The lunar calendar is the Chinese Ghost Festival, also known as the Zhongyuan Festival, which is a festival related to ghosts and a festival to worship ghosts.

According to legend, every year from July 1st, the king of Hades ordered to open the gates of hell, so that those who suffer and suffer all year round and imprisoned in hell come out of hell, get a short-term wandering, and enjoy the blood and food of the world, so people call July the ghost month, this month is considered to be an inauspicious month, neither marrying nor moving.

In Buddhism, it is called "Yu Lan Festival", and it is said that on this day, the king of Yama will open the gate of hell "Onimon Seki", and let the imprisoned ghosts come out to roam freely until the end of July. Therefore, the reputation of the closed imitation folk is popular during this period of time to worship the relatives to summon the soul, burn the money ingots, paper candles, put river lanterns, and do things, in order to pray for the blessing of the ancestors, eliminate disasters and increase blessings, or exceed the soul, and resolve grievances.

Midyear Festival. The midyear festival is commonly known as the Ghost Festival, Shi Gu, and the seventh half of the month, and it is called the Obon Festival in Buddhism. Together with Chinese New Year's Eve, Qingming Festival and Chongyang Festival, the three festivals are traditional Chinese ancestor worship festivals, and they are also traditional cultural festivals popular in countries with Chinese character cultural circles. In the midyear festival, there is a custom of putting river lanterns and burning paper ingots.

The fifteenth day of the first month of the lunar calendar is called the Shangyuan Festival, which is the celebration of the Lantern Festival, which has existed in ancient times; July 15 is called the Midyear Festival, sacrificing to the ancestors; October 15 is called the Xia Yuan Festival, which is to eat cold food and commemorate the sages. The midyear festival falls on the 15th day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, and in some areas it is on the 14th day of the seventh month.

The mid-year festival was originally a small autumn, and a number of crops were ripe, and the people routinely worshiped their ancestors, and made offerings with new rice and other offerings, and reported the autumn to their ancestors. Therefore, every mid-year festival, every family worships their ancestors, and when they make offerings, they perform rituals. On July 15, go to the grave to sweep the grave and worship the ancestors.

Overseas Chinese and overseas Chinese will send batches of silver during the four festivals of Qingming, Zhongyuan, Winter Solstice and New Year, otherwise they will be regarded as disrespectful to their ancestors, unfilial to their elders, and irresponsible to their wives.

Legend has it that on the day of the Yuan Festival, all the ghosts will be released, and the people generally carry out ghost worship activities. Whenever there is a new funeral, for example, they have to go to the new grave, and generally in the local area to sacrifice lonely souls and wild ghosts, which has become one of the largest Chinese folk festivals.
