🎧  Listen to Introduction

Qingming Festival is a traditional festival in my country with a history of more than 2,000 years. "Huainanzi Tianwenxun" says: "Fifteen days after the spring equinox, the Big Dipper points to Yi, and the Qingming wind arrives." According to "Sui Shi Baiwen", "All things grow at this time, and they are all clean and bright, so it is called Qingming." The origin of Qingming Festival is said to be a festival to commemorate Jie Zitui, a Jin man in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods. The Wuhe Qingming Temple Fair is mainly about worshiping the city god, folk tomb sweeping, ancestor worship, singing and dancing, folk activities, and commercial activities. It reflects people's beautiful wish to live in harmony with nature and live and work in peace and contentment, inherits and develops Huaihe culture, promotes the prosperity of local folk songs and various Huaihe regional cultural activities, expands the living space of Buddhism, Taoism culture and other folk arts in the Huaihe River Basin, and drives the development of the local commercial economy. Wuhe Qingming Temple Fair is a temple fair with a large scale, a long history, a large number of people, and a full display of national spirit in the Huaihe River Basin.
