Dragon cultures live not only in the eastern world but also in the western world. However, the western dragons look very different from the Chinese ones.
In ancient China, emperors thought they were real dragons. A dragon was a symbol of imperial power.
In China, there were many stories, plays, music, and paintings about dragons. Now, the names of mountains, rivers and places with dragons are countless in China. Also we can call a year “the year of the dragon”. In South China, the Dragon Boat Festival is an important festival.
