The Dragon Boat Festival

The Dragon Boat Festival is the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, also known as the Dragon Boat Festival, Wuri Festival, May Festival, Wuri Festival, Aijie Festival, Duanwu Festival, Chongwu Festival, Wuri Festival and summer festival. It was originally a summer festival to drive away the plague. The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional festival of the Han people in China. The indispensable activities of the day gradually evolved into eating zongzi, dragon boat racing, hanging Acorus gramineus, Artemisia argyi leaves, smoking Atractylodes lancea, Angelica dahurica, drinking realgar wine. It is said that eating zongzi and dragon boat race are in memory of Qu Yuan, so after liberation, the Dragon Boat Festival was named "poet's Day" to commemorate Qu Yuan.

"Dragon Boat Festival of China" is one of the national legal holidays and listed in the world intangible cultural heritage list. There are a large number of poems, ci poems, songs, Fu and other literary works handed down.

Mid-Autumn Festival

Moon cake is the first food of Mid Autumn Festival, and its origin has been discussed in many ways. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, Zhang Shicheng (or Liu Bowen), the leader of Taizhou's anti yuan uprising (or Zhu Yuanzhang's counselor), took advantage of the Mid Autumn Festival when the people gave each other round cakes, and carried a note in the cake that "killing Tartars on the night of August 15". Everyone saw the note in the cake, which spread from one word to ten, and from ten to one hundred. As promised, on that night, they all killed "Tartars" (yuan soldiers), and then everyone ate cakes to celebrate Yishengli, and officially called the moon cake of Mid Autumn Festival. In a long period of history, even at the end of the last century, many moon cakes were also pasted with a small piece of paper! Unfortunately, little pieces of paper have disappeared from the moon cakes produced in recent years, and the "cultural code" contained in the moon cakes from generation to generation has disappeared. Another saying is that in the early years of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty, General Xu Da conquered the capital of Yuan Dynasty, which was occupied by the remnants of Yuan Dynasty. The news of victory spread to the capital, Nanjing. Zhu Yuanzhang, who was playing chess, was overjoyed. He preached that the Mid Autumn Festival should be celebrated all over the world, and he rewarded his subjects with the moon cake that had been used to transmit information during the anti yuan uprising. Since then, moon cakes have become the "legal" food for the Mid Autumn Festival, and must be eaten.
