IT'S A HOLIDAY IN CHINA

This is TOMB SWEEPING DAY in China.  A special day, much like our Memorial Day.

For the Chinese, Tomb Sweeping day comes on the 15th day after the Spring Equinox and they've been celebrating this remembrance of the dead for more than 2,500 years when it began with Tang Emperor Xuanzong in 732.
