The Dragon Boat Festival, also called Double Fifth Festival, is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month by the Chinese lunar calendar. This festival dates back to about 2,000 years ago with a number of legends explaining its origin. The best-known story centers on a great patriotic poet named Qu Yuan, who drowned himself in the river on this day. For thousands of years, the festival has been marked by eating zong zi (glutinous rice(糯米)wrapped to form a pyramid using bamboo or reed leaves) and racing dragon boats. People also carry a spice bag around with them to prevent evils and diseases. This year Dragon Boat Festival falls on May 28, which is also the best time to travel in China.
