Dragon Boat Festival traditions include hanging mugwort and wearing fragrant sachets. Known as the “King of Herbs,” mugwort’s natural aroma helps repel insects, promote relaxation, and symbolize protection and well-being. Handmade mugwort sachets and tapping hammers carry forward centuries of cultural heritage while expressing the festival’s wish for peace, health, and good fortune.
