The Qingming Festival is at the turn of mid-spring and late spring, that is, the 108th day after the winter solstice. It is a traditional Chinese festival. It is the fifth solar term of spring.
Among the 24 solar terms, only Qingming is both a solar term and a festival. Qingming is also one of the sacrificial festivals in our country. In ancient times, the sundial was measured by Tugui, and 24 solar terms were divided according to the length of the sun's shadow, and each of the 24 solar terms corresponded to a certain position reached by the sun every 15 degrees of movement on the ecliptic.
And Qingming is at 15 degrees of yellow longitude. How do you calculate that Qingming Festival is on that day? He is based on the beginning of spring, adding an hour and a small number of months as the Qingming festival time.
It is 15 days after the vernal equinox. That is, the 108th day after the winter solstice. In fact, the Qingming Festival is between April 5 and April 6 every year, and the Qingming Festival in every leap year is on April 4 (the next year in leap years will also appear on April 4), and other years on the 5th.
Why is there such a change, because there are 24 solar terms in 365 days a year (one solar term in half a month), and half a month is 14 in the end? 15?16 days?
So there is the Qingming Festival on April 4. 5th. 6th situation.

Qingming Festival is the fifth or sixth day of April in the Gregorian calendar, because it is set in the 24 solar terms, fifteen days after the vernal equinox, so it is not fixed on the fifth day of April in the Gregorian calendar, nor is it determined by the lunar calendar.

Qingming Festival is also a very traditional festival, in the Qingming Festival is generally necessary to carry out tomb sweeping sacrifices and other activities, but now the Qingming Festival needs to pay attention to the relevant time issues, because the previous Qingming Festival time was on April 5, but the current Qingming Festival time was restructured on April 4, so many people may not understand why the time of the Qingming Festival will be changed by one day, and it will be advanced, so let's take a look at why the time of the Qingming Festival will be restructured, Why did you change the time of Qingming Festival? Let's take a look.
1. Lunar and Gregorian calendars.
The current time can be divided into lunar calendar or solar calendar, generally in life these two kinds of timing time are used by the back, and these two kinds of time have this different way of use, not to say that in ordinary life at will to use any kind of day timing is OK. Generally in ordinary life, the solar calendar, that is, belongs to the Gregorian calendar, this solar calendar is generally used in school or some working days, so that it can be more convenient to calculate the time, the solar calendar in ordinary life when calculating the time is generally calculated by the number of months and days, that is, the calendar we use now can often see the months and days of this kind, so it looks more clear, there will be no unclear places. The lunar calendar generally appears on the calendar used now, but compared with the solar calendar, the way the lunar calendar is generally used for some festivals or some solar terms There are more records, so in ordinary life, the solar calendar and the lunar calendar are also clearly distinguished.
2. Qingming Festival is not April 5th.
In ordinary life, the Qingming Festival is generally April 5th, but sometimes you will find that the Qingming Festival will be one day earlier, and it is already the Qingming Festival on April 4th, this is because the Qingming Festival is generally calculated according to the position of the sun in life. This also leads to the fact that the Qingming Festival does not necessarily mean that it must be on the fixed day of April 4, sometimes the Qingming Festival will be on April 4 or April 5 or April 6, so in ordinary life, the time of the Qingming Festival is not fixed.
The time of the Qingming Festival in life is not fixed on April 4, the Qingming Festival is related to the rotation of the earth around the sun, so sometimes there is a reason for the irregular days of the Qingming Festival, but the fixed customs of the Qingming Festival will not change because of time.

Qingming Festival is a very traditional Chinese sacrificial festival, on this day, some wanderers have to return to their hometown to sweep the tomb, the country also stipulates the holiday in the Qingming Festival, some friends found that most of the Qingming Festival is April 5th, I want to know if the Qingming Festival is this day every year. So is the Qingming Festival every year on the 5th of April Luming, and is the Qingming Festival always on April 5th? Here is a detailed answer to this question.
The annual Qingming Festival does not necessarily fall on April 5th, but generally changes between April 4th and April 6th, which means that it is not fixed on April 5th, and may also be on the other two days.
Because the Qingming Festival is calculated according to the Gregorian calendar, not the Gregorian calendar, for example, the Qingming Festival in 2021 is on April 4. Because the earth's revolution is 360 degrees of ecliptic longitude, and when the earth reaches zero degrees of ecliptic longitude, it is set as the vernal equinox, and the next solar term is the next solar term if it continues to run 15 degrees, and there are a total of 24 solar terms throughout the year. The date of the solar terms on the solar calendar is fixed, and due to the leap year of Gao Sihui, there will be a difference of one or two days.
We will find that many years of Qingming Festival will be on April 5, but not all years are like this, to look at the calendar. To put it simply, the date of Qingming Festival is determined according to the season, so the date of Qingming Festival is always not fixed.

China and South Korea are geographically close and culturally passed down, South Korea is also cold and Qingming on the same day, and to sweep the tomb, it is customary to sweep the tomb 1 to 2 times a year, among which the Qingming and Mid-Autumn Festival sweep the tomb is the most.

Glaciers contain organic matter and minerals, experts have found that the substances in the glacier are the reason for the glacier's green color through spectroscopy and isotope measurement, and the various parts of the glacier contain different degrees of organic matter and minerals, there are no bubbles at the bottom of the glacier, so the density is small, sometimes it is knocked over, and the upper and lower parts almost absorb the strongest reflected blue light, so only green remains.
