How to celebrate holiday at Dragon Boat Festival?

China's Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional festival full of traditions and superstitions, maybe originating from dragon worship; an event on the sporting calendar; and a day of remembrance/worship for Qu Yuan, Wu Zixu, and Cao E.

The festival has long been a traditional holiday in China.

The Dragon Boat Festival date is based on the lunar calendar, therefore the date varies from year to year on the Gregorian calendar. Dragon Boat Festival 2020 falls on June 25 (Thursday). China will have 3 days of holiday from Thursday (June 25) to Saturday (June 27), and we will be back at work on Sunday, June 28.

Three of the most widespread activities conducted during the Dragon Boat Festival are eating (and preparing) zongzi, drinking realgar wine, and racing dragon boats.

And dragon boat racing is the most important activity during the Dragon Boat Festival.

 

The wooden boats are shaped and decorated in the form of a Chinese dragon. The boat size varies by region. Generally, it is about 20–35 meters in length and needs 30–60 people to paddle it.

During the races, dragon boat teams paddle harmoniously and hurriedly, accompanied by the sound of beating drums. It is said that the winning team will have good luck and happy life in the following year.

Our company will also have three days' holiday, during which employees will reunite with their families, make zongzi together, and rowboat races with friends.
