A ceremony is held in front of a giant bronze statue of Mencius' mother during an event to promote care for mothers and filial piety in Taigu county, North China’s Shanxi province, May 17, 2015. Several organizations have been calling for China to establish its own Mother’s Day since 2004 and have suggested the birthday of Chinese philosopher Mencius as the day. Legend says that Mencius' mother moved their house three times before finding the perfect location to raise her son. (Photo: China News Service/Wei Liang)
