What is Qingming Festival?

Qingming Festival, also known as the outing festival, the Qingming Festival, the March Festival, and the ancestor worship festival, is held at the turn of mid-spring and late spring. Qingming Festival has both natural and humanistic connotations. It is both a natural solar term and a traditional festival.
Qingming Festival is a major traditional spring festival. Tomb sweeping, sacrifice and commemorating ancestors has been a fine tradition of the Chinese nation for thousands of years. It is not only conducive to promoting filial piety and family affection and awakening the common memory of the family, but also can promote cohesion and identity among family members and even the nation. The Qingming Festival integrates natural solar terms with human customs. It is the unity of the right time, the right place and the right people. It fully reflects the Chinese nation's ancestors' pursuit of the harmonious unity of "heaven, earth and man", and their emphasis on adapting to the time and place and following the laws of nature.
The Qingming Festival has rich customs. Tomb sweeping and ancestor worship and outings are the two major ritual themes of the Qingming Festival. These two traditional ritual themes have been passed down in China since ancient times and continue to this day.

Is it auspicious to go back to my parents’ home during Qingming Festival?

Among the folk taboos, many places have the custom of not returning to one's parents' home during the Qingming Festival.
Because Qingming Festival is an important day for ancestor worship, every household has to visit the graves to pay homage to their ancestors, but a daughter who has become a nun is like spilled water, so a married daughter cannot return to her parents' home to visit the graves. In addition, the people in her mother's family do not want her to go back to her parents' home to visit the grave, for fear that others will say that no one is in her mother's room.
Moreover, according to traditional customs, only the names of sons and daughters-in-law can be engraved on the tombstones of ancestors. The names of girls are generally not engraved on the tombstones of their natal ancestors.
