In folklore, the Dragon Boat Festival is one of the 'Three Major Festivals' besides Chinese New Year and Mid-Autumn Festival, bringing with it numerous lesser-known facts. Despite the common belief that the festival's customs are related to Qu Yuan, historical research suggests earlier origins tied to totemic offerings by the ancient Wu and Yue peoples, evolving over time to include rice dumplings. Other interesting facts include not gifting whole strings of rice dumplings due to negative symbolism, refraining from saying 'Happy Dragon Boat Festival' due to its somber historical connotations, and hanging mugwort not past 3 PM to ward off evil spirits effectively. Additionally, the festival's noon period (11AM - 1PM) is considered the most energetic time, suitable for various wellness practices like drinking noon water for purification and herbal baths for detoxification.
