Qingming Festival Customs: Swinging

Swinging is one of the customs of Qingming Festival in ancient China. Wang Renyu of the Five Dynasties wrote in "The Remaining Stories of Kaiyuan and Tianbao" that "During the Cold Food Festival, a swing was erected in the Tianbao Palace for the concubines to play and have fun. The emperor called it the play of the half-immortals, and the people in the capital called it that as well." Wen Yanbo, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, wrote in his poem "Passing by Dragon Gate on the Cold Food Day" that "beside the bridge, willow trees hang down green threads, and there are many swings with colorful ropes." A swing means moving by pulling on a leather rope.
Swinging has a very old history. It was originally called Qianqiu, but later it was changed to swing to avoid taboos. In ancient times, swings were mostly made of tree branches as frames, tied with colorful ribbons.
Later it gradually developed into a swing with two ropes and pedals. Swinging can not only improve health, but also cultivate courage. It is still loved by people, especially children.
