The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as Duanwu Festival, is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month in China. It is a traditional Chinese festival that involves several customs, including eating Zongzi (glutinous rice dumplings), drinking realgar wine, hanging sachets, and participating in dragon boat races. These customs are not only a way to commemorate the death of Qu Yuan, an upright and honest poet and statesman who committed suicide by drowning himself in a river, but also symbolize the virtues of cooperation and teamwork。
Zongzi are made of glutinous rice stuffed with different fillings and wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves. People mourned Qu Yuan's death by throwing Zongzi into the river to feed his ghost every year。
Dragon boat races are an important activity during the festival. They symbolize people's attempts to rescue Qu Yuan and demonstrate the virtues of cooperation and teamwork。
In addition to these activities, people also wear sachets containing herbs like wormwood leaves to ward off evil spirits and bring health and well-being。
The festival is a time of celebration and reflection on Chinese culture, with family members gathering to share in the traditions and stories of the past。
