From 5:00 to 6:00 p.m. on the fifth day of May every year, the masses of Xindu will pick up "Dragon Boat relatives" in the river. On the sixth day of May, the masses of Xindu and its neighboring towns such as Renyi, Pumen and Lingfeng will spontaneously take part in folk dragon boat races on the Hejiang river of Xindu town. Year after year, they never stop. Xindu, a village near the river, created a dragon boat cruise. The length of the dragon boat is about 20 meters, 20 seats, each seat 2 people, a dragon boat can sit 20 to 30 people, dragon boat is painted on both sides of fish, shrimp, crab and other patterns, the bow is equipped with a dragon head, the stern is equipped with a wooden rudder shaped like a dragon's tail. When rowing, the bow beat the drum, the middle beat the Gong, and the stern steered. With the rhythm of the drum, the sailors rowed vigorously, chasing each other, and the scene was spectacular. Because some dragon boats are far away by water, it is difficult to go back after the Xindu race on the same day, so the villages on both sides of Xindu put the far away dragon boats and people to stay overnight, and then go back the next day after having enough to eat, one to two to deepen their feelings. This custom has continued to this day, and the local people call it "Dragon Boat relatives". There was a poet who praised the local dragon boat racing custom in Xindu: crossing the water, racing the dragon boat, the flag cloud moving like the sea, the singing and dancing day in southern Xinjiang, the sound of gongs and drums, and thunder in the sky
