Cooks work on an 800-kilogram zongzi in Huizhou, Guangdong Province, to mark the Dragon Boat Festival yesterday. Dubbed “No. 1 Zongzi in Huizhou,” the piece, 2,018 millimeters (201.8 centimeters) long and 55 centimeters wide, was made of rice, beans, pork, chicken and peanuts and could feed 3,000 people. The Dragon Boat Festival, which falls on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar, is marked by eating zongzi and racing dragon boats in China.Sun Yuchen |
