The Eastern Dragon is a mythical creature found in various Asian cultures, particularly in China, Japan, and Korea. Unlike the fire-breathing dragons of Western mythology, Eastern Dragons are often seen as benevolent and wise. They are typically depicted as long, serpentine beings with antler-like horns and are associated with water, rain, and agriculture. In Chinese culture, the Eastern Dragon symbolizes power, strength, and good fortune. It is often linked to the emperor and is a common motif in festivals and art. These dragons are believed to bring prosperity and are celebrated during events like the Chinese New Year.
