farmer's proverb: "Afforestation is better than Qingming Festival".

Later, because the days of Qingming Festival and Cold Food Festival were close, and Cold Food was a day when folk people banned fire and visited graves, gradually, Cold Food and Qingming became one, and Cold Food became not only another name for Qingming, but also became the symbol of Qingming Festival.

Tomb-Sweeping Festival is one of the traditional festivals of the Han nationality in my country and one of the 24 solar terms in China. It takes place around April 5 of each year in the Gregorian calendar.

In ancient times, there was a saying that the day before Qingming Festival was the "Cold Food Festival". According to legend, it began in the Spring and Autumn Period when Duke Wen of Jin commemorated Jie Zitui's "cutting off his legs to satisfy hunger". Later, the Qingming and Cold Food Festival gradually became one.

In the Tang Dynasty, the date of tomb sweeping was generally during the Cold Food Festival, but after the Song Dynasty, it was moved to the Qingming Festival.

The legendary "Cold Food Festival" originated in Jiexiu, central Shanxi Province. The origin of the name Jiexiu is to commemorate Jie Zitui who "cut his legs to satisfy his hunger" without any intention of repaying it, and was eventually burned to death by the fire here.

The location of the mountain was originally called "Dingyang", but was renamed "Jiexiu" by Jin Wengong, which means the resting place of Jie Zitui.

Nowadays, Mianshan has been developed into a famous tourist attraction by the local people. One of the important attractions is the tall stone statue of Jie Zitui's mother and son. Jie Zitui has become a representative of the local people's allegiance to both sides.

According to legend, after Dayu controlled the floods, people used the words "Qingming" to celebrate that the floods had been eliminated and the world was at peace.

Tomb-sweeping is popular during Qingming Festival. In fact, tomb-sweeping is part of the Cold Food Festival on the day before Qingming Festival. According to legend, Cold Food originated from Jin Wengong's mourning for Jie Zitui.

In the 20th year of Kaiyuan, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty issued an edict to the world: "Cold food should be sent to the tomb."

Because cold food coincides with Qingming Festival, it gradually became known as Qingming tomb sweeping.

During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, tomb sweeping during the Qingming Festival became even more popular.

Some kites are equipped with bamboo flutes, which can make sounds when blown by the wind, just like the sound of a kite. It is said that this is how the name of the kite comes.
