o Dragon Boat Festival
Dragon Boat Festival, also called Duan Wu or Tuen Ng Festival (端午节/端午節), is a traditional East Asian festival held on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar.
Tradition holds that the festival memorializes the Chinese poet Qu Yuan of the Warring States Period. He commited suicide by drowning himself in a river because he was disgusted by the corruption of the Chu government. The local people, knowing him to be a good man, decided to throw food into the river to feed the fishes to prevent them from eating Qu’s body. They also sat on dragon boats, and tried to scare the fishes away by the thundering sound of drums aboard the boat and the fierce looking dragon-head in the front of the boat.
Today, people eat zongzi (the food orginally intended to feed the fishes) and race dragon boats in memory of Qu’s dramatic death.
