What does the Cold Clothes Festival mean?
The Cold Clothes Festival is held on the first day of the tenth lunar month, also known as "the Day of the Tenth Month", "the Ancestral Worship Festival", or "the Ghost Night". It is called the "Day of the Ghosts" by the public, a traditional Chinese festival for ancestral worship, and is said to have originated from the Zhou Dynasty. The Cold Clothes Festival is popular in the north, and many northerners will pay respects on this day to remember their deceased relatives, known as sending cold clothes. In the north, the Cold Clothes Festival is combined with the Qingming Festival in spring and the Zhongyuan Festival on the 15th day of the seventh lunar month to form the three major "Ghost Festivals" of China. At the same time, this day also marks the arrival of severe winter, so it is also the day to send warm clothes to parents, lovers, and others you care about.
