Dragon Boat Festival is the fifth day of May in the lunar calendar every year. According to the records of Jingchu Sui Ji, the first noon day of climbing high in mid-summer, Shunyang in Shangyang, and May in mid-summer is the day of fine weather in Shunyang, so the fifth day of May is also called "Duanyang Festival". In addition, the Dragon Boat Festival is also called "Midday Festival, May Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Bath Orchid Festival" and so on. Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional cultural festival popular in China and other countries in the Chinese character cultural circle. Dragon Boat Festival originated in China. It was originally a totem festival for the tribes worshipping dragon totem in Baiyue area (the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the southern part of the Yangtze River). Before the Spring and Autumn Period in Baiyue area, there was a custom of holding tribal totem sacrifice in the form of dragon boat race on the fifth day of May in the lunar calendar. Later, because the poet Quyuan of the State of Chu (now Hubei) in the Warring States Period committed suicide in the Miluo River on that day, the rulers used the Dragon Boat Festival as a festival to commemorate Quyuan in order to establish the label of loyalty and patriotism; in some areas, there were also statements to commemorate Wu Zixu and Cao E. The Dragon Boat Festival and the Spring Festival, the Qingming Festival and the Mid-Autumn Festival are also known as the four traditional festivals of the Han nationality in China.

 

 

 

Since ancient times, Dragon Boat Festival has included dragon boat rowing and rice dumplings and other festival activities. Since 2008, the Dragon Boat Festival has been listed as a national statutory holiday. In May 2006, the State Council listed it as the first national intangible cultural heritage list; in September 2009, UNESCO formally considered and approved the inclusion of the Dragon Boat Festival in the world intangible cultural heritage, becoming China's first non-heritage festival.
