#香港仔龍舟競渡大賽 #香港仔海濱公園 # 端午節
端午節是中國的傳統節日，定在每年農曆五月初五，是夏季送離五瘟神，驅除瘟疫的節日。戰國時期的楚國愛國詩人屈原於這一日投江自盡，後以紀念屈原。
Despite many speculations around the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival, one of the more well-known ones is that the day is to honour Qu Yuan, a Chinese patriotic poet and a beloved state servant who gave his life for his country. He was, however, exiled by Emperor Huai because of false accusations and, after the next emperor surrendered the country to their rivals, Qu drowned himself in the Miluo River.
Upon hearing of Qu’s death, villagers rowed along the river to recover his body, but in vain. To prevent the fish from eating his body, they made zongzi, or glutinous rice dumplings, and threw them into the river. This has since evolved into the Chinese traditions of eating zongzi and rowing dragon boats during the festival.
