Wrapping Zongzi, inheriting words, offering love... When the Dragon Boat Festival is coming, relevant commemorative activities around the country are gradually starting. The Chinese traditional festivals scattered on the "points" of the year bear rich cultural connotations and important values, and condense the cultural blood and ideological essence of the Chinese nation. Festivals are a bond that connects tradition with modernity, past and future. They nourish generations of people silently and become an important "festival" for people to settle down their individual spirit and rest their souls. Whenever a festival approaches, how to celebrate a meaningful traditional festival always becomes a hot topic for people to discuss. What was the holiday like? It is the inheritance of culture, the continuation of spirit, and the ability to never forget one's original intention. Traditional festivals are an important carrier of cultural inheritance. Chinese traditional festivals are rooted in ancient agricultural culture, a cultural creation with the participation of the whole people, and the crystallization of the experience and wisdom accumulated by the Chinese nation in the long-term practice process. They are the most dynamic and influential traditional culture with the most national characteristics and personality, carrying countless beautiful wishes and have accumulated into the spiritual symbol of the Chinese nation. The soul of traditional festivals is their cultural connotations. From the perspective of Dragon Boat Festival, many people call it "Zongzi Festival", which has some truth. Most Chinese traditional festivals are related to ancient sacrificial ceremonies, such as offering sacrifices to gods in the Spring Festival, ancestors in the Qingming Festival, Qu Yuan in the Dragon Boat Festival, etc. Festival food offerings have formed many related food cultures. It is said that the custom of wrapping Zongzi on the Dragon Boat Festival originated from Qu Yuan who threw himself into the river. In order to prevent his body from being eaten by fish and shrimp, people wrapped glutinous rice in a triangular shape, tied it with bamboo leaves, and fed fish in the river. To some extent, Zongzi is the material carrier of Dragon Boat Festival culture. This is similar to the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is called the "Moon Cake Festival". But we cannot simply understand festivals as "eating, drinking," or even blindly exaggerate the "eating" culture. Chinese traditional festivals contain rich cultural connotations, reflecting the excellent spiritual style of the Chinese nation, embodying the ideals and sentiments of the Chinese people from ancient to modern times, and embodying people's unremitting pursuit of a better life, gratitude and awe for nature, and the eternal hope for family reunion and harmony in the world. Each traditional festival has its own specific theme and cultural connotation, forming the deep cultural psychological code of the Chinese nation, and embodying the unique national sentiment of the Chinese people. Traditional festivals are an important carrier of cultural inheritance, and Chinese stories are passed down and continued from generation to generation through the special form of "festivals". Therefore, it is important to explore the cultural connotations of traditional festivals, guide the general public to actively participate in experiencing festival customs, showcase the Chinese spirit, enhance cultural confidence, and radiate great enthusiasm for loving the Party, patriotism, and socialism.
