New Experiences in Temple Culture

Dalongdong Bao'an Temple was built in 1830 by local notables. Its main deity is the God of Medicine, Baosheng Dadi. His birthday, the 15th of the 3rd lunar month, is celebrated with a grand festival, and in 1994 modern cultural elements were added to create the Baosheng Cultural Festival, adding splendid dynamism. The 2014 kick-off will feature clan-sponsored folk opera and bushi (the Buddhist practice of giving), and each day there will be Taiwanese opera, beiguan music, puppet theater, and other draws. On the evening before Baosheng Dadi's birthday (April 13th), enjoy Song Jiang Battle Array and 12 Grandmas and Sisters troupes, drum dancing, dragon dancing, orchestral music, a deity inspection procession, Fire Lion fireworks, and much more. Other festival highlights will include the Three Consecrations ritual, running across fire, guided heritage tours, drawing contests, and volunteer clinics.
