Is it necessary to visit the graves on the Cold Clothes Festival?

You can visit the graves on the Cold Clothes Festival, but it is not necessary to do so.
Counting the days for visiting graves in a year, they are Qingming Festival, the first day of the tenth lunar month, the last day of the twelfth lunar month, and the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
For Chinese people who believe in "resting in peace", the grave is the resting place of the deceased and also a place for future generations to pay tribute to them.
Visiting the graves on the 30th day of the twelfth lunar month and the 15th day of the first lunar month is to invite the old mother of the land (i.e. the ancestors) to come home and celebrate the New Year and other festivals happily.
People visit graves on Qingming Festival and Cold Clothes Festival to remember their ancestors and express their thoughts. There is a saying about these two grave-visiting days: "new grave" and "old grave".
Just talking about visiting graves on the Cold Clothes Festival, old graves are visited on the first day of October, and new graves (that is, graves of relatives who died within three years ago) are visited the day before.
People in Laohuang County are accustomed to visiting graves on the first day of October as "visiting the graves on the first day of October".

Sacrificial Rituals

1. Place food, bowls, chopsticks, wine glasses, tea and other offerings on the graves of ancestors, and then light three incense sticks in front of the graves.
2. Pour the first glass of wine after lighting the incense. After about 30 minutes or half of the incense is burned, one person will light three incense sticks for the second time and pour the second glass of wine.
3. When the incense is half burned, place offerings to the land god who looks after the grave, and then burn a piece of yellow paper to protect the ancestors from harm.
4. When the three incense sticks have burned out, remove the offerings and leave a small amount of money and other belongings to be burned on other graves to prevent other ghosts from stealing money and clothes from the ancestral graves after the people who visited the graves leave.
Precautions
1. Do not laugh, play, run around or bump into anything around a cemetery. Doing so is not only impolite, but also disrespectful to the ancestors.
Second, it is not advisable to wear bright red or bright green clothes, and pregnant women, the sick, and children under 7 years old should not go to sweep the graves.
3. What is usually said during the sacrifice: what you plan to do at the grave, why you do it, and the hope that the ancestors will bless you, and everything will go smoothly and peacefully.
