Dragon Boat Race is an important activity of the Dragon Boat Festival. It is very popular and important in South China. It should be a kind of sacrificial activity for the ancient Yue people to worship the god of water or the dragon god. Its origin may start at the end of primitive society. Dragon Boat Race is a traditional folk water sports entertainment project in China. It has been circulated for more than 2,000 years. Most of it is held at a festive festival. It is a multi-player group paddle competition. History records that Dragon Boat Racing was celebrated in honor of the patriotic poet Qu Yuan. This shows that Dragon Boat Racing is not only a kind of sports and entertainment activities, but also reflects the people's patriotism and collectivism.

端午节为什么要赛龙舟?

赛龙舟是端午节的一项重要活动,在中国南方十分流行和重视,它最早当应是古越族人祭水神或龙神的一种祭祀活动,其起源有可能始于原始社会末期。赛龙舟是中国民间传统水上体育娱乐项目,已流传两千多年,多是在喜庆节日举行,是多人集体划桨竞赛。史书记载,赛龙舟是为了纪念爱国诗人屈原而兴起的。由此可见,赛龙舟不仅是一种体育娱乐活动,更体现出人们心中的爱国主义和集体主义精神。
