The exact origins of duanwu are unclear,but one traditional view holds that the festival me morializes the chinese poet quyu an of the warring states period.he committed suicide by drowning himself in a river because he was dis gusted by the corrupt i on of the chu government.the local people,knowing him to be a good man,decided to throw food into the river to feed the fishes to prevent them from eating qu's body.they alsos at on dragonboats,and tried to scare the fishes away by the thundering sound of drums a board the boat and the fierce looking dragon-head in the front of the boat.
In the early year soft he chinese republic,duanwu was also celebrated as"poets' day",due to quyuan's status as chin a'sfirst poet of personal ren own.
Today,people eat zongzi(the food originally intended to feed the fishes)and race dragonboats in memory of qu'sdramatic death.

Today,grandma's house also wrapped zongzi.I took out two large and small zongz i leaves like Grandma,folded a corner like Grandma,put somes oaked glut i no us rice on the folded corner tube,stuffed a large piece off at pork,and covered it with glut i no us rice.I began to be a little compl a cent and thought:a simple zongz i can't help the smart me.But when I covered the Zongye again,theglut i no us rice jumped out one after another like a naughty child.I was as anxious as ants on a hot pot.Fortunately,my grandmother"solved the encirclement"forme-I lost some glut i no us rice,so I breathed a sigh of relief and put down a heavy stone in my heart.After somes mall set backs,I finally came to the last step-tying a palm rope.Rice dumplings need to be wrapped tightly to taste good,so I took the palm rope and tied the rice dumplings round and round,and then gave them to my grandmother.At this time,I realized that making zongz i is a craft.It's not easy to wrap it.
I feel that people commem or ate Qu Yuan's great pat riotism through various colorful activities,and the traditional custom soft he Dragon Boat Festival have been formed over time.It contains the deep feeling soft he people of them other land and carries the go rgeo us culture of the Chinese nation.It origin ate dand developed in China.We should protect it,in her it it and let people all over the world know it.
