the origin of the qingming festival:
Qingming is one of the 24 solar terms in our country. Since the twenty-four solar terms more objectively reflect the changes in temperature, rainfall, and phenology throughout the year, ancient working people used it to arrange agricultural activities. According to the "hundred questions at the age of", "all things grow at this time, are clean and clear. Therefore, it is called clear and clear." When Qingming arrives, the temperature rises and the rainfall increases, which is a good time for spring ploughing and planting.
The customs of Ching Ming Festival are rich and interesting. In addition to banning fire and sweeping tombs, there are also a series of custom sports activities such as outing, swinging, Cuju, playing polo, and planting willows. According to legend, this is because cold food is forbidden to fire during the Qingming Festival. In order to prevent cold food from hurting the body, everyone comes to participate in some sports activities to exercise. Therefore, this festival has not only the sad tears of sacrificing and sweeping the new grave, but also the laughter of outing. It is a distinctive festival.
