origin
It is said that on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, Qu dollar, the patriotic poet of Chu, committed suicide by jumping into the Miluo River. In order to prevent the fish from eating Qu dollar's body, the people dropped rice dumplings into the river.
Zongzi is the representative food of Dragon Boat Festival
Ingredients in Zongzi
Relevant documents were first found in "Fengtu Ji" written in Zhou Dynasty in the Western Jin Dynasty in the third century AD, and it was not originally related to sacrifices. After hundreds of years, later generations embedded its origins into folk beliefs in various places, and derived legends about dragon sacrifices, Wu Zixu or Qu dollar.
In addition to commemorating Qu dollar, Zongzi is considered to be related to Wu Zixu's belief in Jiangsu and other places.
Dragon Boat Festival
The Dragon Boat Festival is a traditional festival in the Chinese cultural circle. It is held on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month every year. It is a summer festival to bid farewell to the five plague gods and drive away plagues. It is one of the four major Chinese festivals. Along with the New Year and Mid-Autumn Festival, it is an important traditional festival in mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, the Japanese Islands, the Ryukyu Islands, the Korean Peninsula, and Vietnam in the cultural circle of Chinese characters. In September 2009, UNESCO officially approved its inclusion in the Representative List of Human Intangible Cultural Heritage, making the Dragon Boat Festival the first Chinese festival to be selected as a world intangible cultural heritage.
According to widespread legend, Qu dollar, the patriotic poet of Chu State, committed suicide by drowning himself in the Miluo River on this day. Later, in memory of Qu dollar, some people called it Poet's Day. It may be said that it is the death day of Wu Zixu, a loyal minister of the state of Wu.
