To celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival

The fifth day of the fifth lunar month is the Dragon Boat Festival, which has a long history. This is a festival in memory of Qu Yuan of Chu State. China people have a tradition of Dragon Boat Festival, that is, they will definitely eat zongzi, race dragon boats and eat realgar wine. People along the Miluo River will also throw zongzi into the river to feed the fish and insects in the Miluo River, so that these creatures will not eat Qu Yuan's body.

Mid-Autumn Festival

On August 15, when the moon is full, people will get together to eat moon cakes and enjoy the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival. If people live near Qiantang River, they may go to see the tide on this day. Every day, everyone will think of Su Shi's particularly famous poem "I wish people a long time and a thousand miles of beautiful scenery" to pin their thoughts on their families.
