Paper sacrificial offerings for Qingming Festival are becoming more diversified year by year. In a shop in Zhifang township, Henan province, customers were surrounded by a variety of paper-made products including vehicles, phones, electric appliances and other articles for daily use.
It is an old tradition for Chinese people to sweep graves and pay respects to late family members and ancestors during Qingming. Paper offerings burned are believed to be sent to the beloved ones in heaven.
