The Harbor Purification Festival of Northern Taiwan | EP. 51 | Happy Fisherman
Every year in Yeliu on the northern coast of Taiwan, fishers pray for the safety and prosperity of the village through Harbor Purification Festival, where participants walk through water and fire.
The congregation would carry local deities on sedan chairs and parade the village, bestowing blessings to households by lighting up firecrackers. Sedan chair carriers would jump into the harbor and walk through burning charcoal and joss paper so as to show their reverence to the gods. Learn more about the history of this sacred tradition.

你的小孩他們很可愛❤😂
Oh,. the sacrifices you have to endure for the sake of a good documentary. But however interesting and historically meaningful these ghost busting ceremonies may be, I serious doubt the powers of these idols when they can't even prevent their facial hair from catching fire?
佩服豪哥用心生活 還教導小朋友在地化 分享傳統文化給他們 給您讚❤100%
