Lego’s Dragon Boat Race set, and 3 other Chinese festivals they should do

The two dragon boats come with a full set of rowers, a drummer and a helmsman, and even tiny wheels underneath for 'racing'.

After releasing the hugely popular Lunar New Year Reunion Dinner and Dragon Dance sets recently, Lego has come up with yet another Asian limited edition set for yet another traditional Chinese festival - ‘Duan Wu Jie’ or the Duanwu Festival, or better known as the Dragon Boat Festival, which actually falls tomorrow.

But what exactly is Duan Wu Jie? It is actually a traditional summer solstice holiday that occurs on the fifth day of the fifth month in the Lunar calender. The festival originated in China, where it is also known as ‘Zhong Xiao Jie’ (Fealty Festival).
