赛龙舟
Dragon boat racing is a traditional Chinese culture that has been around for thousands of years. It is a popular sport in China, and is usually held during the Dragon Boat Festival. The dragon boat is a long, narrow boat with a dragon head and tail, and is usually decorated with colorful flags and streamers. The boat is usually manned by a team of 20 paddlers, a drummer, and a steersman. The drummer sets the pace for the paddlers, and the steersman steers the boat. The race is usually held in a river or lake, and the teams compete to see who can finish the race first. Dragon boat racing is not only a sport, but also a cultural activity. It is believed that the dragon boat racing originated from the ancient Chinese ritual of driving away evil spirits and bringing good luck. It is also a way to commemorate the famous Chinese poet Qu Yuan, who drowned himself in a river. Dragon boat racing is a great way to experience Chinese culture and tradition.
