Every year in early April, tens of thousands of people in China visit the tombs of their parents, grandparents and ancestors. It is Tomb Sweeping Day, the traditional Chinese festival to remember the dead.
Tomb sweeping Day falls on April 4 this year. On the day, Chinese families will sweep the tombs and clean away the grass around them. Then they burn paper money and put flowers and fruits in front of the tombs. They hope the dead can enjoy them and bring the family good luck.
However, it is not only the Chinese who remember the dead. People in other countries also have festivals for the dead.
In Japan, O-Bon Festival(孟兰盆节了) is one of the most important festivals. It is held from August 13 to 16. It is also a holiday that serves as a family reunion. During O-Bon, Japanese people return to their hometown and visit their ancestors’ tombs. They also believe their ancestors’ spirits return home to be reunited with their family. People perform a “bon odori” dance(盆舞) to welcome the spirits. ON the last day of O-Bon, they put paper tandems in a river to send off the spirits.
In Russia, people remember their ancestors on the Day of Rejoicing(欣喜). It’s usually in the late April or early May. The name of this festival means birth and happiness. Russians believe that people shouldn’t feel sad for the dead because death means birth in another world .
