Experiencing China’s Dragon Boat Festival for the First Time 🇨🇳

We travelled to China just in time for the Dragon Boat Festival – and what we experienced was completely unexpected. From intense boat races to traditional food like zongzi, and full-blown street celebrations, this is one of the wildest festivals we’ve ever witnessed. With help from some incredible locals, we got a front-row seat to the chaos, culture, and energy of one of China’s biggest holidays.

This was our first time attending the Dragon Boat Festival, and let’s just say… we had no idea what we were in for.
