The origin of this festival is explained by the folk story of a dragon that swallowed a fisherman's son. Guya, the fisherman, retaliated upon the dragon and burnt the dragon's house. The fire burned for nine days and finally people celebrated the fisherman's victory by eating the dragon. Five villages in the area received different parts of the dragon so that each village now holds a dragon festival on different day to celebrate his contribution. A 17-meter boat and two 10-meter boats are constructed, each with a carved dragon's head on its prow. The oarsman row to village where pleas are made to the dragon to bestow happiness on each community. Pigs, goats, ducks and geese are presented to the crew and headman.
