Can I sweep graves during the Cold Food Festival?

Can I sweep graves during the Cold Food Festival? Some places can sweep graves, others can't. For example, in Hubei, Hunan and other places in ancient Chu, it is not allowed to go to the grave to sweep the grave on the Cold Food Festival, but the principle of China can go to the grave to sacrifice on the Cold Food Festival.

These places can only be "hung green" (also called hung green) during their stay in Tomb-Sweeping Day. On the day of Cold Food Festival, it is forbidden to visit graves. In addition to the Cold Food Festival, it is possible to go to the grave on other days.

However, this custom is common in some areas, but there is no such saying in some areas. A few days ago, there was no saying in some areas that graves could not be swept during the Cold Food Festival. On the contrary, on the Cold Food Festival, most people in their hometown go to sweep graves.

It seems that different regions have different folk customs. That is to say, although there is only one day difference between the Cold Food Festival and Tomb-Sweeping Day, in some places in our country, you can't sweep graves on that day, and in some places, Tomb-Sweeping Day doesn't have to.

However, during the Cold Food Festival, with the continuous development and progress of society, it is not allowed to make a fire in spring, and even the family can't make a fire to cook and eat hot food. This custom is increasingly incompatible with social development, and it is understandable that this custom disappears in the long river of history and does not conform to the laws of social development.
