The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as Duanwu Festival, is a traditional Chinese holiday celebrated on the 5th day of the 5th lunar month. Its origins can be traced back to the 3rd century BC, during the Warring States period.

The English origin of the Dragon Boat Festival can be described as follows:
The festival is primarily commemorated in memory of Qu Yuan, a famous poet and statesman from the state of Chu during the Warring States period. Qu Yuan was known for his patriotism and his efforts to reform the state. However, he was exiled and eventually drowned himself in the Miluo River after being betrayed and witnessing the fall of his state.
According to legend, the people of Chu paddled out in their dragon boats to save Qu Yuan by searching for his body in the river. They threw rice dumplings into the water to prevent fish from eating his body. The practice of dragon boat racing and eating zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) originated from these events.
In English, the Dragon Boat Festival can be referred to as:
1. Dragon Boat Festival
2. Duanwu Festival
3. Dragon Boat Race Festival
4. Qu Yuan Festival
The festival is celebrated in various ways across China and in Chinese communities worldwide, including dragon boat races, zongzi-making, and various traditional performances. It is a time for families to gather, honor their ancestors, and remember the heroic deeds of Qu Yuan.
