The Farmers’ Harvest Festival, the cultural symbol, helps to show China’s long farming culture to the world.

The festival is especially created for farmers, so they are encouraged to think of their own ways to celebrate it. During the festival, many different kinds of activities are held across the country, such as folk culture performances, food tasting and so on.
Some people think the festival is the happiest time of a year, even better than the Spring Festival, because food gives people a sense of safety and hope. For other people, the harvest festival is a time to look back at the past and look forward to the future.

Every year in early April, people in China visit the tombs (墓地) of their parents, grandparents and ancestors. It is Tomb-Sweeping Day, a traditional Chinese holiday to remember the dead. On this day, Chinese families will sweep their relatives’ tombs and clean the ground around them. Then, they will burn paper money and put flowers and fruit in front of the tombs. They hope the dead can enjoy these items and bring the family good luck.
However, it is not only the Chinese who remember the dead. People in other countries also have holidays to honor their ancestors.
In Japan, Obon is one of the country’s most important holidays. It is held from August 13 to 16. It also serves as a time for family reunions. During Obon, Japanese people return to their hometowns and visit their ancestors’ tombs. In Russia, people remember their ancestors on the Day of Rejoicing. It usually falls in late April or early May. The name of this holiday refers to birth and happiness. Russians believe that people don’t have to feel sad for the dead because death means rebirth in another world.
