+ 加入清单The Dragon Boat Festival is a lunar holiday, occurring on the fifth day of
the fifth lunar month
The Chinese Dragon Boat Festival is a significant holiday celebrated in
China, and the one with the longest history. The Dragon Boat Festival is
celebrated by boat races in the shape of dragons. Competing teams row their
boats forward to a drumbeat racing to reach the finish end first.
The boat races during the Dragon Boat Festival are traditional customs to
attempts to rescue the patriotic poet Chu Yuan. Chu Yuan drowned on the fifth
day of the fifth lunar month in 277 B.C. Chinese citizens now throw bamboo
leaves filled with cooked rice into the water. Therefore the fish could eat the
rice rather than the hero poet. This later on turned into the custom of eating
tzungtzu and rice dumplings.
The celebrations is a time for protection from evil and disease for the
rest of the year. It is done so by different practices such as hanging healthy
herbs on the front door, drinking nutritious concoctions, and displaying
portraits of evils nemesis, Chung Kuei. If one manages to stand an egg on its
end at exactly 12:00 noon, the following year will be a lucky one.

+ 加入清单At the end of the Zhou Dynasty, the area we now know as China had fallen
into a state of fragmentation and conflict. While the Zhou dynasty had ruled for
several centuries, several other states, originally feudal domains, tried to
carve out their own kingdoms. The state of Qin would eventually emerge the
victor and unify all of China under one rule for the first time in history.
Qu Yuan served as minister to the Zhou Emperor. A wise and articulate man,
he was loved by the common people. He did much to fight against the rampant
corruption that plagued the court-- thereby earning the envy and fear of other
officials. Therefore, when he urged the emperor to avoid conflict with the Qin
Kingdom, the officials pressured the Emperor to have him removed from service.
In exile, he traveled, taught and wrote for several years. Hearing that the Zhou
had been defeated by the Qin, he fell into despair and threw himself into the
Milou River. His last poem reads:
Many a heavy sigh I have in my despair,Grieving that I was born in such an
unlucky time.I yoked a team of jade dragons to a phoenix chariot,And waited for
the wind to come,to sour up on my journey
As he was so loved by the people, fishermen rushed out in long boats,
beating drums to scare the fish away, and throwing zong zi into the water to
feed braver fish so that they would not eat Qu Yuans body.
The Modern Dragon Boat Festival started from that time to this day, people
commemorated Qu Yuan through Dragon Boat Races, eating zong zi, and several
other activities, on the anniversary of his death: the fifth day of the fifth
lunar month.
Dragon Boat races are the most exciting part of the festival, drawing
crowds of spectators. Dragon Boats are generally brightly painted and decorated
canoes. Ranging anywhere from 40 to 100 feet in length, their heads are shaped
like open-mouthed dragons, while the sterns end with a scaly tail. Depending on
the length, up to 80 rowers can power the boat. A drummer and flag-catcher stand
at the front of the boat. Before a dragon boat enters competition, it must be
"brought to life" by painting the eyes in a sacred ceremony. Races can have any
number of boats competing, with the winner being the first team to grab a flag
at the end of the course. Annual races take place all over China, Hong Kong,
Macao, Taiwan, and other overseas Chinese communities.
