Feeling ducky

VISITORS to the Xixi Wetland Dragon Boat Festival from May 30 to July 15 will find a giant inflated yellow duck in the lake.

The famous rubber duck will moor at the Zhoujiacun ferry terminal.

This year 160 boats will compete in a race to mark the Dragon Boat Festival on June 2.

The 16.5-meter-high rubber duck, the creation of Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman, has been shown in more than 10 cities around the world, including London, Hong Kong and Beijing, attracting huge crowds.
