Dragon Boat Festival: Traditional Chinese culture and patriotic spirit

For more: https://news.cgtn.com/news/2025-05-31... The Dragon Boat Festival arrives with fragrant zongzi – steamed rice mixed with meat or dates, wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves – and racing boats. Two millennia ago, the patriotic statesman Qu Yuan sacrificed himself in the Miluo River for his ideals. Locals raced boats and threw zongzi to honor his memory, creating a timeless tradition. Today, we carry forward his legacy through flavors and spirit. This festival celebrates not just customs but the enduring bond between heritage and patriotism.
