The Custom Implication of Dragon Boat Festival
Commemorate Qu Yuan, inherit culture and eat zongzi.

1, in memory of Qu Yuan: The origin of the Dragon Boat Festival can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period three thousand years ago. According to Chu Ci, the famous patriotic poet of Chu at that time was exiled because he was worried about the country and the people and regretted the corruption and morality of the king of Chu. Finally, Qu Yuan chose to throw himself into the river to show his concern for the country and people. To commemorate Qu Yuan's contribution and heroic spirit, people hang calamus and wormwood, eat zongzi and race dragon boats on the Dragon Boat Festival.

2. Inheriting culture: Dragon Boat Festival is one of the ancient traditional festivals in China, with a long history and profound cultural heritage. On the Dragon Boat Festival, China people will carry out a series of traditional customs and activities, such as eating zongzi, racing dragon boats, wearing sachets and hanging mugwort leaves. These activities not only represent the cultural tradition of the Chinese nation, but also show patriotism, national unity and cultural self-confidence.
