Today marks China's #Qingming Festival, a time for honoring ancestors and embracing the vibrant energy of spring through outings.💐

During this festival, Chinese people savor Qingtuan, a seasonal delicacy with a shiny green exterior made from glutinous rice flour and freshly extracted green grass juice, shared among family and friends.🌿

Oscar Ortiz, an employee of Sinopec Ecuador, notes a local holiday akin to the China’s Qingming Festival, known as Día de los Difuntos (Day of the Deceased). Annually, on November 2nd, the locals celebrate with specialties like Colada Morada (the traditional thick drink made with fruits, spices, and purple corn flour) and Guagua de Pan (sweet breads shaped into doll like figures) to honor their late beloved ones.
