What festival is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month in China?
The fifth day of the fifth lunar month is the Dragon Boat Festival, a traditional festival in China. China, also known as "Duanyang Festival" and "Noon Festival", is one of the national legal holidays and has been included in the world intangible cultural heritage list.

Dragon Boat Festival, which originated in China, was originally a festival in which ancient ancestors offered sacrifices to their ancestors in the form of dragon boat races. It is said that Qu Yuan, a poet of Chu State in the Warring States Period, threw himself into the Miluo River during the Dragon Boat Festival. Later, people also took the Dragon Boat Festival as a festival to commemorate Qu Yuan.

Dragon Boat Festival, Spring Festival, Tomb-Sweeping Day and Mid-Autumn Festival are also called the four traditional folk festivals in China. Dragon Boat Festival culture has a wide influence in the world, and some countries and regions in the world also celebrate it.
