The Qingming Festival, also known as Tomb-Sweeping Day, is a traditional Chinese holiday that commemorates the spirits of ancestors. It is observed on the 15th day of the fourth lunar month, which typically falls between April and May. The exact date changes each year according to the lunar calendar.

The origins of Qingming can be traced back to the Warring States period (475-221 BC), with its roots in the ancient Chinese belief in ancestor worship. It was believed that on this day, the spirits of the deceased would visit their descendants, so it was important to honor and pay respects to them.
During the Qingming Festival, families gather to clean and repair graves, burn incense, offer paper replicas of money, clothes, and other necessities to the spirits, and leave fresh flowers as a sign of respect. In some regions, families also release paper lanterns or kites, symbolizing the souls ascending to heaven to join their ancestors.
This festival is not only a time for mourning but also for celebrating the lives of those who have passed away. It is a period when people reflect on the value of life, cherish family ties, and appreciate the legacy of their ancestors. The spirit of Qingming, with its emphasis on remembrance and gratitude, continues to be cherished and practiced by millions of people in China and among Chinese communities worldwide.
