The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional Chinese holiday that takes place on the fifth day of the fifth month of the Chinese calendar, typically falling in late May or June according to the Gregorian calendar. This festival honours Qu Yuan, a cherished prime minister of the southern Chinese state of Chu during the Warring States Period (approximately 600 B.C. to 200 B.C.). The celebrations include dragon boat races and the consumption of sticky rice dumplings known as zongzi, reflecting southern Chinese customs. The Dragon Boat Festival combines rituals for good fortune with a break from the summer heat.
