Qu Yuan

Qu Yuan is associated with the poetry of the Chu Ci and the history of Chu. Zigui in Hubei preserves a hometown tradition and memorial sites. The familiar account of his death places it in the Miluo River in today’s Hunan. These locations and the varied customs of the Dragon Boat Festival should remain distinct.
