Your truly, Mei Li The Dragon Boat Festival Dear Amy, I learn from your letter that you want to know something about Chinese traditional festival – The Dragon Boat Festival. I’m happy to share what I know about it with you. 1 The festival has a history of more than 2,000 years. It falls on the fifth day of the fifth month according to the Chinese lunar calendar. On that day, people watch exciting dragon-boat races and make delicious zongzi, a kind of special food made of rice and meat, wrapped in bamboo leaves. These two are both done in memory of Qu Yuan, a great poet in history. In a word, we all love the festival because it’s a wonderful time to get together with family. I hope that you can come to celebrate it with us in the near future. Best wishes! Yours, Li Xiang The Mid-Autumn Festival The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the traditional Chinese festivals.
