Origin of Dragon Boat Festival:
Dragon Boat Festival is one of the important traditional festivals in China, and it is also the intangible cultural heritage of the world. It originated from an ancient legend in China, and was designated as a festival on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month every year.
It is said that in 278 BC, Qu Yuan, a patriotic poet in China during the Warring States Period, was ostracized and persecuted by the regime at that time because of his loyalty to the country and his concern for the sufferings of the people. Finally, on the fifth day of May, Qu Yuan chose to jump into the Miluo River and ended his life.
The local fishermen were very sad when they learned about it. They rowed dragon boats to look for Qu Yuan's body, and threw rice dumplings and fish soup to prevent fish from eating Qu Yuan's body. In addition, some people beat gongs and drums and sprinkle wine to water the land, hoping to drive away evil spirits and diseases through these ceremonies.
Gradually, Qu Yuan's story and these ceremonies merged and evolved into the present Dragon Boat Festival. Dragon Boat Festival not only commemorates Qu Yuan, but also becomes a traditional festival to celebrate the arrival of summer and defend against plagues and diseases. On the Dragon Boat Festival, people will make zongzi, which is a traditional food wrapped with glutinous rice and various fillings. Zongzi is usually wrapped in bamboo leaves or cattail leaves and cooked. Zongzi in different places have different tastes, including salty, sweet and even other innovative tastes.
In addition, there is a dragon boat race on the Dragon Boat Festival, which is a tradition to simulate fishermen rowing dragon boats to find Qu Yuan's body. Dragon boats are usually rowed by a team, commanded by a navigator and beat by a drummer. Dragon boat race is not only competitive, but also shows the ancient boat culture and teamwork spirit in China.
