Dragon Boat festival

A traditional Chinese boating festival celebrated on the 5th day of the 5th lunar month. The activity of the festival involves the dragon boat race. A dragon boat is nothing but a human powered boat where the use of human strength is massive. The crew involves the Drummer who produces the drumbeat and motivates the crew, the paddlers whose job is to row the boat (this holds the maximum number of crew members) and lastly the steersman who maneuvers the boat according to the course. Being part of the dragon boat was and still is very prestigious in the Chinese culture.
