Tomb-Sweeping Festival ancestor money and god Joss paper
Joss Paper money has a kind of magic that can transcend cultural and regional boundaries and become a universal product worldwide.

This mysterious power from the East not only helped foreigners' attitudes towards ancestor worship, but also indirectly promoted a new cultural exchange.

Joss money, a paper product used by the Chinese people to worship the dead since ancient times, was originally only circulated in the Chinese community, but now it has aroused a wave of enthusiasm around the world.

People use ghost money made of simple yellow or white paper to worship the dead, believing that this can convey their thoughts to the underworld.

Patterns such as houses, carriages, servants, and increasingly higher denominations began to appear on ghost money, which not only reflected people's expectations for a wealthy life in the afterlife, but also reflected the values ​​of the society at that time.

Ghost money culture, a traditional custom deeply rooted in Chinese society, has now crossed cultural and regional boundaries and become a global phenomenon.
