Qingming Festival (Tomb-sweeping Day) which falls on either April 4th or 5th of the gregorian calendar, is one of the Chinese important festivals.

Qingming Festival is a time of many different activities, among which the main ones are tomb sweeping, taking a spring outing, and flying kites. Some other lost customs like wearing willow branches on the head and riding on swings have added infinite joy in past days. The festival is a combination of sadness and happiness.
