The Chinese dragon, also known as loonglong or lung, is a legendary creature in Chinese mythology, Chinese folklore, and Chinese culture at large.

They traditionally symbolize potent and auspicious powers, particularly control over water, rainfall, typhoons, and floods. The dragon is also a symbol of power, strength, and good luck for people who are worthy of it in East Asian culture.

During the days of Imperial China, the Emperor of China usually used the dragon as a symbol of his imperial strength and power. In Chinese culture, excellent and outstanding people are compared to a dragon, while incapable people with no achievements are compared to other, disesteemed creatures, such as a worm.

A number of Chinese proverbs and idioms feature references to a dragon, such as "Hoping one's child will become a dragon" (望子成龙)
