The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as Duanwu Festival, is a traditional Chinese holiday celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. It has a long history, dating back to the Warring States period (475-221 BC). The festival is primarily commemorated in memory of Qu Yuan, a loyal minister who drowned himself in the Miluo River after being betrayed by his king.

One of the most distinctive customs of the Dragon Boat Festival is dragon boat racing. Teams of rowers compete in long boats shaped like dragons, while drummers and flag bearers encourage them. This event symbolizes the people's efforts to save Qu Yuan by searching for him in the river.
Another important tradition is eating zongzi, sticky rice dumplings wrapped in bamboo leaves. Zongzi come in various shapes and fillings, symbolizing the wish for happiness and prosperity. People also hang calamus leaves and mugwort around their homes to ward off evil spirits.
On this day, people also wear a medicinal herb called artemisia to prevent diseases. It is believed that the scent of artemisia can drive away harmful germs and protect the body from illness.
The Dragon Boat Festival is a time for families to gather, honor their ancestors, and participate in various cultural activities. It is a celebration of unity, respect for history, and the pursuit of health and happiness.
