QING MING 2012 - NIRVANA SEMENYIH (OLD & NEW HILLS)

It is Qing Ming festival again for the Chinese, a time to pay homage to our ancestors' graves.  Young and old will take this opportunity to pray before their ancestors, sweep and clean the tombs and not forgetting offerings of food, libations, joss paper offerings to the ancestors. This rites have a long tradition and remain a revered event which is keenly observed by all Chinese till today. It is a common practice of Filial Piety.
