Dragon Boat Festival is a lunar festival.
Dragon Boat Festival, also known as Dragon Boat Festival, is one of the biggest traditional festivals in China. "Duan" means the same as "Chu", and calling "Duan Wu" is the same as calling "the fifth day"; The word "five" in the Dragon Boat Festival is also connected with "noon". According to the order of earthly branches, May is the "noon" month. Because noon is the "sun" and the Dragon Boat Festival is also called "Duanyang". On May 5th, both the month and the day are five, so calling five is also called noon.
The Dragon Boat Festival has always been a folk festival for multi-ethnic people to keep fit and pray for health. The basic activities of this day gradually evolved into eating zongzi, dragon boat racing, hanging calamus, wormwood, mugwort leaves, smoked Atractylodes macrocephala and angelica dahurica, and drinking realgar wine. It is said that eating zongzi and dragon boat racing is to commemorate Qu Yuan.
