TombSweepingDay
Tomb-Sweeping Day is expressed in English as TombSweepingDay. Tomb-Sweeping Day is an ancient festival of the Chinese nation. It is not only a solemn festival to pay homage to ancestors, but also a happy festival for people to get close to nature, go for an outing and enjoy the fun of spring. Tomb-Sweeping Day's integration of natural solar terms and humanistic customs is a combination of human and natural conditions, which fully embodies the idea that the ancestors of the Chinese nation pursued the harmony of "heaven, earth and people", and paid attention to adapting to the right time and place and following the laws of nature.

Cockfighting
Speaking of cockfighting, I guess everyone will be curious and wonder, "What kind of chicken does Tomb-Sweeping Day fight?" However, in ancient China, cockfighting was indeed held in Tomb-Sweeping Day on this day, and the Qingming cockfighting was still very popular, but it was just going to be thrown away today.
Silkworm Flower Festival
This custom is not found everywhere, only in some silkworm towns. On this day, various activities will be held, such as welcoming the silkworm gods, worshipping incense benches and raising poles at the silkworm flower festival. It is a pity that this unique Qingming folk custom has been lost in many places.
