Dragon Boat Festival, also called Duanwu Festival, is celebrated on lunar May 5th. For thousands of years, the festival has been marked by eating Zong Zi and racing dragon boats. In order to remember Qu Yuan, one of the greatest poets in China, people hold the dragon boat races every year. That is the origins(起源) of this festival.

Qu Yuan was born in Zigui of Hubei Province over 2,200 years ago. Qu Yuan was an honest official(官员) of the state of Chu, during the Warring States Period (475-221 BC) (战国时期). He was upright(正直的) and wise. He wanted to bring his country peace and make the state stronger, but the country was in the hands of bad officials, so he failed. At last, he was very disappointed. He ended his life by throwing himself into the Miluo River. It was said people jumped from boats into the river and tried to save him. But it was too late. Also, they were very sad. They threw rice into the water to feed the dragons in the river. They hoped that the dragons would eat Zong Zi instead of the poet’s body.

Now we often read his poem Li Sao which is filled with deep love for his country. We can see the dragon boat races and have a kind of Chinese food named Zong Zi during the Dragon Boat Festival.
