The Dragon Boat Festival has many origins and customs. One of the origins is this. In ancient times, there was a poet called Qu Yuan. He was framed by the bad people. In order to prove his innocence, he died in the Miluo River and advocated patriotism. Later, people used dragon boat racing to save him. He put in the dumplings to make the fish and shrimp full and not to eat Qu Yuans remains.

The way we celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival in Liuzhou is: first thing in the morning, we first buy Artemisia argyi and Acorus calamus, then hang them on the door and paste red paper. My grandmother can also make dumplings, and the ingredients of zongzi are beans, chestnuts and pork. Its sweet to eat!
