Prepare offerings for grave-visiting: meals
It is best to eat what the ancestors liked to eat when they were alive. Many people will tell their children about their ancestors’ deeds when they were alive while paying homage to their ancestors, so that the next generation will not forget their ancestors.
Prepare offerings for graves: flowers
Chrysanthemums represent thoughts and remembrance. Chrysanthemums are usually suitable for visiting graves during the Qingming Festival, and white chrysanthemums are especially suitable for the scene.
Preparation of offerings for grave visits: incense and candles
Incense and candles are the most important and necessary items for tomb sweeping during the Qingming Festival. Not only should incense and candles be lit in front of the ancestors, but incense should also be offered to the mountain gods and land gods who look after the cemetery, praying that the mountain gods and land gods will protect the cemetery and bless the souls of the ancestors.
Prepare offerings for graves: paper money
Paper money is to be burned for the deceased so that they will have money to spend in the underworld, so it must be burned cleanly.
Offerings for grave-visiting: vegetarian wine
The process of tomb sweeping is equivalent to bringing food to celebrate the festival for the ancestors, so wine must be offered to the ancestors. Wine is a must for tomb sweeping.
Offerings for grave-visiting: Fruits and snacks
As for fruits, it is best to use seasonal fruits from different places, and there is no special requirement; snacks can be chosen according to the specific situation.
Preparing offerings for grave-visiting: "Bags"
"Bag" refers to the food, clothing and daily necessities that the tomb-sweepers (the deceased's family members) bring to the deceased. It gets its name because it is a large bag made of white paper, filled with paper money, gold and silver, as well as various paper "ingots", "clothes", "furniture" and so on.
"Burning bundles" is an important form of commemorating the deceased. Burning the "bundles" means sending these items to the ancestors.
