Xi Focus: Qingming, time for remembering heroes and observing traditions

SPRING OUTING

As Qingming heralds in the warm weather and regular rainy showers, it presents an opportune time for plowing and sowing.

The Chinese term "Taqing" refers to a spring outing when people get out and enjoy the spring blossoms. It is one of the most important and long-lasting customs of Qingming.

After families sweep tombs, they often take a moment to savor springtime. Activities like planting trees are usually associated with this season.
