On the afternoon of May 30, the Sino-Russian Joint Laboratory was filled with laughter and cheerful chatter as a Dragon Boat Festival cultural event themed “Discovering Fun in the Dragon Boat Festival—A Heartfelt Celebration of Zongzi” unfolded warmly here. With the aroma of freshly cooked zongzi filling the air and skilled hands crafting exquisite artistry, Chinese and Russian employees gathered together, savoring the profound charm of traditional Chinese culture amid joyful laughter and lively conversation.
The aroma of zongzi fills the room—the Dragon Boat Festival on your tongue.
At the start of the event, a corner of the lab’s cafeteria was already filled with the fragrant aroma of zongzi. Jade-green zongzi leaves wrapped around glistening glutinous rice and plump fillings. As everyone savored the warm zongzi—soft, chewy, and sweetly flavored red-date zongzi, or savory and rich meat zongzi—each bite was a true taste of the Dragon Boat Festival.
Handmade Live – Creative Flourish
Mugwort’s fragrant aroma, hammered into well-being.
Employees carefully bundle and fill dried mugwort, handcrafting mugwort health hammers that symbolize warding off evil spirits and preventing epidemics. With each gentle tap on the shoulders and neck, the distinctive, refreshing fragrance of mugwort spreads out, soothing fatigue and invoking good health and well-being.
A bouquet conveys heartfelt emotions, brimming with “ai” (love) and vitality.
Lush green mugwort leaves paired with delicate sweet flag, adorned with auspicious ribbons—bouquets of mugwort, brimming with natural charm and festive blessings, are lovingly crafted by skilled hands, transforming traditional customs into elegant accents for modern life.
Bamboo cage sachets, carrying blessings and heartfelt sentiments.
Making bamboo-cage sachets is a true test of patience. Everyone carefully threads strings through the delicate bamboo cages, then meticulously fills them with natural fragrances such as mugwort, weaving together beautiful visions of peace and good fortune.
China and Russia Join Hands, Cultural Fusion
At the event site, employees from China and Russia sat side by side in a warm and harmonious atmosphere. The Russian colleagues were filled with curiosity about each traditional craft, eagerly asking their Chinese counterparts for details as they sampled zongzi and made scented sachets. Meanwhile, the Chinese employees enthusiastically shared the stories and profound meanings behind the Dragon Boat Festival customs. Although their languages may differ, their appreciation of beauty, respect for culture, and joy in celebrating the festival all resonated deeply with one another. The fragrant aroma of mugwort, the tender softness of zongzi, and the exquisite elegance of round fans became cultural bridges that brought everyone closer together. Amidst laughter and cheerful chatter, the bonds of culture naturally took root and flourished.
