The tenth of June is the Dragon Boat Festival, which is one of the mandatory Chinese traditional festivals.
This festival has several legendary origins and one of them is: there was a very famous poet in ancient China named Quyuan, who cared about people's living conditions so much. He couldn't stand the dark political rules and the terrible living conditions of people; he committed suicide by diving into the Miluo river.
People feared that the fish and other animals in the river would eat his corpse. They made a lot of rice dumplings to feed the fish in the rivers and also, they took boats on the river to drive the fish away.
There are two basic traditional activities for the dragon boat festival. One is making and eating rice dumplings, which are popular all over the whole country. The other is racing dragon boats in rivers in the south part of China. The reason why the boats are named dragon boats? Because the boats used in the racing have dragon patterns in their appearance.
In my area, there are two local traditions for this festival. One is to cut wild wormwood and hang them on our gates. The other is to make small fragrant bags (using some fragrant plants) and hang them around children's necks. The reason people do these is to drive those harmful insects away to protect people. (During this festival, the weather has become hot, so the harmful insects become more active)

I'm not sure 'mandatory' is the right word. Are people forced to attend?

This festival has several legendary origins and one of them is:Its origin is attributed to several legends. For example, there was a very famous poet in ancient China named Quyuan, who cared much about people's living conditions so much.
"so much" should be reserved for informal communication.

BIt's because the boats used in the racinges have dragconic patterns in their appearance.
In spoken English, starting with "Because" is natural, but you can't use it to start a sentence in an article.
In my area, there are two local traditions for this festival.
One is to cut wild wormwood and hang ithem on our gates.
Wormwood is an uncountable noun, so we use "it."
The other is to make small fragrantce bags (using some fragrant plants) and hang them around children's necks.
This is tricky to explain, but using the noun "fragrance" helps us understand these are special, traditional bags that are commonly made. They are fragrant, but here we want to say that they are supposed to be fragrant and are made in a particular way, so we say "fragrance bags."
The reason people do theseis is to drive those harmful insects away toand protect people.
Only use "those" if you have already mentioned harmful insects. In this case, it's the first time, so it's omitted.
(During this festival, the weather has become hot it's pretty hot outside, so the harmful insects become more active)
Usually we simply say "It's hot/cold today." when using hot or cold. However, words like "nice" or "stormy" are often accompanied by "get" or "become." I'm not sure why.
