While on holiday, take the time to visit the dead

Wanting to visit a cemetery as a touristic pursuit may seem strange to most people, especially the superstitious Chinese, but I was still keen to check it out, even though the Chinese New Year was imminent.

After all, I don’t practice feng shui nor am I a Taoist, so neither convention nor tradition held me back.
