Dragon boat race:

1, historical origin

Dragon boat race has a long history and is a traditional water sport of the Chinese nation. It has been listed in the national intangible cultural heritage list and has a very strong mass base. In the dragon boat race, the rowers paddle hard, and the audience watches the game along the coast, shouting constantly. This is a very grand scene in a year.

2. Continuation and inheritance

As the continuation and inheritance of China people's production and life style such as labor, sacrifice and entertainment in the farming era, the cultural connotation of dragon boat race is more prominent than the competitive significance. Nowadays, the dragon boat race widely carried out in various places has also given this traditional folk sports a new definition and infinite charm.
