In which area is it a custom to wear poison clothes during the Dragon Boat Festival?

The custom of wearing poisonous clothes exists in many places, but it is mainly concentrated in Jiangnan area. The Dragon Boat Festival is a very important traditional festival in our country. Everyone knows the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival, just to commemorate our poet Qu Yuan. From this, many customs have been derived, from making zongzi and racing dragon boats at the beginning, to clothes and shoes with five poisons later, and some places still need to worship temple fairs with five poisons.

In fact, these five poisons are snakes, scorpions, toads, centipedes and geckos. The unique function of the window comes from the Dragon Boat Festival around May. In May, when the weather gets hot, many bacteria are easy to multiply, and then these poisonous insects will start to haunt. People are very easy to be bitten by these poisons, so the Dragon Boat Festival is still a festival to drive away the poisons in people's hearts. Therefore, people have the custom of wearing five poison suits, in order to avoid being bitten by poisonous insects and causing physical harm.

Because it was troublesome to treat people bitten by this poisonous insect at that time, and the efficiency was relatively low, people were afraid of this poisonous insect at that time, and wearing clothes with five poisons was also a manifestation of the people's anti-drug struggle at that time. Some people will say why they don't wear clothes embroidered with rooster patterns, because roosters are the natural enemies of these poisons, and what the people want is to conquer them with poison. The so-called fight poison with poison, drive away poisonous insects. Generally, the clothes with five poisons are like to be worn by the baby, because at this time, the baby is the most vulnerable to the bite of poisonous insects and the person with the worst resistance, so the baby wears more clothes with five poisons.

And besides the people themselves, they will wear five poison clothes. Taoism and Buddhism also sent amulets to drive away poisonous insects to the people, so Taoism and Buddhism were also very concerned about and closely related to the Lebanese people at that time.
