The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as the Dragon Boat Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival, the Double Fifth Festival, and the Mid Heaven Festival, is a folk festival that combines worship of gods and ancestors, praying for blessings and exorcism, celebrating entertainment, and eating. The Dragon Boat Festival originated from the worship of natural phenomena and evolved from dragon worship in ancient times. In the midsummer Dragon Boat Festival, the seven dark dragons flew up in the center of the south, ranking the most "upright" in the year, just like the fifth line of the Book of Changes - Qian Trigrams: "Flying dragons are in the sky.". The Dragon Boat Festival is an auspicious day of "flying dragons in the sky". The dragon and dragon boat culture have always been throughout the history of the Dragon Boat Festival.
