The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as Duanwu Festival, is a traditional Chinese holiday celebrated on the 5th day of the 5th lunar month. It has a rich history and various legends associated with it.

One of the most famous legends about the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival is about Qu Yuan, a loyal minister of the state of Chu during the Warring States period. Qu Yuan was known for his patriotism and integrity. However, he was betrayed and exiled by his rivals. In despair, Qu Yuan drowned himself in the Miluo River on the 5th day of the 5th lunar month. The local people were saddened by his death and wanted to honor his memory, so they raced dragon boats and threw rice dumplings into the river to feed the fish, hoping to keep them from eating Qu Yuan's body.
Another legend is about the Empress Mother, who was said to have saved her son from a dragon. To protect him from further harm, she made a dragon boat and raced it across the river. Since then, dragon boat races have become an essential part of the festival.
The Dragon Boat Festival is also associated with the worship of the dragon, as the dragon is considered a symbol of power and prosperity in Chinese culture. People often wear red, which is considered a lucky color, and eat zongzi, a sticky rice dumpling wrapped in bamboo leaves, which is believed to bring good luck and health.
In summary, the Dragon Boat Festival is a time for honoring the memory of Qu Yuan, celebrating the dragon, and enjoying the traditional foods and activities associated with the holiday.
