Duanwu Festival, also known as Dragon Boat Festival, is to commemorate Qu Yuan, a patriotic poet and minister of the ancient state of Chu during the Warring States Period (475 BC-221 BC) in the Chinese history, who drowned himself before his state fell to the invasion of the enemy. Duanwu Festival will fall on June 20 this year. [Photo/Agencies]
