Announces Qingming Festival Holiday Schedule for 2025

Introduction

Qingming Festival, also known as Tomb Sweeping Day, is one of the most significant traditional festivals in China, typically observed between April 4 and April 6 each year, depending on the lunar calendar. It is a time for honoring ancestors and reflecting on the cycle of life and nature’s renewal during spring.

The history of Qingming dates back more than 2,000 years to the Spring and Autumn Period, originally originating from the “Cold Food Festival,” which commemorated Jie Zhitui, a loyal minister of the Jin state. During this time, people would refrain from lighting fires and cooking food to remember Jie Zhitui’s self-sacrifice. Over time, Qingming and the Cold Food Festival merged, leading to the festival as it is recognized today, where people visit the graves of their ancestors to clean tombs and make offerings.

During Qingming, people typically visit the graves of their ancestors to clear weeds, offer flowers or food, and express respect and remembrance. It is also a time for families to go on spring outings, known as “tomb-sweeping” or “spring outing,” to enjoy the outdoors and appreciate nature’s beauty.

Qingming Festival not only reflects the Chinese tradition of filial piety and respect for ancestors but also symbolizes the continuity of life and the renewal of nature. The festival provides an opportunity for people to pause from their busy lives, reflect on the meaning of life, and spend quality time with family and loved ones.
