China: Dragon boat and its crew on the Li River, Guilin, Guangxi Province. Guilin's Dragon Boat Festival is held on the fifth day of the fifth month (May) of the Chinese lunar calendar every 3 years. The festival was originally held in memory of the great Chinese poet, Quyuan. The name Guilin means ‘Cassia Woods’ and is named after the osmanthus (cassia) blossoms that bloom throughout the autumn period. Guilin is the scene of China’s most famous landscapes, inspiring thousands of paintings over many centuries.
