Dragon boat races, lion dances, and zongzi treats lit up China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan this Friday as the vibrant Dragon Boat Festival unfolded — a dazzling celebration rooted in ancient traditions honoring poet Qu Yuan and the summer solstice. Teams from across provinces battled it out in Beijing’s Grand Canal, while Hong Kong’s racers dazzled in wild costumes, including a cartoon Taoist god. Paddlers synced to drumbeats, fans roared, and families savored sticky rice — all proving this festival isn’t just about competition, but community, perseverance, and cultural pride.
