上海冬至祭扫人数同比减少百分之26 市民通过网络预约当日祭扫 2020-12-23
About 900,000 visits were recorded at Shanghai's 54 cemeteries and columbariums between Saturday and Monday, the three-day dongzhi peak for tomb visits, a drop of 26 percent from the same period last year under a reservation system, local civil affairs authorities said.
The Winter Solstice, like the Qingming Festival, is a time for Chinese people to pay respects to their ancestors. This year, it falls on Monday.
Since December 1, around 1.53 million visits were made by tomb-sweepers, according to the Shanghai Civil Affairs Bureau.
