Dragon Boat Pond: A Waterborne "Fast and Furious"

😍 The most exciting part of the Dragon Boat Festival is the dragon boat race! This year, I went to the Dragon Boat Pond to experience the water carnival, and it was amazing! 🏞️ When I arrived at the Dragon Boat Pond, the place was already packed. The dragon boats were ready to go on the shimmering water, and the dragon heads on the boats were so lifelike that they seemed to be about to fly. 👀 The race began, and the drummer stood at the bow, beating the drum rhythmically. The drumbeats were like heartbeats, pounding in my chest. The rowers shouted in unison and paddled hard to the beat, splashing water everywhere as the dragon boats shot forward like arrows. Their muscles were taut, and sweat dripped down their cheeks. Every move was full of power, the power of unity and hard work! 💖 Besides the intense race, the atmosphere around the Dragon Boat Pond was also great! Colorful flags fluttered in the wind, and the stalls were full of sachets, zongzi, and other Dragon Boat Festival specialties. I enjoyed the soft and sweet zongzi while watching the dragon boat race and feeling the festive atmosphere. 🎈 At the Dragon Boat Pond, I saw the Dragon Boat Festival customs that have been passed down for thousands of years and felt the charm of traditional culture. This waterborne "Fast and Furious" is not only a competition but also a spiritual inheritance. If you want to experience the unique charm of the Dragon Boat Festival, you must come to the Dragon Boat Pond!
