Two children help their grandmother hang wild wormwood on the door as protection against evil spirits, in Zigui, Hubei province, June 8, 2010. Zigui is Quyuan's hometown. People there held various commemorative activities, such as putting up poetic couplets and wild wormwood, wrapping zongzi (rice dumpling) and reciting poems. Quyuan was minister to the king during the Warring States Period. But the patriot was ejected after being accused of conspiracy. He drowned himself in the Milo River at age 37. His death is traditionally commemorated during Duanwu Festival. [Photo/Xinhua]
