作為中國重要的傳統節日之一，端午節，又稱端陽節、龍舟節等，日期在每年農歷五月初五。端午節起源于中國，始于春秋戰國時期，至今已有兩千多年歷史。傳說戰國時期的楚國詩人屈原在五月初五跳汨羅江自盡，后人亦將端午節作為紀念屈原的節日；也有紀念伍子胥、曹娥及介子推等說法。
As one of China’s significant traditional festivals, the Duanwu Festival, also known as Dragon Boat Festival or the Duanyang Festival, falls on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month each year. Originating in China, the festival began during the Spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, boasting a history of over 2,000 years. It is traditionally believed that Qu Yuan, a poet from the Chu state, drowned himself in the Miluo River on this day, making the festival a day to honor his memory. Other stories suggest it also commemorates figures like Wu Zixu, Cao E, and Jie Zitui.
在中國，端午節自古就是食粽與賽龍舟的喜慶日子，在南方地區還保留著喝雄黃酒的傳統，北方則流行掛艾草、燒菖蒲、用五毒辟邪，其目的都是希望能夠順利度過這一時期。2009年9月，端午節成為中國首個入選世界非遺的節日。
In China, the Duanwu Festival has long been celebrated with activities like eating zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) and racing dragon boats. In southern regions, the tradition of drinking realgar wine persists, while in the north, people hang mugwort, burn calamus, and use the "five poisons" to ward off evil, all in the hopes of smoothly navigating through this period. In September 2009, the Dragon Boat Festival became the first Chinese festival to be inscribed on the UNESCO Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
