Tomb-Sweeping Day is an important festival in the traditional customs of China, which is both a solar term and a festival. Tomb-Sweeping Day in China has a long history, rich contents and profound cultural connotations. Since the customs of Cold Food Festival and Shangsi Festival were merged in the Tang Dynasty, a series of customs and activities such as forbidding fire and cold food, sweeping graves, inserting willows, planting trees and going out for an outing have gradually formed in the evolution process. Recently, in order to carry forward the traditional culture of the Chinese nation and protect the traditional festivals with China cultural characteristics, the relevant state departments announced the adjustment plan of national legal holidays, adding Tomb-Sweeping Day, Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival as national legal holidays, with one day off each.

The Cultural Connotation of Tomb-Sweeping Day

(1) Tomb-Sweeping Day embodies the concept of respecting ancestors and the virtue of respecting the elderly of the Chinese nation.

(2) Tomb-Sweeping Day reflects the Chinese nation's psychology of praying for blessings, saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new.

(3) Tomb-Sweeping Day is a symbol of the Chinese nation's integration of family ties and enhancement of cohesion.

(D) Tomb-Sweeping Day is the medium through which China's traditional culture can be passed down and national self-awareness can be embodied.

In a word, Tomb-Sweeping Day, as one of the most important festivals in China's traditional customs, is not only a festival for people to worship and remember their ancestors, but also a link for the Chinese nation to recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors. The development and evolution of Tomb-Sweeping Day has gone through a long historical process, which can be said to be a process of historical and cultural accumulation, so Tomb-Sweeping Day has become a "accumulation field" of national culture. In this "accumulation field" of national culture, the traditional culture of the Chinese nation has been inherited and carried forward, and the cohesion and centripetal force of the Chinese nation have also been enhanced. I believe that in the future development and evolution process, Tomb-Sweeping Day will be closely linked with society, politics, economy, culture and science and technology, and develop in a more humane, harmonious and diversified direction.
