Legend of Dragon Boat Festival

Legend has it that the Dragon Boat Festival is to commemorate Qu Yuan, a great poet in the Warring States Period. Qu Yuan, a native of Chu State, was born in 340 BC. He is not only a poet, but also a thinker and politician. He lived in an era when the once powerful State of Chu began to decline and perish. He loves his motherland and people. He was far-sighted in politics and advocated innovation, hoping that Chu could be strong again. However, his progressive thought has never been supported by the King of Chu and other nobles.

In 278 BC, the capital of Chu was conquered by Qin, and he felt extremely painful. On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, he threw himself into the Miluo River (in today's Hunan Province) and died. People have been sympathetic to Qu Yuan for more than two thousand years since his death. Every Dragon Boat Festival, dragon boats are rowed all over the country to commemorate him. Dragon boat rowing symbolizes the scene of the Chu people salvaging his body.

On this day, zongzi is eaten all over the country. Eating zongzi is also a tribute to him. It is said that people in the ancient state of Chu sacrificed to him on this day every year, and put rice in bamboo tubes and put it into the river for him to enjoy. Others say that throwing these things into the river is to feed the dragon, so that the dragon can eat it and stop eating Qu Yuan's body. This is the source of eating zongzi for later generations.
