Dear David,
I'm glad to share with you something about the Dragon Boat Festival, one of the most important traditional festivals in China.
The Dragon Boat Festival falls on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month. It is in memory of Qu Yuan, a great poet in ancient China. He drowned himself in the river to show his loyalty to his country.
On this day, people hold dragon boat races, which are exciting and full of energy. Eating zongzi, the special food for this festival, is also a must. Zongzi is made of rice with different fillings.
I really love this festival because it not only allows me to learn about our history and culture but also brings families closer together.
I hope you can learn more about Chinese culture. Looking forward to your reply.
Best regards,
Li Ming
