Is dragon boat racing fun in Hunan on June 12 (April 29) Dragon Boat Festival in Huangwei bridge, Hualong Town? The origin of dragon boat racing time in Hunan
Dragon Boat Race in Hunan
Since the beginning of the Eastern Han Dynasty, after Ma Yuanping and Wuling man, Xupu formed the custom of taking the fifth day of the first year as the small dragon boat festival and the fifteenth day as the big dragon boat festival. The dragon boat was launched on the fifth day of the first year, landed on the shore on the fifteenth day, practiced on weekdays, competed on the fourteenth and fifteenth day, and lasted for 11 days. Xupu people begin to prepare for Xupu Double Dragon Boat Festival in late April every year. In the old custom, 'Stealing materials' is an old custom of dragon boat race in Wuxi area. The origin of this is that when building a dragon boat, the wood you buy is stupid, the wood you steal is smart, and the dragon boat should be smart instead of stupid. Therefore, before the small dragon boat festival, people steal materials in the middle of the night. In ethical materials, if the owner of the wood finds out, he will chase and scold, but that's something the thief can't get. Because the owner of the wood runs ahead and the owner of the wood chases after, it means that the dragon boat will be chased and run by others during the competition, and it will win naturally. Therefore, there is a popular saying: "if you want to steal Dragon Boat materials, you will win nine heads in ten competitions.".
Xupu called rowing dragon boat "raking dragon boat". Xupu's Dragon picking boat had to be rowed from the fifth day of May to the 15th day of May. After Xupu dragon boat was launched on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, it was usually trained in the river alone, and sometimes it competed one-on-one with a single dragon boat. The official competition was held on the 15th day of May. As a result, the forces are readjusted by 'clearing away'. Everyone who gets on the Dragon Boat dare not neglect at all times. Once they are cleared out, they will not only be shamed, but also laughed at by their relatives and friends. Parents will feel that they have nothing to do with their faces, and girls will even look down on him.
The dragon boat in Dajiangkou town of Xupu follows the traditional folk custom of thousands of years, and still retains its strong, exquisite and profound cultural heritage. How to register for Dragon Boat Race in Suzhou on Dragon Boat Festival? What are the requirements for registration?
