Dear Jim,

I am glad to receive your e-mail. The Dragon Boat Festival, also called the Duanwu Festival, is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the Chinese calendar. People always eat rice dumplings and watch dragon boat races to celebrate it.

The festival is best known for its dragon-boat races, especially in the southern places where there are many rivers and lakes. It’s very popular.

The rice dumpling is made of rice, meat and so on. You can eat different kinds of rice dumplings. They are very delicious. And Dragon Boat Festival is for Qu Yuan. He is an honest minister who is said to have drown himself in the river.

Overall, the Dragon Boat Festival is very interesting!

What do you think of the Dragon Boat Festival? Looking forward to your reply.
