Qingming is a traditional festival that honors Chinese ancestors and martyrs. Countless young men and women have sacrificed their lives on the battlefield, defending what they believed in. They gave up their lives to ensure the happiness of future generations. This year marks the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and many across the country have volunteered to sweep the graves of national heroes.
