賽龍舟

賽龍舟(Dragon boat racing)是端午節(jié)的一項(xiàng)重要活動(dòng)，在中國(guó)南方尤為流行。關(guān)于這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)的由來(lái)，有一種說法是為了紀(jì)念中國(guó)古代的著名愛國(guó)詩(shī)人屈原。龍舟的大小和樣式多種多樣，但一般都帶有裝飾性的龍頭和龍尾。賽龍舟不僅是一種體育和娛樂活動(dòng)，它更能體現(xiàn)人們心中的集體主義和愛國(guó)主義精神。賽龍舟現(xiàn)已被列入國(guó)家級(jí)非物質(zhì)文化遺產(chǎn)名錄(National Intangible Cultural Heritage List)。
