In Chinese culture, a famous proverb says, “The dragon has nine sons, and each is different.” Though born of a mythical dragon, none resemble their father—instead, each carries a unique appearance, temperament, and symbolic role. Feng shui masters and craftsmen once placed these dragon sons in specific architectural spots—temples, rooftops, tombs, gates—depending on their nature. Each son has a story, a purpose, and a place—woven into the architectural and spiritual fabric of Chinese spaces.
Come ride with us and uncover the myth within the city—one dragon son at a time.
