Spring Outings
踏青
Not only is it a period for commemorating the dead, it is also time for people to go out and enjoy nature.
清明不仅纪念逝者的时候,也是人们外出踏青的好时节。
As trees turn green, flowers blossom, and the sun shines brightly, everything returns to life. It is a fine time to appreciate the beauty of nature. This custom can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period (770 – 476BC) and Warring States Period (475 – 221BC).
此时,万木复苏,百花齐放,风和日丽,春回大地,正是欣赏自然风光的大好时节。这一风俗可以追朔到春秋战国时期。
Strolling outside in spring adds joy to life and promotes a healthy body and mind.
踏青可为生活增添乐趣,也有益于身心健康。 |
