what is Brightness Day

[ForwardRetreat]

I was looking at the holiday schedule at the Chinese Visa Service Centre's website. I notice they will be closed on April 7th 2014 because it is China's Brightness Day. What is that?

Brightness Day = 清明节。

因迄时万物皆显，气清景明，因而得名。清明节也是一个祭祀祖先的节日。

清明節今年應該在陽曆4月五日，因為是在星期六的關係所以假日便放在星期一，4月七日
