What is Dragon Boats?

 A dragon boat is a human-powered wooden watercraft. It is shaped and decorated in the form of a Chinese dragon. Dragon boats vary in size by region, and the crew numbers change accordingly. Generally it is about 20–35 meters in length, and it needs 30–60 people to paddle it.

During the race each team has a drummer in the head of the dragon boat; the drummer is the heartbeat of the team. Dragon boat teams paddle harmoniously at a pace which is set by the drummer, and do their best synchronized efforts. 토토


Dragon Boat History

Several versions about the dragon boat history are spread. The most widely spread one is related to a famous poet and politician, Qu Yuan (476 BC - 221 BC) in the Warring States Period. In 278 BC, on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, Qu Yuan, whose political views were not adopted, drown himself in the Miluo River. People was deeply moved by him so that they rowed boats to save him but failed. Since then, dragon boat race has become a folk activity to commemorate Qu Yuan.

In 1970s, dragon boat rowing gradually evolved from a folk custom to a professional water sport. In 1976, the Hong Kong Dragon Boat Invitational Race was held. Since then, the dragon boat race became a modern sports event, and spread to more than 30 countries around the world. In 1980, the dragon boat race was listed into the state sports competition programs of China.
