Dragon Boat Racing

Dragon Boat Race (English name: dragon boat race) is one of the important customs of China Dragon Boat Festival, which is widely distributed in the south of China. There are also dragon boat races in cities near rivers and lakes in the north, mostly in the form of dragon boat rowing and dragon boat dancing.

There are many sayings about the origin of dragon boat racing, including offering sacrifices to Cao E, Qu Yuan and water gods, and its origin can be traced back to the Warring States period. Dragon boat race was first introduced to Japan, Vietnam, Britain and other neighboring countries, and it was the official event of Guangzhou Asian Games in 20 10. On may 23rd, 201/year, the dragon boat race was approved by the State Council and included in the third batch of national intangible cultural heritage list.

The commemorative dragon boat race was formed in the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties and continues to this day. Local Customs of Wu People in the Early Zhou Dynasty is the earliest document to record the dragon boat race on the Dragon Boat Festival, which shows that "dragon boat race" has become a common practice in the Three Kingdoms period. Dragon Boat Race is the earliest document commemorating Qu Yuan, and it is the information left by Wu Jun, Tang Daizong Valley and Wei Zhi in Liang Dynasty.

Among them, Wei Zhi wrote in A Record: "Qu Yuan visited the sun in May and went to Miluo. The natives chased him to Dongting, and the boat on the lake was too small to get help. He sang, "How can I cross the lake?" Therefore, it is the drama of a racing car to come back from fighting drums and go to the pavilion in the race, which has been passed down from generation to generation. Its cars are fast, songs are loud, land and water, audiences are like clouds, and counties are straight. "
