The Dragon Boat Festival , one of the Chinese traditional festivals , dates back to over 2,000 years . It is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the Chinese calendar , and it will fall on June 9 next year. People celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival in honor of Qu Yuan , a great poet of ancient China .
Especially significant to us is its dragon - boat races , especially in the southern places where there are many rivers and lakes , Besides , people always cook and enjoy the traditional food Zongzi composed of meat and rice wrapped in reed leaves to celebrate it.
