Dragon Boat Festival is one of the traditional festivals in China, which falls on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. According to legend, the Dragon Boat Festival began in the Spring and Autumn Period in China, and it is a festival to commemorate the ancient national hero Qu Yuan.

Qu Yuan was a minister and writer of Chu in the Warring States Period. He devoted himself to reforming the political and social system of Chu, but later he was banished to a remote place of Chu because of the exclusion and gossip of other officials. Knowing that foreign enemies had invaded Chu, Qu Yuan thought that his reform ideas had been forgotten, so he had to throw himself into the Miluo River to express his loyalty and love for the nation and the country.

Legend has it that after hearing the news of Qu Yuan's death, people rowed in search, took out zongzi, bait cakes and other foods and threw them into the river to appease the hungry ghosts. They not only remembered Qu Yuan, but also formed a series of traditional customs of the Dragon Boat Festival, such as holding boats for dragon boat races, eating zongzi, tying colorful lines, drinking realgar wine and hanging wormwood.

There are many ways to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, such as dragon boat racing, weaving colorful silk thread, drinking realgar wine, eating zongzi and hanging wormwood. Dragon Boat Festival is not only a festival, but also an important part of the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation, which is permeated with the spiritual characteristics of hard work, patriotism and feelings of home and country.
