Yongkang Tomb-Sweeping Day's composition is 700 words.

It's another year in Tomb-Sweeping Day, also called Tomb Sweeping Festival. It's a day for us to pay homage to our dead relatives and go to their graves.

Today, I got up early, because I was going to visit my grandfather's grave in the country. Grandpa's grave is in a county next to ours. It takes about an hour by car, and I arrived all the way unconsciously. When I got off the bus, wow! What a crowd! Today, people from county towns and rural areas gather together. We went to the street to buy some small pieces of paper and went up the hill. It is said that it rains in succession during the Qingming Festival. Tomb-Sweeping Day is different this year. The weather is fine, and you can see the ancestral graves on the mountain from a distance. We went to grandpa's grave first. According to our custom here, the weeds beside the grave should be removed first, and then the ancestor worship ceremony should be held. Because the government stipulates that we can't burn incense and paper on the mountain this year, so as not to cause a fire, we just put some paper money in front of the grave symbolically.

After sweeping grandpa's grave, I have to sweep grandpa's grave again and climb a mountain. Grandpa died of illness, so he is still very young. At his grave, grandma remembered many past events of grandpa and burst into tears. Affected by her, everyone is inevitably sad. Similarly, we also cleaned his grave, put incense paper on it and went down the mountain.

So the day's grave-sweeping activities ended. Although it was a little difficult to climb the mountain, I followed the team to finish the activity smoothly. I like this day in Tomb-Sweeping Day.
