Eastern Dragons
Eastern dragons are mythical creatures found in various cultures across Asia, particularly in China, Japan, and Korea. Unlike their Western counterparts, Eastern dragons are often seen as benevolent beings associated with water, rain, and agriculture. They are typically depicted as long, serpentine creatures with antler-like horns and are revered as symbols of power, strength, and good fortune.
In Chinese culture, dragons are integral to festivals and celebrations, such as the Dragon Boat Festival. They are also associated with the emperor and are believed to bring prosperity and harmony. Eastern dragons are often featured in art, literature, and folklore, embodying wisdom and protection.
