Dragon Boat Festival Holiday

The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as the Dragon Boat Festival, is one of the important traditional festivals in China. It is held on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar, so it is also called "Dragon Boat Festival". The Dragon Boat Festival has a long history and rich and colorful cultural connotations, and is one of the unique festivals of the Chinese nation. This article will introduce you to the origins, customs and traditional foods of the Dragon Boat Festival, as well as its significance in modern society.

The origin of the Dragon Boat Festival can be traced back to the Warring States Period more than 2,000 years ago. According to legend, Qu Yuan, a great poet in the Spring and Autumn Period, is one of the cultural celebrities in Chinese history. Qu Yuan was loyal to the country, but suffered from the political struggle and conspiracy at that time, and was exiled to the Yueyang Chu State by the river. Qu Yuan's worry and pain for the country made him feel extremely desperate, and finally chose to commit suicide by throwing himself into the river on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month.

After hearing the news, the local people rowed out to search for Qu Yuan's body, hoping to protect his body from being bitten by fish and shrimp. In order to prevent fish and shrimp from approaching, people hit the river with oars to make sound and waves, and at the same time, they also put rice, eggs and other food for fish and shrimp to enjoy. These practices later gradually evolved into traditional customs of the Dragon Boat Festival such as dragon boat racing and eating rice dumplings.
