@China: The Oldest Dragon Boat Race

The Yanbu Old Dragon is the oldest dragon boat in China. Its history can be traced to the 7th year of Xuande in the Ming dynasty, which has been 580 years. Every year on the Dragon Boat Festival, the Yanbu Old Dragon will visit the Pantang Dragon Boat, which is his adopted son, in Lai Wan, Guangzhou, and hold a grand Dragon Boat Race. The day after the Dragon Boat Festival, the Pantang Dragon Boat will visit Old Dragon in Yanbu. Over the centuries, customs have been passed down from generation to generation, and the friendship between the two cities has become a deed praised far and wide.
