Dragon Boat Festival is one of the national legal holidays in China, and it has been included in the world intangible cultural heritage list. Dragon Boat Festival originated in China. It was originally a festival for China people to get rid of diseases and prevent epidemics. Before the Spring and Autumn Period in Wuyue, there was a custom of holding tribal totem sacrifices in the form of dragon boat races on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. Later, because the poet Qu Yuan died on this day, it became a traditional festival for the Han people in China to commemorate Qu Yuan. In some areas, Wu Zixu and Cao E are also commemorated.
