Duanwu Festival(Dragon Boat Festival) / 端午節

The Duanwu Festival, also often known, especially in the West, as the Dragon Boat Festival, is a traditional holiday originating in China, occurring near the summer solstice. The festival now occurs on the 5th day of the 5th month of the traditional Chinese calendar, which is the source of the festival's alternative name, the Double Fifth Festival.

Two of the most widespread activities conducted during the Duanwu Festival are racing dragon boats , preparing & eating zongzi (Rice Dumplings).

端午節，在西方國家也知道這個節日（國際間英文通稱為龍舟節），是一個源於中國的傳統節日，時間與夏至接近。 節日現在定於中國農歷五月的第五天，這是另一名稱五五節的起源。
賽龍舟和包粽子吃粽子是在端午節最廣泛進行的兩項節日活動。
