ELIYA Live Show on Dragon Boat Festival

The Dragon Boat Festival, together with the Spring Festival, the Tomb Sweeping Festival and the Mid Autumn Festival, is one of the four Chinese traditional festivals. The Dragon Boat Festival is on the 5th day of the 5th lunar month, with more than twenty alternate names, among which, Quyuan Festival and Zongzi Festival are the most well known.

The Dragon Boat Festival was first a festival founded to worship the Dragon ancestors and pray for blessings. However, Quyuan, a famous patriotic poet from Chu State, jumped into the Miluo River on May 5th and killed himself. The local people immediately rowed a boat to rescue Quyuan, but they never found Quyuan's body. In order to express their grief, people boated on rivers, and then gradually developed into dragon boat race. Besides, people were afraid that the fish in the river would eat Quyuan, so they took rice dumplings and threw into the river to prevent the fish from spoiling Quyuan's body and it gradually developed into Zongzi. Later, it became the custom of eating zongzi Therefore, people also take the Dragon Boat Festival as a festival to commemorate Quyuan. This is how Quyuan Festival and Zongzi Festival coming from.
