Dragon Boat Festival

This year is the second year that the Chinese government has granted workers a day off for the traditional festival. The holiday falls on May 28 but an extension day off will be granted to some on May 29. Folks will start getting things ready to make zongzi, a traditional snack made of sticky rice steamed inside a bamboo leaf. Chinese people eat zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival as commemoration to the legend behind the festival.

There are small celebrations on the mainland, but Hong Kong is a great place to take part in Dragon Boat Festival activities. Read more about the festival in Hong Kong from Hong Kong Guide, Rory Boland.
