The origin of the Dragon Boat Festival, also known as the Qiyuan Festival in English, can be traced back to ancient China. Here is a brief overview of its origins in English:

The Dragon Boat Festival has its roots in the 5th century BC, during the Warring States period. It is primarily celebrated in honor of Qu Yuan, a loyal minister of the state of Chu. Qu Yuan was exiled for his attempts to reform the state and eventually drowned himself in the Miluo River, expressing his despair and loyalty to his nation.
According to the legend, the people of Chu paddled out onto the river in their dragon boats to search for Qu Yuan's body. They threw rice dumplings into the water to prevent fish from eating his body. The festival also has connections to the Chinese zodiac, as it falls on the 5th day of the 5th lunar month.
Over time, the Dragon Boat Festival has evolved into a time for various cultural activities, including dragon boat races, eating zongzi (sticky rice dumplings), hanging calamus leaves, and offering incense to honor the departed souls. It is believed that these practices protect against evil spirits and bring good luck.
