English composition on the customs of Dragon Boat Festival

Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional festival in China. We hold this festival in memory of the great poet Qu Yuan. He was a loyal minister of Chu, and after the country was destroyed by the enemy, he ended his life by the Miluo River.

On the Dragon Boat Festival, we eat Zongzi, a special jiaozi made of rice with some sweet stuffing. In many provinces, there will be boat races, and many people will put Amy on the door to exorcise evil spirits and bless peace. Many children will wear a special bracelet, which is made of five colors of cotton thread. People believe it can help children become healthier.
