People in various quirky costumes grabbed their paddles and rowed with laughter at a fancy dress dragon boat contest off the Tsim Sha Tsui East Promenade on Sunday.
As part of this year’s Hong Kong International Dragon Boat Races, the special contest attracted scores of participants from different walks of life, carrying on the celebratory mood of the Dragon Boat Festival.
The standard dragon boat 500m races in several divisions were also held on Sunday.
