چينگمينگ Qingming أو مهرجان چينگ مينگ Ching Ming Festival، ويُعرف أيضاً بإسم يوم كنس المقابر بالعربية،[1][2] is a traditional Chinese festival on the first day of the fifth solar term of the traditional Chinese lunisolar calendar. This makes it the 15th day after the Spring Equinox, either 4 or 5 April in a given year.[3][4] Other common translations include Chinese Memorial Day and Ancestors' Day.
Qingming has been regularly observed as a statutory public holiday in China. In Taiwan, the public holiday is now always observed on 5 April to honor the death of Chiang Kai-shek on that day in 1975. It became a public holiday in mainland China in 2008.
In the mainland, the holiday is associated with the consumption of qingtuan, green dumplings made of glutinous rice and barley grass. In Taiwan, the similar confection is known as caozaiguo or shuchuguo.
A similar holiday is observed in the Ryukyu Islands, called Shīmī in the local language.

في الأدب
Qingming was frequently mentioned in Chinese literature. Among these, the most famous one is probably Du Mu's poem (simply titled "Qingming"):

Although the date is not presently a holiday in Vietnam, the Qingming festival is mentioned (under the name Thanh Minh) in the epic poem The Tale of Kieu, when the protagonist Kieu meets a ghost of a dead old lady. The description of the scenery during this festival is one of the best-known passages of Vietnamese literature:
Hán Nôm | Vietnamese | English translation |
---|---|---|
𣈜春𡥵燕迻梭, | Ngày xuân con én đưa thoi | Swift swallows and spring days were shuttling by; |
韶光𠃩𨔿㐌外𦒹𨑮。 | Thiều quang chín chục đã ngoài sáu mươi | Of ninety radiant ones three score had fled. |
𦹵𡽫撑羡蹎𡗶, | Cỏ non-xanh tận chân trời | Young grass spread all its green to heaven's rim; |
梗梨𤽸點沒𢽼花, | Cành lê trắng điểm một vài bông hoa | Some blossoms marked pear branches with white dots. |
清明𥪞節𣎃𠀧, | Thanh Minh trong tiết tháng ba | Now came the Feast of Light in the third month |
礼羅掃墓,噲羅踏清。 | Lễ là Tảo mộ, hội là Đạp thanh | With graveyard rites and junkets on the green. |
𧵆賒奴㘃燕, | Gần xa nô nức yến oanh | As merry pilgrims flocked from near and far, |
姉㛪懺所步行制春。 | Chị em sắm sửa bộ hành chơi xuân | The sisters and their brother went for a stroll. |
