The Dragon Boat Festival, "Duan
Wu" Festival or "Duen Ng" Festival is a traditional Chinese festival
annually held on the Double Fifth Day (fifth day of the fifth month) of
the Chinese calendar (corresponding to late May/June on the modern
Gregorian calendar). One of the grandest festive events in China, the
occasion is celebrated in many other parts of East Asia as well as in
