When is Qingming Festival in 2021?

February 23, 2021 (Lunar calendar)
Aries (Sunday, April 4, 2021)
my country's traditional Qingming Festival began around the Zhou Dynasty and has a history of more than 2,500 years. Qingming was originally a very important solar term. When Qingming arrives, the temperature rises, which is a good time for spring ploughing and planting, so there is a saying "Plant melons and beans before and after Qingming." There is an agricultural proverb that goes "The best time to plant trees is during the Qingming Festival."
Later, because Qingming and Cold Food Festival were close to each other, and Cold Food Festival was a day when people were forbidden to use fire and sweep tombs, gradually, Cold Food Festival and Qingming Festival were merged into one. Cold Food Festival became not only another name for Qingming Festival, but also a custom during the Qingming Festival. On Qingming Festival, people do not use fireworks and only eat cold food.

Tomb-sweeping schedule for Qingming Festival

It is generally best to visit the graves during the Qingming Festival when the sun is stronger, so it is best to visit the graves after 7 am and before 5 pm. The time for tomb sweeping has been selected, and there are many taboos during the sweeping. For example, you should avoid making loud noises or saying disrespectful words to the deceased. You should not look around or comment on other people's graves. If you feel tired before the sweeping, you can wear jade to calm your mood. After coming back from the sweeping, you can take a bath to relieve your fatigue.
