The fifth day of the fifth lunar month is the most distinctive day in my hometown - the Dragon Boat Festival. Although the Dragon Boat Festival is a very popular and grand festival among the Chinese people, it is celebrated both in southern and northern China. Customs of the Dragon Boat Festival. But I feel that the Dragon Boat Festival in the south is more interesting, richer in atmosphere, and better able to express the characteristics of the Dragon Boat Festival than in the north.

The Dragon Boat Festival is a festival designated to commemorate the great poet Qu Yuan. Every Dragon Boat Festival, every household will make a kind of "Zhongshan Ludou Zong": a round rod-shaped one as thick as an arm, bound with fresh bamboo leaves, with ingredients inside, including salty rice dumplings and sweet rice dumplings. There are various flavors. Sweet rice dumplings include lotus paste, bean paste, chestnut paste, date paste; salty ones are bacon, roast chicken, egg yolk, scallops, mushrooms, mung beans, barbecued pork and other ingredients. The wrapped rice dumplings are cooked in a pot. , when the rice dumplings are cooked, you will smell the faint fragrance of bamboo leaves, and the fragrance is overflowing, permeating the whole kitchen...

Untie the vines, peel off the rice dumpling leaves, and put in the sweet rice dumplings. There is red meat hidden in the rice dumplings, and the white rice meat in the salty rice dumplings is steaming up, exuding a unique steamed brown aroma. The two rice dumplings are placed together on a plate, with two shiny red and white gems on the piston, and the glutinous rice is reflected in the light The bottom is crystal clear and exudes a tantalizing and rich glutinous rice aroma, which is really helpful! What I love most about sweets is the maroon-like sweet rice dumplings. During the Dragon Boat Festival, my family makes a lot of rice dumplings and always gives them away. Relatives and friends gave us a big bag, a big bag. Others also used their own rice dumplings to give to us as thanks. Therefore, on the Dragon Boat Festival, my family always has endless rice dumplings brought from my aunt and grandma’s house. < /p>

Staying in Shixi for a long time, I thought about the Dragon Boat Festival. I watched the engine in front of the post building. The thunder was trembling, and the snow was slightly falling on the beast's head. People rushed to break through the protrusions, and the birds jumped over the waves to fly back towards the road. Long Gang didn't believe it, and he really won the championship. This is the "Poetry of Racing" written by Lu Zhao of the Tang Dynasty, which highlights the macro scene of the dragon boat race. However, in my hometown of Guangzhou, there is also the custom of dragon boat racing, commonly known as "Dragon Boat Racing". "Dragon Boat". On the day of the Dragon Boat Festival, the village will organize a small "Dragon Boat" competition. Strong men from every household must participate, while women stand aside and can only watch. There are five or six narrow and long boats. There was a big dragon head in the boat. More than a dozen people sat together and paddled hard, trying to reach the finish line first. Although it was raining like needles, everyone on the boat was soaked to the skin. I don't know if it's sweat or rain, but it doesn't matter. At this critical moment, winning the game is important... The men who finish rowing the dragon boat will gather in the village's big ancestral hall for a meal at noon. A sumptuous "Dragon Boat Rice" meal, but the women in our village are not allowed to participate, so I don't know what the dishes are because I am a girl.

The "dragon boat" in the village is too childish! Not satisfying at all for me. If you want to watch it, it will be live on TV, an authentic dragon boat race. On the vast river, more than 20 "traditional dragons" participated in the competition. The long dragon boat was filled with big muscular men. In the middle is the drummer, and the people in the front are shouting and cheering, with a powerful and domineering voice. Majestic, shocking... The drizzle is falling, and the river is gushing. Here, the man shows his bravery and strength, which is amazing! In the north, the custom of "dragon boat racing" is not common, because there are not as many rivers in the north as in the south, so only rice dumplings are eaten during the Dragon Boat Festival in the north, which is not as vigorous and lively as in the south. This is the uniqueness of the Dragon Boat Festival in my hometown.

Dragon Boat Festival in my hometown, how much joy and joy you gave me! The Dragon Boat Festival rice dumplings are fragrant, the dragon boats are clanging, good things come in pairs! The Dragon Boat Festival expresses authentic hometown feelings, an ancient tradition, and an admiration and praise for the patriotic spirit of the poet Qu Yuan. Eating authentic hometown rice dumplings and watching the wonderful hometown dragon boat race gave me a special feeling.

In 2010, another new Dragon Boat Festival is coming, and I greet you with longing, expectation and excitement.
