“清明节是中国最重要的传统节日之一。它不仅是人们祭奠祖先、缅怀先人的节日，也是中华民族认祖归宗的纽带，更是一个远足踏青、亲近自然、催护新生的春季仪式。”

　　"Qingming Festival is one of the most important traditional festival China. It is not only the people pay homage to their ancestors, cherish the memory of their ancestors Festival, is also the Chinese nation's link to find one's origin, is a hiking outing, close to nature, protecting the new spring ceremony."

　　作为清明节重要节日内容的祭祀、踏青等习俗则主要来源于寒食节和上巳节。寒食节与古人对于自然的认识相关。在中国，寒食之后重生新火就是一种辞旧迎新的过渡仪式，透露的是季节交替的信息，象征着新季节、新希望、新生命、新循环的开始。后来则有了“感恩”意味，更强调对“过去”的怀念和感谢。寒食禁火冷食祭墓，清明取新火踏青出游。唐代之前，寒食与清明是两个前后相继但主题不同的节日，前者怀旧悼亡，后者求新护生;一阴一阳，一息一生，二者有着密切的配合关系。禁火是为了出火，祭亡是为了佑生，这就是寒食与清明的内在文化关联。唐玄宗时，朝廷曾以政令的形式将民间扫墓的风俗固定在清明节前的寒食节，由于寒食与清明在时间上紧密相连，寒食节俗很早就与清明发生关联，扫墓也由寒食顺延到了清明。
