How much do you know about the origin and customs of the Dragon Boat Festival? Now let's learn about the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival and the stories behind it. The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as the Dragon Boat Festival, is one of the largest traditional festivals in my country. The meaning of "duan" is the same as that of "beginning", so calling "duanwu" is also called "the fifth day of the first day"; "moon. And because noon is "Yangchen", so the Dragon Boat Festival is also called "Duanyang". On May 5th, both the month and the day are five, so it is called five, and it is also called Wu.
Regarding the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival, there are theories about commemorating Qu Yuan, Wu Zixu, the filial daughter Cao E, the totem sacrifice of the ancient Yue people, the evil day, the dragon festival and the summer solstice. Most of us know the memory of Qu Yuan. . In 340 BC, Qu Yuan, a patriotic poet and doctor of the Chu State, faced the pain of subjugation. On May 5th, he threw a big stone into the Miluo River in grief and indignation. It is said that after Qu Yuan's death, the people of Chu State mourned and rushed to the Miluo River. Pay tribute to Qu Yuan. The fishermen rowed their boats and salvaged his real body back and forth on the river. A fisherman took out rice balls, eggs and other food prepared for Qu Yuan, and threw them into the river "thump, splash", saying that the fish, lobster and crab would not bite Doctor Qu's body when they were full. After seeing it, people followed suit. An old doctor brought a jar of realgar wine and poured it into the river, saying that it was to make the dragon and water beast faint, so as not to hurt Dr. Qu. Later, for fear that the rice balls would be eaten by Jiaolong, people thought of wrapping the rice with neem leaves, wrapping them with colored silk, and developing them into zongzi. Later, on the fifth day of May every year, there will be customs of dragon boat races, eating rice dumplings, and drinking realgar wine; in order to commemorate the patriotic poet Qu Yuan.
