The festival Tuen Ng is the popular Dragon Boat Festival.

It is an important holiday in South East Asia.

Dragon Boat teams usually visit Hong Kong from many countries.

The races are watched by large numbers of spectators.

This year's festival is much smaller because of coronavirus restrictions.

Now the virus is under control in the city, a smaller event was possible.

12 teams from local businesses and organisations participated in the one day festival.

Charlotte and Quentin are from one of the teams.

Where the festival comes from is a mystery.

Some believe that the celebration takes away illnesses.

Others think it prevents bad luck.

We all hope that's true!
