Taiwanese Dragon Boat (Duanwu) Festival 2019

An exotic, romantic story behind this day is that the White Lady Snake fell in love with the human Hsu-Sheng, they got married and had a son. One day a monk called Fa-Hai arrived and was determined to show Hsu-Sheng what his wife really was. They got the Lady White drunk with Realgar wine during the Dragon Festival. She lost her magic power and turned into a white snake. Fa-Hai imprisoned her at Thunder Pagoda, until one day the Lady White’s son grew up and rescued his mother from the pagoda. The family finally reunited and lived together happily ever after.
