Many people around China are anticipating the upcoming Dragon Boat Festival, which falls on Thursday this year, is celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth month according to Chinese Lunar Calendar. For thousands of years, the festival has been marked by eating zong zi (glutinous rice) wrapped to form a pyramid using bamboo or reed leaves) and racing dragon boats. 

The festival is also best known for its dragon-boat races, especially in the southern provinces where there are many rivers and lakes. This regatta commemorates the death of Qu Yuan, a loyal minister who was said to have committed suicide by drowning himself in a river. The races are held among different clans, villages and organizations, and the winners are awarded medals, banners, jugs of wine and festive meals.

Our SUNTAN sales team will have one day holiday on June 9th, 2016, please kindly note.
