This Dragon Boat Festival, a plucky rice dumpling named Lil' Nuo is stealing hearts across Asia! 🌏✨ While families wrapped zongzi and hung mugwort, this curious little hero embarked on a village quest to uncover why we celebrate—meeting wise mentors like Grandpa Dragonhead and Qu Yuan’s statue along the way.
🍙 A Sticky Hero’s Quest
Lil' Nuo’s journey mirrors our own cultural rediscovery. From Brother Mugwort’s protective leaves to Sister Sachet’s fragrant wisdom, each encounter reveals layers of tradition—like how racing dragon boats honors poet Qu Yuan’s legacy. 🛶💨
