It's Christmas once again. And you are right there, bothered by a serious question. What do men want for Christmas?
It's the time of year when men are wondering what Christmas gifts they will receive this season. It's difficult to find the right Christmas gift for a man, and definitely a lot more difficult than finding one for a woman. Every man has his own taste in things. And just like women, men have a variety of interests-sports, music, cars, games, gadgets(小器具), etc. The possibilities are endless. You should think of something that caters to his interests and not just something that you see in a hardware store or a sports outlet.

You can simply choose anything from this list of top Christmas gift ideas we are about to give you to make the receiver feel special.

The Dragon Boat Festival is the holiday the honours the tragic death of Qu Yuan, who died in 278 BC. In the Warring States period, Qu Yuan was a poet and statesman. He was the number one advisor of the Chu State. But people were jealous of his position and said lots of bad words behind his back. The king wouldn't take his advice in the end and was captured by the enemy of the neighbouring kingdom and finally died there. However, the new king continued to enjoy the luxury life and didn't like Qu Yuan, either. He ordered Qu Yuan to leave his homeland. Later, when Qu Yuan heard the news that Qin had defeated the Chu State, he was very sad and threw himself into the Miluo River at last.
The legend goes that many people tried to rescue their honoured statesman by chasing him down the river, beating drums to scare away the fish and throwing rice dumplings into the river so that the fish would not eat his body. The dragon boat race is one of the customs, which symbolises citizens of the Chu State who raced down the river to save Qu Yuan then.
Also, there are many other customs like eating rice dumplings(zongzi), hanging icons of Zhong Kui (amythic guardian figure), hanging mugworts (艾草)and calamus (菖蒲) and wearing perfumed medicine bags.
All of these customs were regarded by the ancient people as an effective way of preventing diseases and evils, promoting good health and well-being.
The Dragon Boat Festival is a public holiday observed widely in China. And now this festival has gone global. The international dragon boat races are held all over Asia and the United States. In the US, they can be found in Boston, New York, etc.

If you're interested in visiting Krabi but don't know where to start, this passage will attempt to answer some of your questions.
Although this may seem discouraging, Krabi, like most of Thailand, is very tourist-friendly and there is a developed infrastructure(基础设施) for independent travellers. Plus, on this site you should be able to find most of the information you need to plan your holiday.
Not only are they very cheap compared with similar resorts in the west, but there are hundreds of small, friendly places that don't even make it on the package-tour's radar. You can read our Krabi hotel reviews to get some idea of what is on offer.
Budgeting for a holiday can be difficult, especially in a country you've never visited, so we have created a Krabi budget planner to help you get an idea of the expenses you will spend outside of your accommodation. There's even packing advice and a guide to the climate and seasons so you can work out the best time to visit.
We've included information about getting to Krabi, with bus, boat and flight information, and a guide to getting around Krabi. And of course, there are maps of the region as well.
A. Finally, so you can plan your travel schedule.
B. The first step in planning is to decide whereabouts to base your holiday.
C. Below, we've laid out these steps more clearly.
D. How to plan your Krabi holidays?
E. First of all, there is little reason not to organise your trip yourself.
F. From where to stay to what to see and do, we have Krabi covered.
G. Another reason to plan your holiday independently is the resorts in Krabi.
