Dumpling Festival is a special festival which is celebrated by the Chinese. Do anyone really know about the true story? As what I know from my primary teacher was, they have this festival is because there was once a very famous person which I am not too sure about the name, he was well famous and well liked by people. There was once he got accused by someone and at last he decided to commit suicide and jump down to the sea. After people around saw this incident, they felt really sad and they decided to throw dumpling into the sea and hoping the fish will eat the dumpling instead of eating him up. So every year during the dumpling festival, Chinese people do have the habit of throwing dumpling into the sea where the guy committed suicide from there. This is a true story but nowadays people around no longer apply in life.
