The day is a traditional Chinese festival on either 4 or 5 April in a given year. The festival originated from the Cold Food Festival ("Hanshi Festival"), established by Chong'er, Duke Wen of Jin, during the Spring and Autumn period. The festival was a memorial for his retainer Jie Zitui, who had loyally followed him during his years of exile.
清明節在英文又被稱作掃墓節,是中國傳統節日中在農曆四月的第四或第五天。這個節日緣起於寒食節,是由春秋時期晉文公重耳推動的節日。這個節日是在紀念他的恩人介之推。有一次重耳餓昏,介之推割下自己大腿肉烤熟給他吃,重耳得以保住性命。

It was better to do the tomb cleaning around 5 to 7 in the morning in ancient time. The Qingming or Ching Ming Festival, also known as Tomb Sweeping Day, is not only is it a day for commemorating the dead, it is also a time for people times. However, people don’t do it so early, they should do it before 3:00 in the afternoon because there may become more and more gloomy in the mountain, and it is bad for someone who is unlucky.
最好是 5 7 點,不是需要根據自己情況。即寅時。當然,現在通常不會那麼早,但是最好在下午三點前完成清明拜山活動,因為陽氣已逐漸消退,陰氣逐漸增長,若是時運低的人,很容易會招惹陰靈纏身或騷擾。
