The traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. Grain Rain(谷雨), as the last term in spring, starts on April 19 and ends on May 4.

　　Qingming, meaning clear and bright, is the most important festival in spring. It is also named the Tomb-Sweeping Festival. It comes in early April. On that day, people visit tombs to honour the dead(纪念死者). They always spend some time cleaning the tomb area. They usually plant some trees near the tombs and
decorate them with fresh flowers. But it’s not just a day honouring the dead. It is also a good time to celebrate the coming of spring.
With the coming of spring, nature wakes up, dressing the world in green. Birds begin to build houses for their babies. In forests and fields, many animals have babies at this time of year. The days begin to get longer and the weather gets warmer.
In short, everything is new, clean and fresh. So Qingming is also a good time for people to do sports outdoors, such as flying kites, swimming and hiking. This is why this festival has been very popular for thousands of years.
