On June 19, dragon boat teams competed on Pinqing Lake and at the Mt. Fengshan Temple Tourist Area in Shanwei, Guangdong Province, as part of the city's Dragon Boat Festival celebrations.

With drum beats sounding from the shore, fishing-song teams cheering the racers on, and crews battling for position on the water, the race brought together tradition, competition and community spirit.
