Nanjing displays heroes on posters above city gates for Qingming

As the Tomb Sweeping Festival, or Qingming, is on Friday, Nanjing, in East China’s Jiangsu province, is displaying large posters on three of its city gates to commemorate the heroes who sacrificed their lives to liberate the country during wartime or helped others in peacetime.

The heroes include young soldiers who died for the country’s liberation, police who died in the line of duty and teachers who died after years of hard work.
