Wuzhen, a charming water town, is renowned for its traditional dragon boat races. This year, for the Dragon Boat Festival, Wuzhen will launch a dragon boat lantern cruise, blending traditional paddle boats with dragon boats to create a unique celebration.

Eight paddle boats, adorned with vibrant lanterns and featuring dragon-shaped lights at both the bow and stern, will glide through the Xishi River. The nightly cruises will start from the Tourist Service Center Pier and the Ruyi Bridge Pier at 7:30 pm and 8:30 pm respectively.

Visitors walking through the town will also be treated to a spectacular sight as the illuminated dragon boats parade along the river.
