Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional custom in China for more than two thousand years. Why do people in China celebrate the Spring Festival? There are many legends here, the most famous of which is to commemorate Qu Yuan, a great patriotic poet in China history.

It is said that the ancient people in China could not bear the death of the sage Qu Yuan, so many people rowed after the rescue. They compete to catch up with each other until they reach Dongting Lake, and then they row a dragon boat to commemorate it on May 5th every year. Rowing a dragon boat to disperse the fish in the river so as not to eat Qu Yuan's body.

On the Dragon Boat Festival, my family will go to grandma's house to eat zongzi. The shapes of zongzi are triangle, quadrilateral, small pagoda, round stick and so on. There are many kinds of jiaozi, including red bean paste, dried vegetables, celery meat and red dates, which are very delicious. I can't wait to take one, untie the rope outside first, and then peel off the leaves, ah! It smells good. I want to eat a second one after eating one, but my stomach can't hold up.

I like watching dragon boat races best. Dozens of sailors are holding paddles in coordination, and Qi Xin is also struggling to paddle forward together. The sailors who beat the drums have high morale and beat the drums hard. "Come on, come on!" "The cheerleaders outside the stadium made thunderous shouts and cheers, which made the sailors more energetic and brave ... Every year, the dragon boat race was spectacular.

Eating zongzi and racing dragon boats on the Dragon Boat Festival is not only the traditional custom of the Chinese nation, but also the inheritance of China traditional culture. Ah! Dragon Boat Festival is really good. I really want it every day.
